I have major problems with my bike and I ran across a 87 cbr100f engine. I havent made an offer on it because I dont know if it will be compatible with my 88 cbr1000f. Any takes ?

Hi, I don't think you'll find any differences between the two. It should be a straight bolt in deal.
I bought an '87 factory service manual for my '88 model, haven't come across any differences yet working on my bike. You may even be able to go all the way to the last of the carbureted models in the cbr1000's, and find that they may well interchange. A motorcycle salvage yard should be able to tell you what years interchange for sure. Good luck.

87 and 88 are the same bike from top to bottom
motor is the same from 87 to 96 just a few bolt on changes
