Honda’s Middle-weight Neo Sports Café CB650R
Contents
The 2020 Honda CB650R is one of the most attractive and versatile motorcycles in the Honda Neo Sports Café line-up. This minimalist and futuristic naked beast redefines the nature of standard motorcycles, dragging the competition kicking and screaming into the 21st century. This is the future of standard motorcycles.
The stripped down nature of the CB650R takes its styling cues directly from Honda’s flagship CB1000R model, promoting a less-is-more aesthetic with as much machinery on show as possible. The design-language features smooth lines, naked aggression, and futuristic accessories: it’s a cyberpunk dream made manifest.
Powered by Honda’s 649cc liquid cooled in-line four cylinder engine, there’s more to the CB650R than good looks. With up to 94 horsepower on tap and 47 lb-ft of peak torque available, the CB650R delivers versatile power across the rev range, appealing to sports-focused thrill seekers and casual commuters alike.
Equipped with Honda Selectable Torque Control, an Assist/Slipper clutch, aluminum wheels, LCD instrumentation, and attention-grabbing LED lighting, the CB650R is a stylish ride for the discerning rider.
It’s a standard motorcycle, re-imagined for the modern world.
For 2020, the CB650R is available with ABS standard and with a single color option: Chromosphere Red.

2020 Honda CB650R Features
Wow! amazing design and perfect for long drive.
I bought the 2020 cb650r in April and I can’t stop riding it. I love it. It really is a wolf in sheep clothing. I didnt expect the absolute smoothness of it. I would love to be the 1000cc as well. I can’t imagine.
How tall are you? I am 6’4/6’5, and I wonder if I am too tall for this bike.
Thanks for the info
