i bought this bike in may of 2021. Amazing little bike. Ive owned Harleys, Hondas, Kawasaki. Ive never had a bike handle like this. Its very poised. It goes where you tell it to...every time. You come out of the corner the same way every time. You feel good the whole way through the turn. If you think you want one bad? Get one.. Its not the fastest bike on the market by a long shot. But it will take you sweetest ride. And it looks incredible. I love mine. I would recommend this unit to anyone who wants a great ride.
This looks like a 2019 version of the beloved CBR600F4i: a comfortable and faired sportsbike for the streets with ~100 hp. It's so hard to find a new inline-4 bike with LED lights under $10k USD, but Honda have done it.
@@EazyTheRecon Difference that the F4I was only one notch under the more Race Replica-esque models of the competition at the time, this thing is nowhere near the front of the pack
@@Nightdare f4i does 160mph this probably tops out at 135 was looking at getting a f4i but think will be to much bike for me where as the 650r seems softer on acceleration
@@socialising6037 The F4I is a 600, doesn't even have 100hp at the wheel As long as you're not launching at WOT, it can be as gentle as your right hand dictates it Would the 650r be your first bike?
I have a 2017 CBR1000RR and a 2016 CBR500R, yet I can’t stop thinking of this bike. The 2019 CBR650R fixes the few things wrong with the 500, mainly in the power department. I bet this is the kind of bike you can rack up some serious miles on.
I just bought one and I have to say you can ride it all day long. It will cruise or you can give it some throttle and let it rip. The seat is very comfortable and you can ride almost fully upright.
I've got this bike (in Australia), and totally love it. Your review was a major factor in my purchase. I love the way you filmed this review and matched the music too. I think I've watched the review 50 times already, and still enjoy seeing it. Thank you.
@@hypasheep I love this bike. I’d definitely choose this over the 500cc if you can. While I wish it was derestricted, there’s more than enough power for plenty of fun. I’m still toying with the idea of getting it derestricted though. Mostly worried about how this might affect my licence 😂🤣 I also love the Matt black colour with the devil red highlights. It looks wicked.
Lovely middle weight bike and it's a Honda, enough said. Good review and nice to hear Dan say; "I don't want to drop the bike because it is not mine, whilst getting off the gravel infested road". Respect in the right sense of the word. They seem to do that scraping-off-tarmac everywhere. Cheap solution to make it look as if they make the roads better I suppose but it makes it worse and very dangerous whilst causing paint damage etc to the bike, God forbid if you come off it.
Just got my cb650r today. Took me some time to adjust to the slightly higher centre of gravity compared to my Tracer. Police were everywhere (sunny day). But no desire to go too fast anyway. Love it. It has enough torque down low to get through city bits without a problem and enough power to give me a Cheshire Cat smile on open roads. I would have bought an MT09 if not for prohibitive insurance cost. But, apart from the initial torque rush, the 650 is just as much fun and is more forgiving of shoddy riding. Love it. The quickshifter is superbo and is a necessary part of the pleasure of riding the bike. Tail tidy and a softer setting on the rear suspension next.
I currently own an MT09 which I've had for about 2 years now. I looked at the previous version of this bike before buying the MT09 but somehow I keep coming to view this new 650R, i just love the look of it 😍
I have the naked version, and prefer it actually, but I must say that aesthetically, of course the sport version looks cooler. I guess the trade-off is, is that the naked version can be customized to be a lot more comfortable + adding saddlebags etc. While the sport version looks better with the wind screen + is maybe aerodynamically better overall. Either way, can't go wrong picking one over the other, you'll get the typical Honda quality experience.
I agree about the size-issue. This bike have all the power one need. And I agree about the fun-factor too, for those newbeginners and experienced riders. I've been riding for 36 years and I bought one CB650R. And one A2 for my son. :-) Traded my BMW and a bag of money.
