A THOROUGHLY MODERN THRILL
A THOROUGHLY MODERN THRILL
Sportbikes are a special breed: explosive power, full faired styling, nimble handling. And with the Honda CBR650R, we've taken sportbike expectations to a whole new level. It starts with the high-revving inline four, offering near-endless power that's at home on the track and city alike. Then there's the chassis: light, strong, delivering excellent feedback and comfort. This year's CBR650R features anti-lock brakes too--a real bonus for street riders. And as for the styling - this bike stands out everywhere you take it, with design cues pulled straight from our supersports. This is a sportbike designed for the modern era, with comfort, performance and style that once experienced, is never forgotten.
COMFORT
• SPORTING RIDING POSITION: 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.
ENGINEERING
• TWIN-SPAR FRAME: The CBR650R refines a classic Honda design. The twin-spar frame incorporates 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.
• FOUR-INTO-ONE EXHAUST: Power, style and an unmistakable growl--you get all three with the four-into-one exhaust system on the CBR650R.
• REAR-DISC BRAKE: A 240mm hydraulic disc at the rear complements the twin front discs for plenty of stopping power.
HANDLING
• HONDA SELECTABLE TORQUE CONTROL (HSTC): 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.
• 41MM FRONT SUSPENSION
• RADIAL-MOUNT FRONT BRAKES: Featuring huge 310mm discs, the CBR650R also comes with radial-mounted four-piston calipers. The result is premium sportbike stopping power that's linear and easy to modulate.
PERFORMANCE
• 649CC DOHC ENGINE: Engines like this are what Honda does best. The four-cylinder design makes it smoother and faster revving than most twins, and offers ample low- to midrange torque, plus plenty of power through the entire rev range.
STYLE
• SPORTBIKE STYLING: 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.
• 4.1-GALLON FUEL TANK: A bike as versatile as the CBR650R needs plenty of range, and the 4.1-gallon fuel tank provides just that.
• INSTRUMENTS: 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.
