The bike
Bikes used to be arranged around how big their engines were: 250, 500, 750 or 1000cc. Weekday commuter, weekend sport riding, long trips, short hauls, solo or with a passenger—the CBR650F does it all. Honda claims this new motor produces a max output of 86 horsepower at 11,000 rpm and 46 foot-pounds of torque at 8,000 rpm.
Seat height comes in at 31.9 inches, and the bike has a wet weight of 454 pounds. Dual, wave-type 320 mm discs mated to twin-piston binders provide stopping power up front, while a single-piston caliper grabs a single 240 mm disc at the rear. The CBR650F retails for $8,499, while the CBR650F ABS goes for $8,999.
Options & Pricing
Pricing also feels a little high, given the competition and the buyer Honda is after. The Honda CBR650F has an MSRP of $8,499, while the CBR650F ABS will run you $500 more at $8,999.
With an MSRP of $6,799 for the ABS model, it's a pretty attractive option for people looking for an entry-level and sporty bike. The Honda CBR650F, in a vacuum, is a fine motorcycle. I would love to see Honda change tactics a bit and aim this at mature riders who want a small displacement inline-four to play with.
