2022 Honda® CB650R Base

2022 Honda® CB650R

Some motorcycles try to do it all, but end up not doing anything well. Not our CB650R. Here’s a bike that lets you ride your own ride, and have a blast doing it. And it all starts with its engine—a high-revving inline four. Not only does it make plenty of power, but it’s super smooth and offers instant acceleration. Plus, just about no engine configuration fits a bike like this so well. Styling? That doesn’t paint you into someone else’s corner either—just timeless good looks that let you be you. Great suspension, a responsive chassis, anti-lock brakes, six-speed transmission and comfortable rider accommodations all make this the multitool of our streetbike lineup, and give you a machine you’ll be proud to ride for years to come.

Features may include:

• 649cc DOHC ENGINE

Engines like this are what Honda does best. The four-cylinder design makes it smoother and faster revving than most twins, and offers ample low- to midrange torque, plus plenty of power through the entire rev range.

• NEO-SPORTS CAFÉ STYLING

This bike looks unique, because it is. The Neo-Sports Café design combines elements from pure sportbikes and sporting nakeds. Sometimes less is more, and the CB650R makes a bold styling statement wherever you ride it.

• SHOWA® SFF-BP FRONT SUSPENSION

Great handling and precise steering demand a premium front suspension. That’s why the CB650R now features a Showa Separate Function Front Fork Big Piston unit (SFF-BP). It offers both reduced weight, superior rigidity, and excellent overall performance.

• HANDLEBAR

A bike’s handlebar makes a huge difference in how you relate to your machine. Last year we fine-tuned the handlebar angle, and everyone agrees it’s one of our best, making tight, slow-speed turns easier.
