  • This is my first ride and review if the brand new CBR650R with E-Clutch. This bike is like a semi automatic where the bike takes control of the clutch operation, all you need to do is change gear.

    wondering how it behaves if you pull the clutch , does it change to manual ? (Or maybe missed in a video)

    • @BikerKev
      @BikerKev  Месяц назад +2

      If you pull the clutch in while the e-clutch is activated then it over rides it and becomes a normal clutch . When you release the clutch then the e-clutch reactivates and it’s back to before. So yes you can still use the clutch while riding .

    I’m torn between this and a Ninja 1000SX.
    My dad and I go to Europe fairly regularly and the Ninja easily wins out in that regard with hard luggage included and a beastly engine.
    But the Honda is fucking gorgeous man and I really miss the 600cc inline four bikes, they’ve all but died out aside from this CBR.
    So my dilemma is do I buy a bike that I think I’ll enjoy more for fun at the weekends, or a bike that’ll perform better for the one trip I might do to Germany etc in a year?
    Unsure about the e-clutch, cool bit of tech but I might wait for a further and slightly less bulky apparatus in the side of the bike.

      This is not like a 600rr, this is not a racing replica made for the track, it has power but is heavier and made for street riding, way less power than a 600rr

    The problem with my 187cm tall body and legs. That E-Clutch is in the way of my leg. I could not sit on this bike at all without my leg touching it all the time. Will stick to my -22 650R since I can not sit on that bike on a ride. Bad ergonimics.

    Are you changing gears with your feet, or does the bike do it automatically like DCT?

      you change gears with left toe, exactly like normal tranny. Only difference is rider use of hand clutch lever is optional.

    Would you get this or a DCT version if it was available on a cbr? And if not a DCT why not?

    • @BikerKev
      @BikerKev  3 месяца назад +1

      The DCT is basically like a fully automatic so the bikes changes gear for you where as the E-Clutch only operates the clutch so you still have the manual gear change. I’ve not currently ridden a DCT so can’t really comment too much on that system. Which one I would rather have is hard to say as I’ve not had experience of both systems. Which system would you prefer ?

    • @WeldEXE
      @WeldEXE 3 месяца назад +1

      @@BikerKevDCT is not an automatic, it's the same conventional gearbox but has 2 clutches and electric motors which operates shifting via ECU. Almost same here - electric motors operates upshift and downshift, the only thing is you should still shift it so to me there's no point of semi-automatic like this. I've had VFR1200FD (DCT version) and still love it to death! Sadly it was discontinued due to Euro regulations.

    Why did Honda even make this bike? Tech-less naked? Sure. This bike needs to be ditched and Honda release a CBR750R model to compete with the R7.
    This E clutch is going keep more new riders in the Pussy/Wanker status. All this new tech crap is pure BS. Handicapped transmissions belong on Goldwings, to give the older guys a chance to relax a bit, after living their life as "real motorcycle" riders. They earned it.

      We have self driving cars now. The new generation is growing up with everything automated. You're right about us old guys though. I'm 55 and my reflexes aren't what they used to be, but I haven't been on a bike since my accident in 1990. Shifting gears and working a clutch would just be a distraction that would probably get me hurt. Im just getting back into riding, and I wish Honda would put the DCT on a smaller bike like the cb300 or rebel 300 for guys like myself.
