CBR650R 2025 fantastic.
till 1st service mileage is 19 to 20 kmpl. Smooth revs are good and its sweet sound of inline 4 cylinder. quickswifter is only avaliable for upshift. clutch is non adjustable and front break is adjustable. Honda needs to build service network more for super bikes and needs launch more super bikes like Kawasaki.

Do all it machine
Do all machine. I use it for daily commute and weekend rides. Just change the tyres and it just rides like a supersport. No heating issues and service cost is very cheap for a superbike. Breaks are good but not great. Traction control is worst, it cuts power completely. It can catch you off guard. Overall I will recommend this for people new to superbikes, as it's forgiving and has power to keep you entertained.

Overall good bike but it's
Overall good bike but it's more sporty and little bit of less comfort. Sometimes if you are using normal basis then I don't recommend it at all It is more for fashion type not practical in day to day life.so buy according to your use not according to others or any showoff thing.please be patient and think twice and invest your money at right place

My dream bike
Nice bike this is my dream bike but I ride this bike for one day from my brother's friend . It is not a bike for me it is a emotion for me. And it cannot give me a back pain and pillion seat comfort is good compared to other 650cc bikes . Overall this bike is a monster piece and it gives good mileage in this cc

I recently bought suzuki gsx
I recently bought suzuki gsx 8r , Brakes are brilliant with 14 ltrs tank and 810 mm seat height makes it a good perfomance bike. Came along with quick shifter it's a little stiff but motor is extremely define. It's like a autombot transformer. Acceleration is intense like it unleashes itself and blue color is eye cathing.
