Every day is a journey. Start yours today with the CB650R. Distinctive performance of raw sports street fighters and stripped-down Neo Sports Café styling. The CB650R – with style, suspension and equipment updates – is ready to take you on an unforgettable, urban adventure.

ALUMINIUM WHEELS

The CB650R is equipped with premium 5-spoke Y-shaped aluminium wheels. The innovative design optimises rigidity while cutting down on thickness, giving you maximum strength with minimum weight.

NEW SHOWA SFF-BP USD FORKS

41mm Showa Separate Fork Function Big Piston (SFF-BP) USD forks are an upgrade for the CB650R, and offer supple response with excellent feel for front tyre grip. They match, perfectly the frame’s tuned rigidity balance and quick-steering geometry.

FOUR-CYLINDER ENGINE

The inline four-cylinder, DOHC 16-valve, EURO5-specification engine produces 70kW with strong mid-range torque of 64Nm. It has a 12,000rpm redline and features Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) to maintain rear wheel traction. The ignition switch is housed in the front of the fuel tank cover, to create a minimalist frontal area.

ENHANCED COCKPIT CONTROL

The CB650R features rich digital LCD instruments with new, easy-to-read design; included in the display are Gear Position and Shift Up indicators. The tapered handlebars are now set at a wider, and offer easy leverage for fast steering reaction. You are the king of the urban jungle. Show the world what you’re capable of.

FULL LED LIGHTING

The lighting system of the CB650R is optimally engineered. All lighting is premium LED. The circular headlight, equipped with a sharp black bezel, throws out an intense, blue-tinted beam. The taillight is minimal, and tucks away above the steel number plate mount.

RADIAL-MOUNT CALIPERS

The urban jungle can be unpredictable. That’s why you need a motorcycle that will give you smooth, complete control in any weather. Dual, radial-mount four-piston calipers grip 310mm floating discs, complemented by a single-piston rear caliper and 240mm disc. Dual channel ABS maintains smooth control in wet or dry conditions. Conquer the road, rain or shine.

LESS IS MORE
Minimum fuss, maximum motorcycle.

The CB650R features a sleek, streamlined design to match your sophisticated urban style. The bike’s ultra-compact, powerful stance channels the retro-minimalism of the CB1000R Neo Sports Café. It blends curved lines with taut angles and, now, is even more dynamic with newly-chiselled side panels and sleek rear number plate mount. With the CB650R, less gives you more.

ADDICTIVE ENGINEERING
Built to be used. And enjoyed.

The inline four-cylinder DOHC 16-valve engine is built to be used. Close, short gearing and a smooth rush of power delivers exhilarating acceleration – and then there’s the evocative howl as rpm climbs high. It’s addictive. An assist/slipper clutch eases upshifts and manages hard down changes, while Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) maintains rear wheel traction. It’s an engineering masterpiece. Have fun with it.

FULLY EQUIPPED
Everything you need. Nothing to get in your way.

A premium motorcycle deserves premium equipment. Full LED lighting adds a sophisticated, contemporary edge, and the distinctive circular headlight throws out a penetrating blue-tinted beam. There also now a USB socket under the seat, for charging your device and the instrument display – with improved clarity – is a crisp LCD dash, and includes Gear Position and Shift Up indicators.