Hey bro is this a first good bike purchase? I’m planning on buying one for college or what do you recommend bc I’m new to this stuff lmao and I’m 18 btw ( I was also thinking about a Kawasaki ninja but idk which is better)
Sat on one today.. absolutely stunning motorcycle. It has all the looks of a supersport with way more comfort. Sick bike. I'll wait till the price comes down.
Fantastic review mate 😁 this is just compounding my decision to get this next year. I really loved it when I tried it and looks sick 😉 hate the tyres though 😏
It's a beautiful bike. I have 2012 CBR 600F. I wish I could ride the 650R just to feel how it is, maybe someday, but I don't think about buying one because I like my bike.
Mines the 2011 cbr600f & i love it, does everything i need it to, had it 5years & it never misses a beat. But like you i'd love to try this bike & feel the difference.
Late to the party here. I love the quick part where you see “SLOW” painted on the road and the speedometer blanked out! Reminds me of “Top Gear” where Clarkson is absolutely flying and they cut to the dash reading “35 mph.”
ive got about two more checks to go to get this bike and ive never been more excited for something. sitting on this thing feels like coming home to a christmas tree and drinking hot cocoa in front of the fireplace. i think
I really appreciate the comments about body comfort such as weight on the wrist and also whether you get pains in the back. That to me could be a deal breaker. In the 90's I had a FZR600 and I could still feel the pain in my wrist and back, even thinking about it. brilliant review though
@@StellarMotive-j8k no brother. but as an accessory u can add it separately.. & indian version of 650r got only 85bhp.. its lower than international verison.
Currently doing my DAS and was pretty set on a CB650r then i went into the Honda garage the other day and saw the CBR650r. I never thought id entertain a fully faired sportbike but man that thing looks incredible.
I was the same, always avoided faired bikes. Went from CBF125 to CB500F, then was set on upgrading to the CB650Fs, but saw and sat on a CBR650F at the dealers and had to get that instead. Put 34k miles on it and it's been a blast, but someone drove into it recently, think it's gonna be a write-off :(... But once the claim settles I'm fully set on upgrading to the new model 650Rs. The CB is gorgeous mind, but I'm converted, sports bikes are just way nicer in the corners IMO, and easier to filter on, and no wind blast at speeds. Can't wait to get back on a bike man.
I personally prefer naked/cafe/bobber bikes, I'm the proud owner of a yamaha XSR700. Not usually a fan of sport fairings... However, that is a very attractive bike!
I have this model bike, In the same colour to. Was made in 2020. It is a fantastic motorcycle. Handles so well & corners really good. My favourite rev range is 7,000. Best of all I never had to change the exhaust out of the box as it sounds fantastic & I not plan to change it as I not want to go deaf while riding. I will be getting the oem quickshifter & heated grips installed. I might also see about the rear seat bag in future.
My CBR650R arrived two weeks ago, going off your CB650R review before this you were absolutely spot on. She's a beast. Nice one Dan! (She'd be even better if you happen to give away an akra! 🙃)
@@Englishbikerdan haha, I get it, they're pretty pricey!, Everyone I meet seems to think it's a new blade or a 1000 until they spot the 650 sticker, only thing I'd say is they should put a tail tidy as standard as the original looks a bit mental.
@@shell6723 Yeah not cheap but it sounds good. Although...... not sure it would look right on the CBR. I would prefer a standard side mounted exhaust on a sportsbike. It does look just like the 'Blade!
@@Englishbikerdan for sure, the standard suits it more than an akra or widow does, problem is whenever you upload with your 'forest ride past' intro it tempts me hugely to get one of them fitted 😬, Honda's nailed it this time i think.
Awesome video! Love the quality! However, I do have one question for you. How tall are you? I've been looking at the CBR650R for a while now and I am curious if I will be able to fit on this bike if I am 5'8"?
Great review! I'm definitely looking at picking one of these up. Love the matte black color. You are the first review I've read/seen that said anything at all good about the tires though. So far everyone else hates the tires.
Yeah, in the dry they were great. No confidence issues. In fact, I felt more confident than on my Metzeler Roatec that are on my CB650R. I think Dunlop have made some very bad OEM tyres over the years so people tend to hate on them.
