You have to admit that header pipe is the nicest in the business
I'm thinking this bike is a very sweet spot in the line up. What a realistic, useable bike. I'm a glutton for too much, so naturally I love the 1000 the most of all. But this bike gets a big fat YES from me.
Exactly, a useable bike! So many of us get caught up in the over $20k, 200+ horsepower bikes that we forget about how much fun you can have on something like this. I do wish it was a bit cheaper but that's with everything these days and plus, I'm just cheap lol!
Hahaha the 1000 part cracked me up and I'm right there with you! I mean, how can you not love the way the 2021 CB1000R Black Edition looks? None of us really need the power but just look at it!
I bought 2022 model of this bike this month. I fell in love in the first sight in 2019 then i am filled with desire to buy. This bike much more a leader of his class. Money is all the time a big problem but not just for this bike or brand.. i mean globally commodity rising but the cb650r’s deserves this price
Well I have my CB650R 2021 matte black and all I can say she a keeper yeaaahh!! coming from a Honda NC750x dct 2018 and its a great bike but a got a little bored from the raiding from , but the CB man I am love, its a beauty . If you have the chance go for it you wont regret it.
I really like it, thanks you for share.
Looks le a nice bike and I like the look of the seating position. Might check it out at some stage
I love this bike. I just bought a CB650F, 2017..
Heck yeah, congrats on your CB650F! Ride safe out there...
Love the look of these, i want the 1000r black edition bad
Same here man, I'm usually not a fan of naked bikes but they hit a homerun on these with the styling and especially that CB1000R Black Edition. That thing is PIMP and they get major brownie points for stealing the headlight off of it and throwing it on the CB650R!
Appreciate the support bud ;)
Nice bike and very good description. I don’t like the air intake “ears” but nothing’s perfect.
Thank you!
Oh yeah, we can all pick them apart with little things we don't like here or there and I agree with you on the ears but overall - she's a looker and quite the bike. Not perfect but we're moving in the right direction!
Great video as always!!!
This one slipped by me! Thanks as always for the support bud, really appreciate you...
@@HondaProKevin anytime buddy!
W swojej skrócilem i podniosłem kąt tylnego ogonka i jest mega fajnie 😁
Sounds like a nice track bike!!!
UK fella living in Thailand. Just put deposit down on this bike in Jeans Blue. Stunning machine and very useable for Thailand.
Heck yeah, congrats on the new bike and maaan oh man am I jealous that you guys get that Jeans Blue color!
Dumb question, if you don't mind me asking... Are "big" bikes like this pretty rare in Thailand? Normally, I only see smaller displacement bikes being ridden over there from the videos you see floating around online and then you'll see a larger bike like this every now and then but they don't seem to be near as common.
@@HondaProKevin big bikes are getting a lot more frequent here. Triumph and HD very popular. Kawasaki and Honda building big bikes here also. Also many MCs here now.
Thanks God bless me I will buy one for myself
Most all motorcycles to me are beautiful. This Honda is very beautiful. I have been dying for the 1000 as well
Oh yeah, the new CB1000R is B-E-A-UTIFUL!
I'm considering buying CB650R but the black colour 2021 version has been sold out here where I live. When will the 2022 version be announced? When would it be possible to get it?
Such a beautiful bike! I’m torn between the Gen 3 MT-09 and this beauty here. I prefer the styling of the CB650r but I’m afraid I’ll get bored and crave more power. Coming from only super sport bikes not sure if I want to continue to be a hooligan or take a more mature route 😅 roughly they are around the same price range so definitely torn. 😭
Thankfully we live in Spain where we have four color options. A red one will be sitting at my casa soon.
Lucky lucky you! Congrats on picking her up soon bud!
Matt Jeans Blue is in mine garage for about month now. Best first bike i ever had hahahaha
I have this bike and love it, my only complaint is that there isnt a spot for swing arm spools
My dream bike
I just got my M endorsement 2 week's ago would this be a good bike for a beginner? Do you know if they are still making the cbr 650r?
Beautiful bike. Honda is coming out with some real winners but we need more scooters in the US market. 150cc won't cut it.
Yessir, they've got some winners on their hands in some segments that were really dead as of a few years ago so we're definitely moving in the right direction. But, like you said... we need more scooters! A couple of 50 / 150 models just isn't enough when we used to have a lineup with 50 / 80 / 110 / 150 / 250 / 300 / 600 lol. I don't think we need a million different models as we don't have the market here but we need more than what we've got right this moment, that's for sure!
my dream bike😩
Usable power for the street AND adjustable suspension for less than $10k? Winner. If only I could get it here in that grey…
And to boot she's a looker too! ...especially in that gray. If you really love that color though, it's not entirely difficult to ship parts over from overseas. I've done it in the past when a color scheme I really wanted wasn't imported into the USA. It would probably run you around $1,000-$1,200'ish for everything OEM and then you could turn around and sell your stock color to recoup some of the cost. But at the end of the day it is more of a headache and it could be solved easily if American Honda didn't gyp us on color options lol.
Beauty of a bike, do a black edition like that sexy beast 1000 but this is close enough
Will the CB650R matt paint become polished from normal wear & tare?
what a difference between 2019 and 2022 models?
