  • The PERFECT exhaust setup for the CB650R with the AKRAPOVIC FULL SYSTEM EXHAUST is by having the silencer / baffles / db killer installed. In this video, I share my experience on why this setup is absolutely perfect for me. Enjoy!

    Hey man, a fellow Malaysian rider here. I was looking to get a bigger bike and was undecided for the longest time. Your videos helped me decide on the CB650R. I picked a red one up a month ago and made the right choice. It’s an all-rounder, and looking to keep this for a couple of years. This bike feels super underrated in Malaysia.
    Looking forward to more content from you.

      @@RUBBERNMETAL I've received my bike yesterday still don't have experience with motorcykles. I wanted to ask about one thing. Took it for a short ride cause I still does not have even licence, passed only theoretical part of the exam and I'm waiting for better weather to finish it. But like I said during yesterday ride I was going around 70 km/h and I started to downshift. I couldn't downshift from 2nd to 1st when my bike was still moving. Is it normal in cb650r or I'm doing something wrong? It was like 5th 4th 3rd 2nd and went to N. After each downshift I let go the clutch obviously but still 1st was available only when the bike copletly stopped and than when kicked it down again I got my first gear.

      I haven’t found a tuner I trust yet for the remap but I would like to feel the proper tune tho. It’s also my daily so I’d rather keep it stock engine wise. Had a remapped gsxr before this which did around 10-15km/l in terms of fuel consumption. Not ideal.

I like this bike, but after ~2 hours on this bike, my lower back was in agony, imnot that old, and ride a slightly more upright bike ATM, but just wondering if it was just me, or whether it's something you get used to?

      Hey there. Thanks for the subscribe!
      Generally I would need to stretch and rest a bit after an hour’s ride mostly due to the hard seat more than the strain on my lower back. Maybe you’re taller than me hence you’re more leaned forward hence putting pressure on your back.
