Does anyone know Hondas future plans for the CBR600F?

I am looking to buy a new CBR600F with a forthcoming pay rise - it's light, agile and pretty much perfect. But dealers are running out of 2007 CBR600Fs and there's no mention of it in the 2008 line-up or on Hondas website - Are they just junking the concept or are they planning on making a new one? Are there any other bikes that compare to the CBR600F?

I've just bought a CBR600F as my first bike - being delivered Monday! During my search i spoke to a number of dealers one of which said the 600F has been discontinued so won't be in the 2008 range at all.

If you can believe this he said too many people have been buying the 600F taking sales away from the CBR600RR so Honda's solution is to ditch the F.

Thinking logically you would think if the F is that popular there will be a replacement along sooner or later.

Despite officially denying it I have it on good authority from a dealer that the next CBR range are all going to be diesel powered. (Turbo of course).
They have been getting support and info from Audi and there diesel Le Mans cars.

It's probably one of the most popular models they make, I would be extremely surprised if they drop it. If anyone does have concrete knowledge, you could probably make some good money selling it to Motorcycle News...

har har , nice one sidsid
