CBR650R

The CBR650R looks just the way a modern sportbike should—all business, with a generous dose of style. Check out MotoGP World Champion Marc Marquez’s dominating Honda RC213V and you’ll see where the CBR650R gets its good looks. Plus, the bodywork is aerodynamic and refined, so you can tuck in at speed.

Comfortable for casual, weekday use and more aggressive weekend sport rides alike. The seat/bar/peg relationship in any motorcycle is critical, and with the CBR650R, you’ll truly feel like a part of this bike.

A bike as versatile as the CBR650R needs plenty of range and the 15.4L fuel tank provides just that.

In addition to the usual speedometer and tachometer, the full-flat instrument panel features an LCD readout with indicators for gear position, water temperature, peak-hold display of engine RPM, upshift indicator and more.

The CBR650R uses an eye-catching dual-lens LED headlight that casts a powerful, scientifically tuned beam. It’s both brighter and smaller than a conventional design and contributes in a big way to the CBR650R’s sense of style. Brake lights and indicators are also LED.

Mufflers need to accomplish four things: They need to quiet the engine without robbing power, they need to help tune engine output, they need to sound great, and they’re a huge style element on any bike. The CBR650R’s exhaust knocks it out of the park on all counts, and sounds like only an inline four can.

The aluminium wheels feature helps reduce unsprung weight. These lighter hoops have a greater influence on handling than the numbers alone suggest.

With Honda Selectable Torque Control System (HSTC) the CBR650R offers you peace of mind during aggressive riding conditions. The system adjusts engine power to optimize torque at the rear wheel, reducing rear-wheel slip. And here’s the best part: you can turn it on or turn it off with a handlebar-mounted switch.

The CBR650R’s front suspension showcases some leading-edge technology. The 41mm fork is equipped with Showa®’s Separate Function Fork (SFF) which offers reduced weight, superior rigidity, and excellent overall performance. An aluminium lower triple clamp completes the picture.

Our Anti-Lock Braking System can be a big help in making controlled stops in less-than-ideal conditions, like on wet pavement or other compromised surfaces. It’s a great choice whether you’re using your new bike as a commuter or just riding it for fun, since it helps you stop with added confidence. Featuring huge 310mm discs on the front, the CBR650R also comes with radial-mounted four-piston callipers. The result is premium sportbike stopping power that’s linear and easy to modulate. A 240mm hydraulic disc at the rear complements the twin front discs for plenty of stopping power.

The CBR650R refines a classic Honda design. The twin-spar steel diamond frame incorporates pressed pivot plates, engine hangers, seat rails, and other components that all reduce weight. It’s light, strong, and provides the basis for the CB650R’s stellar handling.
