Honda CB650R 2020

Honda CB650R 2020

Honda's CB650R proves brilliantly that four-cylinder naked bikes with little displacement are also a real source of joy on the country road. The engine tuning gives enough pressure from the hairpin bend and rewards with a wonderful four-cylinder shriek after a short wait. The suspension components clearly attempt a balancing act between everyday life and sportiness, which is why unrest can quickly be found in the vehicle when approaching the cornering at a brisk pace. Somehow, however, this imperfection gives the Honda a lot of character and gives the rider the feeling of having to actively integrate himself into the action. For country road racers with a daily commute, a real recommendation!

Rev-happy engine

reasonable power

sporty seating position

wide handlebars

very rideable motorbike

comfortable for everyday use

pretty display.

Weakness in the chassis can be seen as a disadvantage

not as much power from the hairpin as two-cylinder competition

If you prefer a retro look in the 125cc class, the Honda CB125R is exactly the right bike. Not only does it look very grown-up, the components installed are also of very high quality, as is typical of Honda. Even though the engine only produces 13.3 hp, the CB125R compensates well for the missing 1.7 hp with its ready-to-ride weight of only 126 kg. On the chassis and braking system side, the Honda is clearly ahead of the competition and is reminiscent of much more powerful motorbikes in the naked bike class.

good responsiveness

powerful brakes

sporty chassis

high-quality workmanship

low weight

Limited seating position

could have more power
