Comfortable Riding Position

One of the most rider-friendly aspects of the Neo-Sports Café design is how you sit on the CB650R. You’re ready for sporty riding, but you’re still comfortable. You can see what’s going on around you and enjoy longer rides with little fatigue.

New Showa SFF-BP Front Suspension

The Showa Separate Function Fork Big Piston unit (SFF-BP) gives you great handling and precise steering, with reduced weight, superior rigidity, and excellent overall performance.

Easy-to-read LCD screen features digital speedometer, tachometer, gear position indicator, clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators.

649cc 4 cylinder engine

There is something special about riding a 4 cylinder motorcycle. The smoothness, effortless acceleration, linear power delivery… it’s just an incredible feeling. The 649cc, DOHC 16-valve engine gives you ample low- to midrange torque, plus plenty of power through the entire rev range.

LED lighting

Full set of bright LED lights (headlight, taillight and indicators) deliver great visibility.

Disc brakes with ABS

Front and rear disc brakes, combined with standard Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps you make smoother, more controlled stops under less-than-ideal riding conditions.

Honda Selectable Torque Control

Honda Selectable Torque Control System (HSTC) the CB650R offers you peace of mind in tricky riding conditions. The system adjusts engine power to optimize torque at the rear wheel, reducing rear-wheel slip. You can also turn it on or off with a handlebar-mounted switch.

Slipper Clutch

The assist slipper clutch lightens clutch operation and that reduces rear-wheel hop during rapid downshifts.
