Quick Overview
Honda unveils the 2025 CBR650R, an upgraded sportbike combining performance, technology, and stunning design.
Honda has officially revealed the 2025 CBR650R, a mid-weight sportbike designed for enthusiasts seeking a perfect mix of power, comfort, and style. Here’s an in-depth look at what makes the latest CBR650R a standout in its segment:
- Engine and Performance: The 2025 CBR650R retains its 649cc inline-four engine, delivering an impressive 93.8 horsepower and 64 Nm of torque. The Euro 5-compliant engine offers a smooth power delivery, perfect for both city rides and weekend getaways.
- Design Updates: The CBR650R 2025 gets sharper bodywork and new color schemes, including Matte Gunpowder Black Metallic and Grand Prix Red. LED lighting, a full digital LCD display, and aggressive styling make it a head-turner.
Enhanced Features:
- Assist and Slipper Clutch: Ensures smoother downshifts.
- Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC): Improves traction control for better handling.
- Showa SFF-BP USD Forks: For superior ride quality and handling.
- Comfort and Ergonomics: Designed for daily rides and track days alike, the CBR650R features a sporty yet comfortable riding position. The seat is well-padded, and the handlebars are positioned to reduce fatigue on long journeys.
- Pricing and Availability: Expected to be priced around INR 9.5 lakhs (ex-showroom), the CBR650R will hit Indian showrooms by mid-2025. It competes with models like the Kawasaki Ninja 650 and Yamaha R7.
Why the CBR650R Stands Out: With its combination of performance, technology, and premium build quality, the Honda CBR650R continues to set benchmarks in the middleweight sportbike category.
