There are many types of bikes for different kinds of riders, and after a few minutes of research pretty much anyone will be able to tell the difference between a sportbike and an adventure bike. We know that not all motorcycles are woven from the same cloth – or forged from the same metal, if you will, but it can be quite confusing, especially for beginners, to make a decision when it comes to what bike they actually want.
For example, we often get asked about two bikes in Honda’s sportbike catalog, and why one should opt for one or the other. Of course, I’m talking about the CBR650R and CBR600RR. For the uninitiated, the CBR650R may seem like the more premium, and therefore more desirable, machine. After all, it's up by 50 cubes when compared to the CBR600RR, so surely it’s the better bike? Meanwhile, those who know a thing or two about bikes would know that the CBR600RR is in fact the more expensive, performance-oriented machine.
