Hi I'm Graeme. I have worked in the motorcycle industry since 1989 working as motorcycle sales man. This is mega if your into motorcycles like I am. Best job ever you get to play on some of the lastest bikes from the franchise we have. I should by now be able to tell a good one from a bad one and trust me over the year there have been some stinkers. I thought with this access i should start doing some content for RUclips so here it is. Hope you like what we do. Keep watching, following and subscribing.
Honda CBR600RR
It's back and better than ever. I have not had this much fun on bike in ages. A hoot to ride.

Group Test!! CB750 Hornet CB650R and Trident
Really enjoyed that, loved that induction howl section. Nice one GBT!
Superb video Awesome bike Thank you 👍
Looks and sounds great. 👍
@@malcolm3370 it is MEGA.
Strange but on my bikes in the past the power modes were all on one control.... called the throttle!
@@mikadavies660 yes old school.
Looking to get back on 2 wheels soon after a long time away. I was in a dealer's showroom today mooching around some 400 Burgmans and another customer passing by commented "If you're looking at those you should consider the ADV350". He has one himself and loves it. Hmmm ... Decisions decisions!
@@richardstewart6900 the Burgmans old hat now. The Honda’s are fresh ideas so feel much more modern.
Fantastic comparison!
Does it connect to a car play screen
@@shropshirecycle no it just brings up the small square in the bottom right corner.
Does anyone know if its the same for android?
Only issue, doesn’t come in navy blue anymore 😢
They're all great all round comfortable, practical middle weight bikes. Id be happy with any one of them.
@@garysouthwell5762 totally agree.
How much sir😊
@@abdulkadircelik7624 these are £3999 on the road.
Great video marra, I nearly bought the pre e-clutch model but Triumph were offering the Trident 660 at 4.1% apr so thought I'd go for it. I'm not disappointed as the 660 is a great triple but I sometimes wonder if I'd have liked this new CB650r better. To make up for it my next bike (next year now) may well be the Honda CB1000R, I just cant understand why this bike is not more popular. Living down in Hertfordshire now with some amazing B roads for bikers. Cheers.
Loved this bike on the demo day and still want one. Hopefully I can do a deal once they are in stock 🤞
Love me DCT but that’s so good. 60 plus with you riding it? Howay Graeme… I’m impressed😀
@@keithallan8200 what do you mean? It’s not my bike it belongs to Honda UK. I respect other people’s bikes unlike the bike press.
@@Geordiebiketester yeah right😆
cb650reクラッチ!乗れていいですね💦まだ日本では購入できません😭
Great video, I collect mine this week. Mine's in gray - I've added it to my small stable compising of a Honda Rebel 1100, also in gray and my Honda Monkey Bike 125 in yellow...
@@Wheeliecooper monkey bikes rock love them.
Bee Hive!
@@julesbaird yep well spotted.
All the 'official' previous tests drove me up the wall! You Sir, beat them all, showing us the fine details of movement and noise, all I ever wanted! Does it beat DCT?
@@drdoolittle5724 no DCT is different. E-clutch is best of both worlds. If you need a clutch do a turn or small manoeuvre then you have it there. The DCT is smooth but you have to practice more to get those tight turns sorted.
@@Geordiebiketester I thought DCT was a failure to start but then learnt excessive use of the back brake resulted in better control than any bike I've ever had!
@@drdoolittle5724 yep that’s it practice using the DCT correctly and it’s mega. The E-clutch needs no practice jump on and go like you always have done.
@@Geordiebiketester Trouble is, Honda like the hybrid Kawasaki, have put out sport bikes when masses of guys would prefer a tourer!
@@drdoolittle5724 maybe we have a lot of back orders for CBR600RR and the CBR650R higher than normal this year.
I own a 2023 cb500x that I bought New,I’m a big lad at 115kg and the rear shock is awful. I ride solo so no pillions here and normal speeds on B/ roads is like sitting on a pogo stick,I’ve got the preload in the firmest position but it hasn’t improved things that much. I love the bike to bits & as you said in your video it’s a do it all machine that’s very cheap to run,I’m going to change the rear shock for a better quality fully adjustable unit that I can have built to my rider weight. I’m hoping this will rein in the out of control bouncy shock with some rebound adjustments. It won’t be a cheap fix but it is spoiling a sweet riding machine that I intend to keep. I noticed Codger Biker has the same issues as me & swapped out the rear shock for a YSS unit- problem solved.
