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!

The CBF goes a little more in the sensible direction, i.e. more range, even more riding comfort and higher reserves when fully loaded. The XJ6 is clearly bolder, rides more to the heart and, despite the absolutely sensible technical data, also passes as a casual motorbike for younger riders.