Use the same tyres as the ninja 650, okay in the dry and warm, any low temp < 10c which lets face it in the UK, is alot of the year and damp conditions, again, I the UK is alot, they're terrible, I changed mine after 1000 miles, looking to change bikes to the CBR650R , but them tyres putting me off.
You should never buy a bike on looks alone, but I did 😍 It's like you're reviewing my bike😀. I did get rid of that hideous tow hook at the back, slapped some crash bungs on it along with the sports pack, and your right, the quickshifter is lovely. Thanks Dan, I actually chose the black version because of this review (which I've watched at least a dozen times lol). Just love the stealthy look of it. Sometimes when it's sat in the garage I just stare at it, and think how lucky I am. A message to anyone buying this bike: Get a screen protector as the plastic scratches really, really easily.
I had a hard time deciding between this or the CB650R. Ended up getting the CB650R for slightly more comfortable ergos. The CBR does look very nice though. My QS should arrive soon too.
I want it I want it I want it I want it The sad part is that I got the money but the area m going to college snows all the time so not worth getting a bike as a daily driver. :'(
Honestly normally I shy away from video reviews that are “long” aka more than 10-12min but you just make them so nice and easy to watch @EnglishBikerDan thank you! And you’re clearly a man of good taste owning a CB650R 😏 (can you guess what bike I own? Haha)
Thanks Pierre, yes, most people get bored long before 20 mins but it's diffucult to get everything in that I want to say in 10mins. Thanks for watching, you have great taste too! :D
"Do you really need more than 650cc on the road...?" LOL no. In fact I don't need more than the 300cc I've got now...but I WANT it! Thanks for sharing. I wish it was as easy to do test runs on bikes here in Ontario Canada. :) Nice review.
My ride is a Harley-Davidson Breakout 17, although to ride daily I needed something more nimble and lighter for my town, so I bought a month ago the new CBR 650R in black, so far I am very very happy with the bike, its my first sport bike, basically I had to "learn" how to ride again since the riding position is so different from my HD and of course much lighter. Just the consumption I dont know how they came up with the 4.7L because the minimum I can do so far is 5,6 L but I don't care hahaha bike is just very fun, enough power for me and overall I think its the best in its segment. I checked other 600cc and Honda seemed to be the best choice/price for what I wanted. I fell in love for the looks of the bike, very agressive, the stock exhaust sound is not great, but not bad at all, for a stock. My HD came up with an stock exhaust that seemed like a popcorn machine hahaha, I didnt rest until I changed it to Vance & Hynes. Anyway keep the good job! Cheers from Portugal! ;)

I own a CBR500R, It does need more power when you're on the highway going 120km/h, i may upgrade to a 650R...
A cbr 250rr would even caught up to a 500 😂 its only 7hp gap in power but 250 weight 40+lbs less
Red and black is my favorite color combo ever so I'm like drooling over this bike.

All new bikes come like that
EU regulation is the reg plate must the the furthest point of the bike, that's why all bikes come like that lol.

Some one finally said it panigalesque. Great vid.
Thanks, yeah I thought that instantly when I saw it. Although not sure if Ducati are making their bikes more Japanese or the other way around!
The front reminds me of the Supersport S
Well, the new Fireblade was designed by Italians. This is heavily influenced by the 'Blade so, not such a silly comparison.
This design came from DN01
I read somewhere ducati copied honda in 80s. I think in a YT channel called YammieNoob.

@10:29 I was just there today on my practicals and recognised from this video. Lovely roads around those parts.
look like bigger cbr250rr
Look like a fireblade bro
Imo,CBR 250RR looks better
What a machine. Stunning.
Great review. Im never gonna buy a demo bike😂
Why not if priced right. Unless they priced it as brandnew.
You should never buy a bike on looks alone, but I did 😍 It's like you're reviewing my bike😀. I did get rid of that hideous tow hook at the back, slapped some crash bungs on it along with the sports pack, and your right, the quickshifter is lovely.
