2019 / 2020 Honda CBR650R Review

Review of Honda's CBR650R, the motorcycle which replaced the CBR650F towards the start of 2019. Following the almost complete demise of the full-on 600cc race-replica class - killed by a combination of tougher emissions laws and falling sales - how will this machine attempt to fill that void while remaining competitive in terms of both price and performance?

Check out my video review below, together with pictures and useful information on this middle weight sports-tourer. Full specifications can be found at the end.
