Pros and Cons in comparison

Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CB650R 2021

Honda CB650R 2021

13 out of a possible 24 points mean 5th place in the large mid-range naked bike comparison test 2021. The Honda puts up a good fight against the technically more advanced competition and can leave a motorbike behind despite its position as an outsider. Pleasing looks, accessible riding and the low price make the shortcomings that were brought to light in the direct comparison fade into the background.
