Honda has long been the benchmark for reliability in the motorcycle world. From daily commuters to high-performance race bikes, Big Red has built its reputation on machines that just won’t quit. Among them, the CB650R and CBR650R stand out as some of the most refined and rider-friendly middleweight bikes on the market.
These 650cc inline-four machines are beloved for their silky power delivery, comfortable ergonomics, and approachable nature. The CB650R, with its neo-retro naked styling, and the fully-faired CBR650R, which channels superbike DNA in an accessible package, offer the best of both worlds: thrilling performance and everyday usability.
But even Honda, despite its well-earned reputation for building bikes that last a lifetime, isn’t immune to the occasional recall.
