    Left and right front disc brakes are different size?

    Hi, just bought my first cb650f abs, and understood, that the front discs are warped. Now looking into the catalog and seeing that is available to buy 2 different front discs. But looking i.e to TRW catalog or other manufactures, shows only one option to buy it. Maybe someone knows if those 2...

    CBR650R Cbr650r brake pad uneven wear and retaining shims

    I checked my brake pads today and the wear on them is horribly uneven. for context there is Only 5000 miles on the bike and all pistons move freely as they should do. The front wheel however does not move anywhere near as freely as it should do. Upon checking the pads I noticed the clips/shims...

    All 650's Brake issue - too soft when cold and too hard when hot?

    Hi all, I've had a problem with my front brake for some time, although I've been forgetting to look at it until now as it wasn't too bad. A while back the brakes became softer and had to be pulled in quite far to work well. to clarify they still had sufficient braking power for city riding and...

    All 650's Front Brakes are "Singing"

    Has anyone else ever heard their front brakes sing? This is definitely not the pad warning tabs as this isn't a squeal and it doesn't happen with any regularity. I can see the pads and there's lot's still on them and the rotors look pristine. A quick google search said it may be vibration...

    All 650Rs EBC X-Series Floating Rotors Review

    The front brakes on the Honda are pretty good on the street, with no real limitations, if only lacking good feel. However, I enjoy taking my CBR650R to the track pretty regularly, and this can be hard on the stock braking system. Especially on the days when there are no run groups and it's just...

    All 650Rs Front brake technique

    Dear folks, As I was riding with an experienced buddy, he pointed out that I was breaking using just one finger. That is true I use only the middle finger while the index and thumb stay on the throttle for handling efficiency. Do you see it as a risk and a manner that I should correct...

    All 650's Front Brake Discs

    Hi All, I need to get new front Discs as they are just on \ below the wear limit, I think the pads were sticking a bit so they probably wore them down. Any recommendations on where would be best to source new discs? I assume I should change the pads at the same time? If so what do you...

    CB650R Should I change my brake fluid?

    Hello everyone! This is my first time posting on these forums but I've been scanning old threads and this seems like a really great place to find some information about my bike. I picked up a new 2019 CB650R about a month ago. This means the bike had been sitting on the showroom floor for about...

    CB650R Back brake seems pretty weak, especially compared to the front

    So my 2021 CB650R has only 50km on it so far. It's a great bike, and I dont really see much of the complaints on it that i am reading about in the forums and reviews. I find the seat firm, but comfortable. The shocks are great - back shock bounces around on rough roads tho...but i assume i...

    All 650's Did first brake flush on my 2018 Honda CB650F w/ pictures

    I bought my cb650f back in December of 2020, only done 4,000 miles on it but the bike was sitting for 3 years in showroom so brake fluid was 4 years old at this point. Decided to change it out with some MOTUL DOT 4 brake fluid. Night and day difference, see the pictures! I only took before...

    All 650's Front brake rotors make high-pitch sound and resonate

    Hi everyone, I searched the forum before writing this in the hope this would have happened to someone before me. The issue is that when braking, mostly at low speed, my front rotors make a high pitch sound and eventually very small vibrations - more like resonation - appear up to the handlebar...

    All 650Rs (Much) smaller front fluid reservoir, will it be a problem?

    Good day guys! Just curious, if I replace the front stock reservoir with a smaller one (for example Brembo 15ml), will it become a problem? Or can I still use it, but have to check the brake fluid level regularly, due to brake pad wear in the future? I saw many guys upgrade the front brake...

    CBR650F Rear brake feel

    2015 CBR650F non-abs. Just got the bike a few weeks ago. 5300 miles on it. Rear brake seems really weak and has a weird feel to it. Not sure since I'm new to the bike but it just doesn't seem right to me. 1/4 pedal does about nothing, 1/2 pedal start to get some slowing, then 3/4 pedal the pedal...
