Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CB650R 2023

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 provides enough pressure from the hairpin bend and rewards with a wonderful four-cylinder shriek after a short wait. The chassis components offer a solid balance between everyday life and sportiness.

engine with good revving

adequate power

sporty seating position

wide handlebars

comfortable for everyday use

somewhat sluggish

display functional, but not exciting

Triumph America 2011

All in all, the America is a motorbike that goes straight to the heart for a reasonable price and doesn't just look pretty. For a motorbike of this class, braking and handling are somewhat unusual, but the lean angle clearance is rather sad, as is usual for this class of motorbike.

Bubbling sound

simple, transparent handling

pleasant engine.

Lean angle freedom restricted.
