General Info

After riding a 2013 Kawasaki ER-6f and a 2015 Kawasaki Versys 650 GT, I wanted something different. In 2017, Honda announced the Neo Sports Cafe range and introduced for 2018 the CB125R, the CB300R and the CB1000R. I wanted a 'middle weight' and for that, I had to wait until 2019 to get my CB650R...of course, in Black.

Her name is Skyler

I have a YouTube channel were I make videos. Mostly in Spanish, but there are a few of them in English.
I plan on having a second YouTube channel, just in English. So watch out for it!

The Spanish one is called En Dos Ruedas UK (which currently has loads of videos)
and the English one is called On Two Wheels UK (which currently has NO videos).

Both have the same thumbnail picture, so it's easy to find them and know they are 'sibling' channels.

Style & Safety Mods

I've fitted a number of accessories. Some replaced OEM parts, and others add to the style and safety of the bike.
I fitted engine sliders, engine case covers, radiator guard, a small fly screen, brake and clutch levers, handlebar mirrors, an anti-glare screen cover for the digital dash and I also covered a number of areas in 3M clear vinyl to protect them from scratches as well as covering most of the fuel tank in black 3M vinyl also to protect it from scratches. I also removed the passenger foot pegs and hanger and added a small bag to carry a water bottle on the pillion seat.

Plans / Wishlist

Enjoy it as much as I can!

Hey Rafe, I'm glad you liked the videos! Those in English say so on the description. I intend to make more as soon as I start riding again after the UK winter. Thanks and ride safe!
 
I like the mirrors. Which brand is this?
I use the Triumph Speed Triple RS mirrors. :happy:

How did you place the mirrors? Was it difficult or is anything special needed? Any issues with vibrations? I've read a bit about some of those challenges. Thanks in advance! :)

Hi Mikewchandler, sorry about the late reply:
The mirrors are pretty easy to install once you remove the bar end weights and the handlebar weights. Those are a bit tricky to remove. Fitting the aftermarket mirrors is not complicated after that, requiring just an allen key to tight the allen bolt. On vibrations, I did experienced some vibrations and opted to fit internal handlebar weights, but from a Honda CB500X, as this are shorter(the original CB650R weights do not fit in combination with the new mirrors). I found the CB500X weights on eBay and are worth to fit, for they reduced the vibrations somewhat.
All in all is a fairly straight forward affair, albeit without a couple of thing to consider, like the weights.
Hope this helps! I'd say, get the mirrors, fit them, and if the vibrations don't bother you, you're done! If they do, then go on eBay and get a set of internal handlebar weights for a Honda CB500X, remove the mirrors, fit the weights and refit the mirrors and then you are done! Cheers, Ray.
