Today’s style, tomorrow’s tech

If the perfect blend of speed, style, and pure adrenaline is what you seek, meet the CBR650R. With its high-revving inline-four engine, razor-sharp handling, and bold full-fairing design, it’s built to thrill. Now featuring our revolutionary E-Clutch, every ride—from your daily commute to winding canyon roads—just got a whole lot more exciting.

DOHC Inline-four engine

The inline four-cylinder powerplant provides unrivaled smoothness and unmatched revving, while its abundant low-to-midrange torque is felt with every twist of the throttle.

Four-into-one exhaust

A good exhaust should quiet the engine, fine-tune its power output, produce great sounds, and enhance the style. This four-into-one system excels in all areas, resonating perfectly as only an inline-four can.

Refined intake system

The twin-duct intake design is engineered to ram cool, dense air into the airbox, increasing horsepower.

Special engine tuning

Finely tuned valve timing and piston shapes improve engine response, especially from the idle to 8000 rpm. This delivers a big advantage in urban environments.

Twin-spar frame

A timeless design that Honda has perfected, the twin-spar frame is lightweight, forming a sturdy backbone and providing stellar handling.

Showa Big Piston Fork

Showa's Separate Function Front Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) design features light overall weight and excellent rigidity, as well as radial mounting points for the bike's twin front-brake calipers.

Radial-mount front brakes

Radial-mounted four-piston brakes feature effortless modulation, seamless linearity, and supreme power, allowing you to command the road.

Y-spoke aluminum wheels

Aluminum Y-spoke wheels reduce weight and increase agility, resulting in an improvement that can be felt with every turn.

Honda E-Clutch

Honda’s E-Clutch lets you shift with your left foot without needing the handlebar-mounted clutch—unless you want to. It also acts as a quick-shifter, enabling clutchless, full-throttle gear changes up and down for riders who crave performance.

Honda Selectable Torque Control

With Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC), confidence is always on-demand. By utilizing a variety of parameters managed by the ECU, it adjusts engine power to reduce rear-wheel slip. The HSTC can be turned on or off using a convenient handlebar-mounted switch.

Six-speed transmission

The tailored gear ratios of the six-speed transmission provide seamless shifts that enhance your ride with precision and performance.

Slipper clutch

The assist slipper clutch lightens clutch operation by approximately 12 percent compared to previous designs, which reduces rear-wheel hop during rapid downshifts.

Sportbike styling

Purposeful and stylish, this bike features a modern and aggressive design, with full-length sport fairings that are perfect for everything from urban commuting to spirited canyon rides.
