With the demise of the CBR 600 RR, the CBR 650 F would almost become Honda’s mid-size sports car. More aggressive design and more powerful engine are partly in this sense. But would this evolution make it sharp and efficient enough to fulfill this role? ?
No, at no point. Because let us not forget that this CBR is a streamlined version of the CB 650 roadster. And we remain in a philosophy and services of Sport-GT, far from the radicality and the performances of fire the pistarde. Almost nobody wants SuperSports anyway. Will this evolution of the CBR 650 F have enough arguments to place itself on the chessboard? ?
Honda took little risk in the pencil stroke of this CBR. The optical unit is certainly the only item that really takes on a tainted expression. A likely desire to ape the CBR 1000 RR guides the style of this 650, while leaving it to the versatility to trace the whole of the overall philosophy. The dash does not change, still releasing that feeling of being in a Honda Civic and the joy that comes with it. Maybe it’s time to move on to something more fun.
Note the small perforated gills under the seat. Something would overheat over there ?
The exhaust has somewhat suffered the throes of standards to be met. Anyway, the bike had no choice and had to adapt to it to stay in the range. The engine finds its account, and bombs the chest.
With work on the intake and exhaust, the 4-cylinder block gains 4 horsepower and a bit of torque. 91 donkeys on call, that will be enough for the daily missions and to have fun on weekends. In addition, the gear ratios have been shortened from 2 to 5. The CBR 650 ‘II’ will therefore offer a clear gain in acceleration, allowing a sporty rhythm to be considered..
The chassis will not be jostled. Neutral, easy and obedient over the previous generation, he was reappointed. The front end, however, has Showa’s good grace. A model type SDBV with double valve improves the comfort and the behavior of the CBR. Nissin 2-piston brake calipers are reworked, still biting 320mm wave rotors.
On the finish side, the engine has a premium appearance with bronze-colored crankcases and rocker cover, while the swingarm blends in with the dark.
In this evolution, the CBR 650 F gained two kilos, thus sitting 213 kilos on the scale. A narrower saddle will allow you to better put your feet on the ground.
Thus, Honda is committed to kindly perpetuate its complacent CBR. A little more watts, a hint of aggressiveness, unchanged versatility for a roadster that wants to be more sporty. Honda’s ease of driving and a low price will help it find its place.
