General Info

Introducing Rosie who I’ve had since 1st March.

Moved over to this after having a Triumph Daytona 600 for 10 years, but the last two of these she has been in the garage waiting for me to fit a new stator and regulator.

The new Triumph Trident 660 actually got me interested in getting a new bike after all the reviews were glowing, but the styling just didn’t do it for me so started looking at the equivalents. Then I saw the CB650R and what won me over instantly was the headlight and the exhaust drop.

Originally planned on getting one just after Christmas but decided to hold on until 1st March to get a 21 plate and avoid the temptation to go for a blast in the cold and wet weather in Jan and Feb.

As I’ve not been on a bike properly for a few years and she is new, I’m breaking us both in slowly but so far I’m loving her. Solid build quality and everything is so smooth - its exactly what I was looking for.

Looking forward to the warmer weather, her to be properly broken in & first oil change and my confidence growing as well.

Style & Safety Mods

R&G frame sliders and fork sliders.
Aliexpress Radiator guard
Honda tank pad
Neo Sports frame sticker
Removed rear sets, replaced with black bolts

Performance / Handling Mods

Have bought the Honda Quickshifter but not fitted yet, want to get used to her first before fitting so I notice an improvement.

Plans / Wishlist

A tail tidy for the 2021 model, really like the Evotech but £110 is costly
Fit the Quickshifter

Comments

Nice looking bike, can you confirm if the front suspension is adjustable, the UK Honda web site says it is for the 2021 model, but English Biker Dan says not only on US models.
Wasn’t able to tell from our photo.
 
Nice bike👌 I really can advice you to get the Evotech performance tail tidy, yes it’s not cheap but the quality and the fit is perfect. Also the cables are hold in place with clips and makes for very clean and premium look

I agree 100%, love the new look of mine with the tail tidy kit from Evotech.

I'll be surprised these bikes in any countries come with adjustable suspension. As far as I know the only suspension upgrade in 2021 model is the Big Piston front forks.