A tone of options for CB650R in UK now
What's the head tube angle of this bike
Had my smoke grey bike a week and I love it.
I really dislike the left hand switch gear though,why change the indicator position & flasher switch,The traction control position is just stupid
Heck yeah, that's awesome man! I'm super jealous on your color too lol as that's my favorite. I really wish we got that color scheme but nooooo!
totally agree, its a minor but yet important thing, so stupid they changed this, i have only heard complaints about it.
cb650r 2021 have already quickshift?
I rode this bike recently. Very smooth, very beautiful bike. But I took sometime getting used to the clutch. I felt like I had to release the clutch a lot more than usual to reach its breaking point. I'm kinda new to motorcycles. Is that common? But love the bike, so smooth, so light, smooth gearbox great brakes
Yeah man every clutch is different
yep thats normal on bikes. its different for each one. most motorcycles come with easily adjustable clutch levers though so you can change the breaking point.
'Im a 'big' fan of 'Honda' bikes' this bike look 'really' so cool😉👍 ..thank u for updating..'when' this bike going to 'launch' in 'INDIAN' market..??🤨🤔
Thanks for the support! You could kinda say I'm a big fan too haha ;) . I wish I could give you an accurate answer on that one but I don't currently have any inside info for India with the CB650R. Let me do some more digging though and I'll see if I can find anything out.
Already available in india. Check out big wing india
Any idea when honda announce 2022 version? Also, what is the chance of keeping this lovely manual transmission? I’ve never liked any transmissions other than classic 6 speed ones.
We'll see the 2022 CB650R within the next 30 days. Oh yeah, Honda is definitely keeping this manual 6-speed gearbox around for these!
@@HondaProKevin Thanks, mate! Really excited!!!
good video
Thank you, really appreciate the kind words!
Kevin: What...only black?
Me: Picking up mine today in black. [lives in Thailand]
lol yeah buddy, we get the shaft over here a lot of the time on color options!
Nice, congrats on picking one up! How are you liking it so far?
Is it just me or is there an
oil spill underneath?
How do I get one of this
Do you have an idea of what color the 2022 model will be? Or when they will release it?
I can't speak on colors yet but I'll be able to blab all about it within the next 60 days ;)
@@HondaProKevin yes!!! 🙌🏼
Wonder if the model year 2022 will bring a TFT display and maybe some other extras/upgrades…
Doubtful, since we just saw some changes thrown in there. Anything is possible though ;)
Cuando sale el modelo 2022?
We have a new model of 2022? Because im trying to wait for this honda
@@HondaProKevin what r diferences between 2019 and 2021 models?
I heard in some other video I cannot longer find the build for these there are some japanese if their serial code has a J in it and some other as always in thailand, can you confirm this?
That's correct. The first letter or letters tells you where it was manufactured. J means Japan and then you have ML for Thailand.
owning CB650R since 2019, 12.000km on it now. It's been good, but im going to get a custom map for it, getting bit tired of the throttle respons. By all means this isnt the worst in that regard, miles better than early MT09's etc, but still it isnt how it should be, throttle respons is off and certain parts of the map is flat, around 7-8000 rpm there is s flat spot in the power curve on this bike. All gettting fixed by a custom ECU map soon. Keeping stock exhaust since all aftermarket besided teh akra's looks like crap. And the akra that i want is not road legal here...to much money to throw away if i get pulled over.
One note though: The recording doesn't capture the stock sound very well. It sound much better irl.
Any change to the footrests? Saw the riding position n wasnt too keen...
P.s 48 mpg isnt great either no?
No sir, no changes there.
Ehh, technically it's not "great" but it's really not that bad for a naked four-cylinder that doesn't have much going for it in the way of aero. There are bikes with smaller engines and less horsepower that pull in worse numbers, so I wouldn't say it's too bad ;)
@@HondaProKevin No perhaps being a bit harsh there as its very punchy for a 650...
Am leaning more towards the CB 500x as a first bike. No thrills but good solid practice👍🤞
Do you have any infor that whether a cb650r 2022 or 2023 is coming?
Did you get any info on 2022?
Best style* by far. Give it to me in a dct Honda! Yup I’m one of those
I'm right there with you bud, throw DCT as an option on everything! It doesn't hurt anything but opens up the door for even more riders. It won't be much longer though, trust me...
Side note, I've got a dumb question lol. What is a "sully"?
@@HondaProKevin autocorrect. I meant style 😂
Lol ahhh, I thought it might have been slang for something. Gotta love autocorrect sometimes!
How much better is this engine, over the 471cc? Debating staying within the Honda brand.👍
I wouldn't say one is "better" than the other as it depends on what you would define as being better but... The inline-four in this 650 is on another level when it comes to performance over the 471cc engine used in the 500 models. We're talking about double the performance and plus you get that high RPM scream from the exhaust note that you just can't get out of the parallel-twin.
@@HondaProKevin Sorry about that, it was a reference to it's character as I find my 471cc boring but reliable.
