Honda CBR650R 2019 Motorcycle Specification

The Honda CBR650R 2019 is a sport-oriented motorcycle designed to deliver a blend of performance, style, and versatility. It is powered by a 649cc liquid-cooled, inline four-cylinder engine that produces robust mid-range torque and a peak output of approximately 94 horsepower at 12,000 rpm. The engine is equipped with PGM-FI fuel injection for precise throttle response and optimal fuel efficiency. It features a six-speed transmission with a slipper clutch that facilitates smoother downshifts and reduces rear-wheel hop during aggressive deceleration.

The CBR650R's chassis is constructed from a steel diamond frame, providing a balance between rigidity and weight. Its suspension system includes a 41mm Showa Separate Function Fork (SFF) USD at the front and a monoshock at the rear, both offering adjustable preload to tailor the ride according to different preferences and conditions. The bike is equipped with dual radial-mount four-piston calipers gripping 310mm discs at the front and a single-piston caliper with a 240mm disc at the rear, supported by a dual-channel ABS for enhanced braking confidence and safety.

With a dry weight of around 207 kg (456 lbs), the CBR650R maintains agility and stability. It features a sporty riding position with a slightly forward-leaning stance, complemented by clip-on handlebars and rear-set foot pegs. The digital LCD instrument panel provides clear visibility of essential information, including speed, tachometer, gear position, and fuel gauge. Aesthetic elements such as full LED lighting, an aerodynamic fairing inspired by the CBR1000RR, and a sleek tail section contribute to its aggressive and modern look. The Honda CBR650R 2019 offers a dynamic riding experience suitable for both urban commuting and spirited weekend rides.
