2018 Honda CBR650F Review | The most practical "superbike"? | ZigWheels.com

- When originally launched back in 2015, the Honda CBR 650F, on paper at least, was almost tailor made for India. A mid-capacity inline-four motor for that right ‘superbike’ engine sound. A fairing for that superbike look and a power output that is invigorating without being intimidating. And it came in at under Rs 10-lakh on-road as well. But now for 2018, Honda has brought in an updated version of the bike, but it doesn't seem to be much different than the bike it replaces.
A new LED headlight, updated colours and graphics, different coatings for the engine cases and swingarm dominate the visual changes. And some slight changes to the intake, exhaust and gear ratios round off the mechanical changes. So is the CBR650F doing enough to stay relevant in an era when competitors such as Kawasaki and Suzuki are offering more powerful 4-cylinder nakeds for not much more money? Turns out, the CBR's proposition is still rather attractive... - Авто та транспорт
![Cbr650f Ownership Review [Long Term]](/img/n.gif)
I've got a silver 2015 CBR500R here in England and I love it! My next bike will be a CBR650F. Nice to see fellow Honda enthusiasts in India. Ride safely and enjoy!
I’ve one it’s good for touring among super category .
One of the channels which deserve attest a million subscribers
Lol! That face you made while revving that in line 4 engine. 😎😎
On a serious note, this video solves dilemma for a lot of people. I've never met a person who simply LIKES this motorcycle. People either swear by it and love it, or they simply hate it and feel it is priced a bit high.
Ruchir hahaha... Our DOP said that face looked quite stupid. But I was like "it's just so stupid fun to rev" 😂
Its a motorcycle that does a lot of things right. If it was a couple of lakhs cheaper, then even I could afford it 😁
Bawaal intro!
The most informative and interesting video of the '18 CBR650F so far.
Loved it.
2:33 "Now we're not comparing... " Thats when we know you're going to compare😂😂😂
Dual headlight and a tft instrument cluster would make this an awesome package and much more desirable.
Duel head light does not give a proper spread and focus as one would expect since it is offset from centre. My experience with present R3 , and R15 compared to my CBR 250.
Presenting you 650RR
Dual headlights looks so stupid. Will never buy a bike with dual headlights.
Very few mentioned this that it is very cheap to maintain. In long run, it proves its value proposition well.
look at the smile on priyab's face when he is revving the engine.
Does it have cornering Abs?
Wow what a bike! That sound of the inline 4😍 0-100 in 4.76s!! That is fast. Really fast. Why do someone need more acceleration!!🙄
What impresses me the most is how good is the seating position in this bike. Not too commited and not too commuter like. Perfect for touring!!! While in GSX and Kawasaki you put most of your weight on your arms. This is always the better choice anyday.
It's 3.9 seconds 0.100kph not 4.7
I love this guy he's absolutely fantastic... I watched his first zw review n it's really great!
Besides those tyres,one also needs to throw off that that Barbeque Grill at the rear....oops... I mean the saree guard...
As a FZ25 rider looking for an upgrade I'll go with CBR650F anytime over its rivals under Rs10L cuz full faired bikes are ❤ and I hate windblasts, naked bikes are good for a normal day cruising at 110-130km/h but on a windy day even 80-90km/h feels stressfull
Loved it brother !!
What attracts me on this bike is Usable Power & Lower maintaenance cost
Revzz Rider thanks bro... That's the thing with this 650 na. It looks kinda boring on paper, but it's just so easy to use and run. Cheers 😊
My next bike will be CBR 650f .
The engine colour remember us about the fireblade..
I loved the review , your in-depth analysis is worth for superbikes enthusiasts.
Gautham Prabhu thank you brotha... Cheers 😊
Priyadarshan Bawikar looking for more comparison, bike review videos , looking for burgman 125cc review.
Awesome bike and super review✌
This or the GSX S750?
Could u pls recommend which to go with in terms of reliability, ease of maintenance, minimal track riding and a bit of touring. Also availability of parts.
Quality, thanks for the review
That background score is #dope
Engine case reminds of Fireblade

Great review..and i agree tht its cheap to maintain and atleast u can tour across the country without worrying too much...

