Honda CBR650R 2021

Honda CBR650R 2021

The 2021 update of the Honda CBR650R solves the biggest problem of the previous year's model: the overly comfortable chassis. The new Showa fork gives the sports bike a much sportier response, which is immediately noticeable on winding country roads. However, one should not expect a thoroughbred super sports bike, but a road sports bike suitable for everyday use, on which one can experience a lot of pleasure in the saddle both on the way to work and on a weekend ride.

Resilient four-cylinder

comfortable seating position

improved chassis for 2021

cool look

easy to operate.

Engine sluggish below 8,000 revolutions

LC display now looks old-fashioned

Suzuki SV650X 2021

Suzuki SV650X 2021

Retro is trendy, retro is cool. The people at Suzuki have also recognised this, and although they are not launching many new products for 2018, they are launching a really cool one - the SV650X. Not much had to be changed to place it in the ranks of modern cafe racers: Headlight fairing, paintwork, side panels, saddle and low handlebar ends are enough for the great result. Above all, the front-wheel-oriented seating position suits it well, but does not make it significantly more uncomfortable. The suspension can only be adjusted at the rear, but the lively engine is a blast and the price is right.

Agile, lively and charismatic V2 engine

easy handling, easy to ride despite low handlebars

pleasant seating position with low saddle height

successful gear graduation

low weight

inconspicuous appearance

exhaust look

telescopic fork too soft

no anti-hopping clutch