Excellent informational review of all three bikes in a limited amount of time! Loved the profile shot & seating position of all three models, (definite thumbs up)!👍🏻Appreciated your personal thoughts while riding each scooter, (everybody’s different), nevertheless your ideas give food for thought?! Best, Rola (Oregon / USA)
@@rolacook222 thanks for those great comments.
That dude in the car had a sudden bout of penile shrinkage pain from the look of it!! 🤣😂
Not a cbr650r just cb650r. Cbr is the faired sport version.
Having owned several SH 300's over the past 18 years, I would normally go straight for the SH350 but the low down lights dont seem to make you visible in city traffic - personally, I'd have preferred the headlight to have remained in the old higher position. Still can't decide on the Forza 350, though.
Enjoyed the video very informative just recently got back into riding dilemma ? bike or maxi scooter.
I love bikes but big scooters are mega. The Forza or the ADV have huge storage space which is mega useful. If money was no problem I would go X-ADV best of both worlds I love them just don’t have enough cash or space to get one.
I am happy owner of cb500x. Really great value for money bike.
Does this system work on the I phones???
I'm using a iPhone for this set up.It has more features if you use android phone.
Navi works with black screen?
Yeah the screen changes colour for night use.
Excellent video, a test that was much needed !!
Thanks
Sounds horrible. Like a sewing machine.
The sound of that engine is so much like the old CL-350 I rode 50 years ago it’s uncanny, the 500 is a little throatier, but still it took me back to earlier, better days. Great vid! Ride safe.
Thanks we do try to do good content.
Чадит, как паровоз. Что это с ним?
smoking
CB650R all day everyday
I did my mod 1 on the 750 and mod 2 on the 650.. I found low speeds stuff was so much smoother on the 650.. I found the 750 very juddery low down.. it's not for me..
Ou Honda trás logo está adv Pará ou Brazil vai vender muito muito não tenho dúvida
Thankyou! Very helpful! Is there any way to get the initial screen to go away without having to press ok. It is so anoying
Changes colour with heat in about 200 miles?🤷♂️
Yep happens when they get mad hot.
Same Here,in the Netherlands,just bought the black one ,new, with acrapovic
Seriously the Forza and ADV fitting a proper helmet under the seat is just a massive practicality bump over the SH. I have an ADV350 and I can rock up to my destination and stick my XL helmet, gloves and jacket under the seat no problem.
Yep it’s mega my Father in law carries all sorts in the space on his ADV350
Nice little bike but id go for a transalp hands down More power, torque, speed and better for 2 up cruising/touring
And that’s why we have so many bikes to choose from.
I subscribed. Enjoyed it very much, thanks. The CL400 was my first bike so I have a soft spot for the CL500. Would love to have one... although the Fantic Caballero or a Beta would suit me better. Currently own a KTM Freeride 2 stroke 250. Love it! Ciao for now. I am living in Morocco because I can ride 100% of the time on tracks, off road and in crazy city traffic.
Hey mate where in London you at ..whats the ££££
I’m at Newcastle up north. Just go to a Honda it’s just a stock CB500 Hornet.
Don’t quote me but I think on newer models they now have turn by turn directions.
yep your right just put update on here.
It seems insane that they don’t fit the forza screen to the ADV ?
Literally sounds stock 👎🏻
And why is the handle bar toggle switch direction opposite of what it logically should be?
No idea just is.
What is the difference between Enable Once and Always Enable?
Always enable means when ever your phone is connected that’s it it’s done so no asking.
@@Geordiebiketester Each time I connect my headset and phone to my 2018 DCT I get that same screen asking me the same question and even though I tell it Always Enable I still get it the next time. 🤬
Great video.
Waiting for mine to come. Be soon.
Just picked up an ADV350, I've gone through the pairing process in the app and then the app says "Not Connected to a Vehicle". Is there a way to "wake up" the bike for the app to connect to it after pairing? Totally stumped as neither the app nor the bike's user manual mention anything after completing the pairing process.
Thank you.
