Honda CB650R

The Honda CB650R is a premium middleweight neo‑sports cafe naked bike, priced around ₹9.2–9.6 lakh (ex‑showroom India), aimed at riders who want refined performance with everyday usability. It immediately stands out for its smooth 649 cc inline‑four engine with strong top‑end power and torquey character, while also offering a 5‑inch TFT display with Bluetooth smartphone connectivity and Showa SFF‑BP USD front forks that enhance both tech and handling appeal. The overall package feels balanced and modern yet characterful, blending sporty performance with commuter friendliness. That said, the absence of advanced riding modes and USB charging remains noticeable at this price point. Overall, the CB650R makes the most sense for riders seeking a stylish, fun‑to‑ride 650 cc with reliable Honda build quality.