Thanks Dan, I actually chose the black version because of this review (which I've watched at least a dozen times lol). Just love the stealthy look of it. Sometimes when it's sat in the garage I just stare at it, and think how lucky I am.
A message to anyone buying this bike: Get a screen protector as the plastic scratches really, really easily.
She's a beauty, I generally lean more towards naked bikes but I was so tempted to get the CBR!
the cbr 650r is so sexy
Love this matte black, now only got the shiny black,
Wonderfull 650R. I love those bikes
I had a hard time deciding between this or the CB650R. Ended up getting the CB650R for slightly more comfortable ergos. The CBR does look very nice though. My QS should arrive soon too.
Hope for Japanese bikes to get wild, crazy, and experimental like they used to be in the way back days.
Try an MT10. Mad!!
EnglishBikerDan I bought a stupid street triple instead.
You don't like it? I've been meaning to try one for ages.
EnglishBikerDan - I do like it, but I wish i got something else
Man I want a Triple so bad. I can't afford one any day soon though but one day my guy, that's the dream. 😁
They should of made the 600 look like that too. Got a 636 instead because the front end on them is too ridiculous
I love my 19' 636. So much fun. I want a 650r too now
@@vtecninja6363 I got the 19 as well its a lot of fun
I want it I want it I want it I want it
The sad part is that I got the money but the area m going to college snows all the time so not worth getting a bike as a daily driver. :'(
Where r u from?
Honestly normally I shy away from video reviews that are “long” aka more than 10-12min but you just make them so nice and easy to watch @EnglishBikerDan thank you!
And you’re clearly a man of good taste owning a CB650R 😏 (can you guess what bike I own? Haha)
Thanks Pierre, yes, most people get bored long before 20 mins but it's diffucult to get everything in that I want to say in 10mins. Thanks for watching, you have great taste too! :D
ghaaaaaaad it's so beautiful!
that was a really nice stretch of road. I love twisty roads that are tunneled through the tree canopy
This is one hell of a sexy bike 🤘
That intro drive by❤
someone might've asked , but what is your mic set up?
Sena 20S boom mic in a Shark lid with GoPro 7.
thanks! 😍
Thinking of buying it as my first bike in like 2-3 weeks
I was looking at the ninja 650 for my first but now I'm low-key falling for this one goodluck w your journey
@@senpaihabit6232 yeah I'm happy I chose this bike, absolute beast
Blurred your speed limit eh 😜
In quick shifter, no need to use of clutch.....!! That's cool....👍
"Do you really need more than 650cc on the road...?"
LOL no. In fact I don't need more than the 300cc I've got now...but I WANT it!
Thanks for sharing. I wish it was as easy to do test runs on bikes here in Ontario Canada. :)
Nice review.
Haha true. I'm currently eyeing up a 1000cc naked! 😂
My ride is a Harley-Davidson Breakout 17, although to ride daily I needed something more nimble and lighter for my town, so I bought a month ago the new CBR 650R in black, so far I am very very happy with the bike, its my first sport bike, basically I had to "learn" how to ride again since the riding position is so different from my HD and of course much lighter. Just the consumption I dont know how they came up with the 4.7L because the minimum I can do so far is 5,6 L but I don't care hahaha bike is just very fun, enough power for me and overall I think its the best in its segment. I checked other 600cc and Honda seemed to be the best choice/price for what I wanted. I fell in love for the looks of the bike, very agressive, the stock exhaust sound is not great, but not bad at all, for a stock. My HD came up with an stock exhaust that seemed like a popcorn machine hahaha, I didnt rest until I changed it to Vance & Hynes. Anyway keep the good job! Cheers from Portugal! ;)
Hey Ricardo. thanks for your comments. That's an interesting bike collection you have! Glad you are enjoying your bikes and the videos. Thanks! EBD
I hate it when people sugar coat bike reviews
Explain? I always give my opinion. If you disagree with it that's up to you.
