Engine & Drivetrain |
 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. |
Balanced powertrain
Tuned for increased torque and effortless performance in low and mid-range power, the versatile 649 cc DOHC features direct cam actuation and 11.6:1 compression to increase peak power delivery at a thrilling 11,000 RPM. |
Even more power
The pistons and valve timing boost power even higher, giving the CB650R its 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. This system is user adjustable and can 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. |
Streetfighter design
The exposed side-swept downpipes pay homage to the vintage CB400, while also offering a modern streetfighter design twist. The exhaust now sports a larger bore tail pipe angled upwards to increase airflow while producing an emotive sound. |
 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. |
 Sharp response
Twin-duct air intake works with the updated exhaust to improve airflow, increase power, and create a robust exhaust note. |

Chassis & Suspension |
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. |
Suspension
Showa 41mm SFF-BP USD forks are a major upgrade; a pressure separation damper in one fork tube and spring mechanism in the other deliver high damping performance and lighter weight. Together with the use of a larger sized piston the result is increased feel, bump absorption and control. Adjustable for 7-stage spring preload, the single-tube monoshock operates directly on the curvaceous gravity die-cast aluminium swingarm. |
 Wheels
Y-shaped five-spoke blacked-out wheels combine rigidity with reduced weight for more nimble handling and improved bump absorption. |
 Brakes
Featuring huge 310 mm discs, the CB650R also comes with radial mounted four-piston calipers in the front with 240 mm disc at the rear. This paired with the two-channel ABS results in premium sportbike stopping power that’s linear and easy to modulate. |

Additional Features |
 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. |
 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. |
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. For 2021 readability has been improved with a change of LED angle and font size |
Safe and sound
A compact wave-design ignition key offers increased security and reduced chance of breakage. |