HAHA TO BE FAIR, I LOVE THE CBR650F, but my country doesnt bring it in. only have the cbr 600rr and cbr 1000rr
Nice. Question - how many KMs out of that 17 litre tank?
What about the CB650R? Will we get it in our country this year?

slyderockheart saree guard 🤦🏾♂️
Yes, it's very cheap to maintain , have been using this bike from past 1 year plus. It's an every day superbike. Very linear power delivery n easy to use in city.

Great review sir. Next time review the Suzuki GSX s750 please.

Masha Allah I like it bike.

Engine casing reminds you of Honda Africa twin

Bahi isme abs model he price
The engine paint scheme looks like it's elder brother fireblade
Hari Sankar absolutely right... 🍻
Mr. Pridarshan you are usually a replacement of Kartikeya for me. But but but
After this review you are the best of zigwheels. And one of the best in India.
Smita Mohapatra thank you so much for your kind words. They really mean a lot. 😊
Priyadarshan Bawikar you to mean a lot to zigwheels
Sir plzzz make a video beginners naked bikes
Will it be value for 💰 if I buy Cbr 250
My upcoming next bike cbr 650 f or Suzuki gsx 750 (confused)
great review review .. u r so good that I don't want Karthikeya for review
arjun t s you sir, have just made my day. Heck, even my week. Thank you for the kind words. It's an honour to learn from the best in the business (a.k.a. Kartikeya). 😊
arjun t s yeah, getting tired of the 'we want Kartik everywhere' gang
Damn 🔥
Gorgeously handsome Honda. Pricey but Honda is Honda.
Cool
Greetings Zigwheels im finalizing on my purchase for 650cc.
I wanted to know ur valuable experience on Ninja 650 vs CBR650.
**In my city Chennai no test drive available for both bikes so have to decide with blind eye. My main concerns are
1) I want a long reliable easy to maintain 650cc with good mileage.
2)My usage is mostly for commuting and yearly once touring possibly.
3)CBR is 2lakh expensive than ninja, Will the service cost of ninja make the difference amount negligible.
4)My daily driver is 2018 CBR250R. Can u compare the vibrations on ninja 650 to 250.
Ur views are really important in my decision. Thanks in advance..
Bro cbr 650 f is very cheap maintainence cost than ninja 650 , kawasaki parts costs like nuclear bomb
Plz review honda cbr 650R
what about cbr600rr and gsxr-600?? don’t you get those bikes in india??
Dean Marshall nope. Not officially at least
Please review 650 r
Bro IS this BIKE is good for First Time Buyers
Awesome t-shirt 😂🤣👌👍😬. First time me watching an Indian wearing that t-shirt. Nice video too.
R those Fuel efficiency figures correct ??? Even my Duke 390 doesn't give that much in city
nitesh singh these are real. Takes into account bumper to bumper traffic, low speed riding. But not full throttle open, cutting off your fellow road users for that extra millimetre of space, aggressive riding.
I have cbr 650f . I love it
No review of 650r why ?????
super
At present, which is a better buy . Yamaha yzf R3 or Kawasaki ninja 300 ? Reliability and maintenance is my primary concern.
Arun A yamaha is cheap to maintain and both are reliable.. . yamaha has wide range service network than kawasaki... in all other aspects both bikes are neck to neck... both are good but kawasaki is cheap to buy.
What's the deal with Priyadarshan and his obsession with Rick and Morty T-Shirts🤣🤣🤣
Khullaa Saand he is a nerd
Is this video playing in 1x speed ..
Maintenance cost is the most important thing going its way. otherwise the gsx-s750 /z900 wud steal the show.
Subs must be 1 million
Awsum Bike
What about CBR 250
Wish we had that color here in the US
Gerardo Razo Jr that's surprising
Cheapest after sale service Superbike in INDIA.......2500only fir 5 year warranty my fev Bike
Sorry? What?
Are you kidding me?
@@priyeshamin379 its true.
Hws the performence after 200kmph ?
jasmeet singh kalra like he'd tell you that and risk going to jail
Kitne ki aati hai?
It can do 0.100kph in 3.9 seconds from a good launch.
