I save up 33k now. Still a few more to go

Anyone ever tried both the cb650f and cb650r?

Any differences besides the obvious visual change?

Planning to get it with cash?

New model have chassis, forks, brakes all upgraded, and traction control.
The old platform would be very much a compromise by today's standard, a bit like Z800 ABS tbh.

If you like it, there's nothing wrong with it being a simpler and less modern bike.

I read that even the rider triangle in the R is adjusted to be more sporty than the F

The CB650R and CB650F uses raised handlebars, with the newer CB having lower then the old, so I guess this means the R is sportier.
The CBR650R and CBR650F both uses clip on. I've heard ppl switch from the clip on to handle bars, and vice versa - end up CB looks like cafe racer (with the clip ons), and CBR looks like sports tourer (with the bars)...

Maybe. If I'm lucky to spot a used bike. I might jump on it

can join FB group CB650R malaysia
got a few people want to let go their bike

Fancy seeing you here! I didn't know you ride?

Hey! Any PvP lately? hahaha.

I don't, well other than my dad's C70.

Just looking into it again, mid-life crisis you know

I've quit WoW for so long already, kinda (self denial lol) on the verge of quitting gaming entirely since very limited resources like time and money.

Maybe we can kapchai ride! I got an EX5 at Melaka and a EX90 at KL XD

Yeah I've stopped WoW too but I still like to PvP in games in general so lately I've been doing GW2 PvP hahaha.

Ah, I've got no bike at all atm! And yeah so far this CB650r is what attracts me the most.

But I'm a very short dude

go for it bro!

got a will got a way, height is no obstacle

Just No Honda Boon Siew.

I really not sure is boon siew or honda problem...


craftmanship, and spare parts like order from mars.

Nope.

Digital meter once rain, water go inside............


replace/warranty process is really disgusting..

cb650r meter ? water go in

Wow this is 1st time i heard CB650R meter faulty and water rain goes inside

Not sure la, but I think major brands hard to get parts, like take between 3 to 8 weeks to arrive at your doorstep. That's before you figure out where to get from, either local agents, or Singapore, or Thailand etc. I'm speaking from experiences for myself and friends, brands in no particular order Yamaha, Kawa, Triumph, BMW, Honda... mang kena punya.
