2017 Honda CBR650F and CB650F updated with new colour, spec – RM47,115 and RM44,995 respectively

Updated with a mid-model facelift and new specifications are the 2017 Honda CBR650F full-fairing sports bike and CB650F naked sports, at RM47,115 and RM44,995, respectively. Both bikes also get new colours for 2017 – the CBR650F with Matte Gunpowder Black, while the CB650F gets, in addition to the new black, Millennium Red and Pearl Spencer Blue.

Both the CBR650F and CB650F carry a 649 cc inline, four-cylinder, DOHC power plant that produces 89 hp at 11,000 rpm and 64 Nm maximum torque at 8,000 rpm. Power is transmitted through a six-speed gearbox, and final drive is by chain.

Peak power has increased through revisions in the intake and exhaust system, and both Honda middleweights now carry an underbelly exhaust with short muffler end can. On the suspension side of things, the pair of 650s now sport new 41 mm diameter Showa Dual Bending Valve (SDBV) front forks for improved handling, while the rear carries a monoshock adjustable for preload.

Nissin brake callipers for better braking performance are now installed on the 2017 CBR and CB 650s, clamping 320 mm diameter discs in front, with a 240 mm disc at the back.

LED headlights now adorn the front of the CBR650F and CB650F, along with and LED tail light. The overall look of the CBR with its sharply angled headlights now strongly resembles the 2017 CBR1000RR Fireblade.

Weight for the CBR650F is claimed to be 213 kg, while the naked CB650F clocks in at 208 kg. Fuel for both machines is carried in 17.3-litre fuel tanks. Seat height is set at 810 mm for both the CBR650F and CB650F.

Complete colour options for the CBR650F, aside from the earlier mentioned Matte Gunpowder Black, are Millennium Red and Pearl Metalloid White, while the CB650F also comes in Sword Silver Metallic, besides the three new colours. The 2017 Honda CBR650F and CB650F will be available at all authorised Honda Impian Shops from August 1 and prices include GST, but exclude road tax, insurance and registration.

    This motorcycle is seriously overpriced beyond the reach of many and not competitive enough with other makers within the same price range, engine capacity and safety features. such a shame to have to see this happen.

    • Boon Siew probably saw Mazda pricing strategy and thought; “Hey, why not…”

    The updated bike looks very nice (especially the faired CBR650F) despite its basic design is already several years old. If only it’s got a proper USD forks & the engine power break the 100hp mark..

    for the quoted selling price i don’t think the take up from public will be encouraging since Z650 offer much better spec like ABS,adustable brake & clutch lever, Slipper clutch etc & etc

    Prices are just insane! Honda should really really open their ears on what does the people expect. Example the CBR250RR, indon pun dah lagi bergaya than us when we are still stuck with Honda CBR250R. itupun the price is just wayy too pricy for a 250cc single cylinder. Apalahh Honda malaysia buat.. they can easily top kawa n yamaha if they bring in the 250rr i tell u. and on other models, price to biar berbaloi. then i believe Honda will gained it’s fame again in malaysia. Not only for Honda Ex5. bangga sangat dengan moped/kapchai best selling in malaysia. Not to mention itu pun u olls gi tuka design EX5. dah jadi buruk nak mampuih dah. Please Honda, listen and study on what the market in malaysia expect and hope from u. Percayalah, bawak cbr250rr je confirm ramai amik. silap2 those R25 n Ninja250 owners pun sanggup tuka to cbr250rr. haa tak ke bagus gituuuu