Nice bike & review Handling sounds little iffy Why do u guys need number plates on front of bike? Bummer it takes a little away from looks of bike
ugh xr500a Indian law mandates front number plates
Nice bike what’s the on road price in hyd
gowri nath www.zigwheels.com/newbikes/Honda/CBR650F/on-road-price-hyderabad
VFR 650F would be a better name as it's a sports tourer
no LED indicator, sad
headlight is small not complimenting well
Now time had changed and it's time for coloured infringement panel, again not here.
If Ninja600, CBR650 and Daytona675 can launch, then why they do not launch the ZX6R, R6 CBR600RR & GSX600R ..??
Avneesh Singh Tomar cause no one will buy them, if zx6r or r6 will launch, it will launch at a price of aporox 12-15 lakhs because it is a middleweight supersport bike, most of Indians or almost all will go for ninja 1000 or Z900 because most of the Indians don't know anything about bikes except the cc of Engine,And all those bikes are track focused bike, it will be a pain in the ass and back on driving in our fucked up Indian roads and traffic, not to forgot the potholes and Indian roads are not at all for high speeds. Hope these helps
Surya Pratap Your reason is justifiable, but these companies have fixed targets like 100 biggest per year or 200 bikes per year for specific models. And if they launch and bring it via SKD Route it will eventually sell off, like Kawasaki launched Zx10r for 12.8L and thought of selling them in half a year but we (Indians) booked the whole stock in half a month and Kawasaki had to stop booking. In similar situation I can only expect Kawasaki to launch ZX6R in India with a similar strategy and under 10L coz Kawasaki is really in an aggressive phase in the market right now, they were late but are now ahead of all. This will also create a Middleweight segment in India which is completely missing.
We Indians go for CC & Money like mad, Busa is best sold because it gives over 1300 CC for 13.5L only.
If they think of selling only 50 ZX6R in India, I'm sure, many like minded people will buy a ZX6R for 10L instead of Ninja1000 for 10L or ZX10R for 13L. 👍
Avneesh Singh Tomar yeah but that will be hard for them to do if they try to maintain the quality also and I think most probably next year kawasaki will launch zx6r in India and maybe after that yamaha and Honda also follows
Surya Pratap I hope so 🤞
Coz anything in supersport beyond 600CC is literally a waste of Power and Money. Even 1000CC are tourers are worthless, first it's a tourer means one is going for long ride and lesser stops are preferable and on the other hand it's 1000CC means less Mileage and extra weight with a lot more (Useless) Power..??
With very few options available in Indian market and complicated Pryce ranges it's even more difficult.
I hope to see Middleweight Bikes in this lifetime 😂😂
Another reason being, having a Supersport launched, Company has to stock it's inventory of spares, Service centers have to be trained, and above all marketing them, are few reasons, Companies need to think over whenever they consider launching an international model whether CKD or CBU.
That dash is a deal breaker..
Nice review.
Guess you got confused with city and highway mileage. Or did I?
Dr. Prashanth Jana mileage figures are correct.
Thanks.
PICKLE RICKKKKKKKKK
Why are motorcycle reviewer in Maharashtra using test bikes with DL/HR registration numbers ???
Seen quite few of them.
Dhaval Bane Honda provides the bikes, they register these where their head office is. This DL/HR number plates
0-100 in 4.76"?? Who do you have doing those tests? I can easily do it in 3.85" - 3.90" and I weigh 165lbs.
The headlamp is from xtreme.
Gattu Bakshi Xtreme doesn't get LED headlights
I just wish that they bring cb650f in india and cb1000r.
Krishanu Singh err. You're watching a review of the CBR650F in India. The CB1000R is also sold here!
Head lamp looks like megatron's head in transformers, like it if you feel the same
