Default Learn me about the Honda CBF

I'm looking for a road bike to use primarily for commuting to and from work. Going to look at a 2002 CBF 900 tomorrow. Has anyone ever ridden one? What should I expect/look for?

From the bit of research I've done it seems like this model was more popular in the UK than over here, but I'm having a hard time finding rider reviews of this particular bike.

Thoughts or experiences?

I own a 2004 Honda 599 / CB600F.

They are a very fun bike to ride!

I know the 599 and 919 have their differences, but I would highly recommend the 919 as a commuter bike! You'll love it.

I have a 919. Nothing particular when going to check it out, just the normal stuff (chain, tires, brakes, fluids).
The only issue I've ever heard on these bikes were their FPR's.
I put ~12k miles on mine last year with light touring, they are pretty bulletproof.
