CBR650R Ownership Impression after 1400km - India

[@warriorforever6540]

One word for you Strell : SMOOTH. KEEP IT UP. I am no Pro rider but I must say as a lay man, you are a smooth rider. You teach a lot to the youth riders out there. Fast and smooth is the best combination according to me. Out of all the riders I have seen till date on youtube, I must say I really admire your riding style.

Honda bikes are same.. they are extremely nimble in lower RPMs but becomes a monster after crossing mid range RPMs. Typically, this is Honda's power delivery system.

I am very critical whenever buying my bikes. I’ve had a lot of sports bikes. Got a big cruiser (V-star 1300 tour deluxe) why, because all my riding friends had big cruisers. For the last 6 yrs I’ve never lost the desire for sport bikes. I sold the V-star this winter without telling them because I knew they would deter my choice. With all the sporties out there and after watching your vid, the CBR650r is going to be the best choice for me. 👍🏾

this guy makes such long videos n surprisingly i want him to keep talking n i feel left out when the video ends🥺🥺 can’t vocalize my appreciation for you dude, i search your vids n listen to them when i eat n roam around, even though the bikes in the vid is completely irrelevant to me😂😂 i searched duke 390 in your channel but you have a bs4 one… watched it but i wished you made a refreshed one too… i’m gonna buy that soon (booked already) wish me luck

[@RakeshBeheraChandra]

Great Review. What I love is that it talks about real aspects as opposed to dry facts which give you no sense of using the bike itself in the real world. I have booked this and have a painful waiting period before I can get my hands on this. As you might know, there is no test ride bike in Bangalore (at least there wasn't the last time I visited Silicon Honda). I would love for you to answer some of my questions. - How is the heat in bumper to bumper traffic? - Can you please expand a little more on the ground clearance? - While I am sold on the positives, any negatives you think might be good to know for future owners such as I? I know this is a long list of questions. This being a new bike, there is a dearth of ownership review and first ride reviews just aren't the same. Would appreciate some input when you get the time.

[@vakiza]

Most of the bikes have a torque screw to adjust the height of low/high beam. Please check in the next service. The rear shocks are adjusted to the softest setting by default. Get it checked. The bottoming issue should resolve. There are touring helmets and then there are race focused helmets. Check out which one suits you more. Also, the double bubble is very much needed for your touring purposes. Very concise and informative review. Keep driving and sharing. Wishing you happy miles ahead.

This is the perfect bike as per my choice. Looks Engine Ergonomics Seat height ... everything is fine. I actually don't worry much about the gas mileage.
