Dynamic performance

The liquid-cooled 649 cc four-cylinder engine uses a compact internal architecture with cylinders canted forward 30 degrees for a lower centre of gravity and an impressive power-to-weight ratio.

Lots of low-end torque

The DOHC 16-valve cylinder head with direct cam actuation and 11.6:1 compression ratio contributes to the engine’s effortless performance at low and mid rpm, allowing you to smoothly pull away from 1,500 rpm.

zoom

Even more power

Upgrades to the pistons and valve timing boost power even higher, giving the CB650R an even sportier character.

HSTC torque control

The Honda Selectable Torque Control System (HSTC) controls torque output by detecting differences in the slip ratio between front and rear wheels. When the rear tire loses traction on a slippery surface, HSTC instantly kicks in and suppresses torque by controlling fuel injection to inhibit rear tire slip. User adjustable, the system can also be turned off.

Slipper clutch

Not only does the slipper clutch help to prevent rear-wheel lockup on downshifts, it also reduces the effort it takes to operate the clutch lever.

Quality engineering

Asymmetric piston skirts, ferrous spines on the cylinder sleeves and a silent SV cam chain using a Vanadium coating on its pins ensure reduced friction, minimal oil consumption, and improved heat transfer.

Quick response

The PGM-FI fuel injection system operates with information from four separate throttle body sensors for crisp and accurate throttle response.

Optimal fuel economy

Specific fuel-injection mapping and ignition timing work together to optimize fuel economy and deliver impressive range from the generous 15.4 L fuel tank.

zoom

Streetfighter design

The exposed side-swept downpipes pay homage to the vintage CB400 while offering a modern streetfighter design twist. The updated air intake, featuring twin air ducts on either side of the fuel tank, feeds the airbox with a larger volume of air (as opposed to the single, central duct of the old model), which also produces a throaty intake roar. The exhaust now also sports a larger bore tail pipe (up from 35 to 38.1 mm) inside the muffler to flow more gas and, with its exit pipe angled upwards, to also howl emotively for the rider’s benefit.

zoom

Rapid acceleration

With reduced weight, improved airflow, the numerous engine improvements, and a quick-shifting six-speed transmission, the CB650R produces thrilling acceleration as you click through the gears.

zoom

Sharp response

Twin-duct air intake works with the updated exhaust to improve airflow, increase power, and create a robust exhaust note.

zoom

Lighter frame

The CB650R's twin-spar steel frame is engineered to be light, strong and to improve mass centralization, providing the basis for the bikes sporty handling and high level of rider feedback.

Leading edge suspension

The CB650R’s front end is equiped with 41 mm Showa®’s Separate Function Fork (SFF) which offers reduced weight, superior rigidity, and excellent overall performance. An aluminum lower triple clamp completes the picture. The shock operates directly on the curved gravity-die-cast aluminum swingarm.

zoom

Lighter wheels

Y-shaped five-spoke wheels combine rigidity with reduced weight for more nimble handling and improved bump absorption.

zoom

Better braking

Radial-mounted four-piston calipers work the front 310 mm wave discs, while the rear brake squeezes a 240 mm disc. Standard ABS provides peace of mind during sudden stops or when riding on uncertain surfaces.

zoom

Neo Sport styling

With a fresh look, the CB650R represents the naked shape of things to come. Its bold Neo Sport styling and minimal bodywork come together to deliver an aggressive, clenched-fist appearance, further accented by the crisp LED headlight, clear-lens LED taillight, and LED turn signals.

zoom

Comfortable seating

The carefully shaped seat has a narrow middle profile that provides comfort while riding, and an easier reach to the ground at stops. The seat also includes ample room for a passenger.

zoom

Digital display

The backlit digital display tells you everything you need to know about your ride, with a speedometer, tachometer, odometer, gear indicator, fuel gauge, clock, warning lights, plus all trip details including average speed, fuel consumption rate and elapsed time.

Safe and sound

A compact wave-design ignition key offers increased security and reduced chance of breakage.