In april i chose between this bike and triumpd trident but my heart pulled to the honda. the lesson: always listen to your heart when buying a motorbike.It is an awesome bike mainly above 7000rpm like an electric locomotive.
why did you choose honda not triumph? i love the look of triumph, cant make decidion which to choose... :(
@@labasrytas2876 because of its look. Honda is modern and classic at the same time. Linear performance, smoothness, premium quality. Triumph is cool-looking bike but it just did not fit my temperament. Honda did. Anyhow, you decide. You won't regret it.
@@sandorharaszti4359 mate, have you riden triumph aswell? if yes, how is superior to honda ( not counting the looks which is taste related)? i know triumph has abs and traction control; does honda have it? by the way, i looking at 2019 honda model , thats suit my budget
@@labasrytas2876 i don't say triumph or honda is better. Triumph has a rain mode. Anyway both is capable of the same. Any of two someone choose it is a question of taste. I think
I just bought it. 2023
All I wanna know is the quarter mile time for the cb650r
I haven't seen anyone take the latest gen down the track yet but I would wager that it's a high 11 second bike bone stock, with a good rider. It's all on the rider though. I used to be into drag racing bikes every weekend and it'll blow your mind at just how many people show up with a Busa for example and can't crack into the 10s while I'm running 10.60s on a stock CBR600RR lol.
did they change the display? old display looks awful
Yessir, they changed it in 2019 and then again for 2021 to make it a little better.
The CBR needs to loose weight, to gain better handling and more color options.
This is the most beautiful motorbike ever and beautifully made but I wish it had a big twin or triple. I can’t get on with the angry sounding 4 cylinder .
Oh yeah, she's a looker for sure! Lol that just goes to show we all like to float our boats a little differently so-to-say as I'd rather have an inline-four over a twin but I would love to see Honda jump in the triple game. That would be cool!
@@HondaProKevin I do love the 4 cylinder sound and power but I’m not someone who rides slowly and I think I’d get too much attention and feel a bit anti social keeping the engine on the boil in my high traffic daily commute . As a weekend bike I’d be happier with it .
buy mt07 yamaha or triumph trident
A beautiful bike.
I don't like the fact that they don't have options for slip-on exhaust.
You know, I hadn't realized that until you brought it to my attention lol but I don't see any slip-on exhausts out there. That sucks as usually that's the route most people take.
1:53 Honda has confirmed a CB500R?
Nah, they haven't "confirmed" it. I may be wrong, I may be right though as I have been in the past lol ;)
It's colored "jeans blue" because supposedly it mimics the color blue of jeans. It's not called blue jeans because it's not a pair of jeans colored blue.
lol ahhh, that makes sense!
Honda not offering enough color options is a real turnoff. There are times I love a bike in a certain color only to find it is only available like that in Europe.
Yes. And Honda is the worst. UNLESS YOU WANT A GROM. 4 choices there! Wtf Honda. The fact that the parts and colors have already been made and aren’t available in North America is the stab in the back. Europe will straight up get higher performance/spec’d models than us. Currently they have the CB300R blacked out with better suspension. CB1100 in the past among others.
Honda, like their cars, has realised they are a building platform. They flood the market with options. You dont wanna be creative get a suzuki.
@@kignacio Yeah but you can have the new 600RR we don't have it at all
None of my local dealerships have it, it's basically non existed in my part of California which is sucks.
Non existent in Texas also. I just purchased a used 2019 CB650RA with 1300 miles. Being shipped from Colorado. Can’t wait!
Dude. Seriously. Been looking everywhere and zip. Nada. Sucks 😖😭
@@jakeguerra4235 Same, all around California, none, except used over MSRP.
@@mkim2799 nice! Congrats!
Gonna have to have it ordered possibly 😅 my second pick was the Yamaha MT-09. Decisions. It’s much more attainable though.
Price too high in this segment in india
They are discouraging medium to small bikes in US
I wouldn't say discouraging as we have had more smaller and medium sized bikes released in the US over the last few years but we need more. More is always better lol!
@@HondaProKevin I remember 2008 between economic crisis and fuel reaching $4 a gallon was what started a huge demand for smaller bikes. Suddenly people realized they were spending too much for gas and daily driving vehicles too excessive for single passenger no cargo trips. Before that the motorcycle market in America was so high end by global standards.
@@Kraken9911 4$ per gallon would be an absolute dream over here in Germany. We almost got that low last year, due to Covid, but right now it's at around 7.8$ per gallon and rising.
But I guess that's why Europe is full of smaller more fuel efficient cars.
So great video but wipe the oil leak crap off the floor! before going around the bike with a video! its dripping something! look at 11.32 it looks as if its still dripping?
The reason why there is only one color in the US market is because bike is not that common of a vehicle in here. Especially if you look at the bikers community many of them talk shit on a Japanese bike like their American bikes are more reliable or better (it's not - not in the US and not in any other country in the world. A Murican bike can never outcompete a Japan in reliability so accept it American bike fan bois and gurls) so it makes sense to not import a lot of option in here cause it's a loss cause anyway.
She's definitely a babe. ..... (Shame about the boney-assed seat.)
100% a babe! and hey, we look past the seat when they have a pretty face ;) lol
Comment😊
Lol thanks bud, much appreciated ;)
