This has to be one of the best looking middle weights on the market today, and the sound is pretty great too, Ive been looking around the market but just keep coming back to this bike.
@@ericsalvador Unfortunately not, work came up that has me going abroad. With that and winter being here I'm not going to be able to ride until next mid-summer.
Just adding my 2 cents on the clutchless shifting. It’s the only way I shift these days, and you can do it with pretty much any old bike. If it doesn’t shift, you probably aren’t shutting the throttle quick enough to shift. What you could do is imagine the action of a quick shifter. All a quick shifter does is detects the gear lever movement and essentially shuts the throttle for you, and it does that quick to successfully work. Hope that helps 😊
For my cb125r 2018 this works both on the upshift and downshift (it is a little odd on the downshift because you have to rev it a little and then let of the throttle to make it work) but everyone I’ve talked to says that it is not such a great idea for the gearbox health
@@TheSlenderman99what it can happen to the gearbox? I thought that was the right way to downshift! Im a new rider on a cb160f, and I still trying to downshift properly
For those who want to try to change gear without the clutch, my advice is to place your foot LIGHTLY on the gear lever until you feel that it doesn't move anymore, at which point you leave the throttle, the gear will enter by itself and give some throttle to ensure the gear fully engaged. For the first few times, I recommend keeping your foot very lightly on the gear lever, and then slowly increasing until you actually manage to change gear. This method works both for upshifting and downshifting (when downshifting it's a bit more complex, you have to give a little throttle first, put your foot on the gear lever and then let go of the throttle), but I don't recommend doing it when downshifting, also when you upshift it's best to do it when accelerating at high revs.
and you need to get back on throtle when upshifting pretty much striaght away to take load way from the engine braking i would assume at least thats what i found to work i could be wrong
That clutchless upshifting was painful. The best way is, under heavy acceleration at higher RPM's, have your foot under the gear lever and apply a little pressure upwards as if you were upshifting, then just momentarily let off the gas (like you would do when shifting with a clutch) and it'll slip right in
Passed my CBT today and at the end they let me ride this bike just doing short laps of the course - was super easy to ride at low speed doing the manoeuvrers but what an incredible machine. Love it so much!
the shifting part of the video I can give a bit of explanation, Its commonly known as "Bump Shifting" Doesn't hurt the gearbox unless you do it wrong by not applying enough pressure in the upshift its exactly like in a Race cars sequential gearbox your just slamming it into gear as the gears in the box mesh its not ideal but its fairly safe to do so you will wear your transmission out a little faster from doing so
Smooth clutchless shifts are all about changing gear the moment the chain slackens. While accelerating, apply a little upward pressure to the gearshift, preloading it, then when you momentarily back off the throttle-slackening the chain, the transmission should shift up smoothly-with a little practice. To downshift, while decelerating apply a little downward pressure to the top of the gearshift and blip the throttle. The transmission should change down smoothly, with a little practice.
Ahhh , the sound . And your funny commentary . 😂😂makes this a great POV . I'm rejuvenated with my love for bikes this month , Somehow I lost it 4 years back and sold my bike. It was a Yamaha R3. And now I've been watching ride POVs , drove a royal enfield Interceptor this week due to a situation . And my love is back ! This CB650R looks damn sick !!!!
I like the headlight tbh. The whole bike looks pretty sick! Fun ride. Would love to see some urban exploration with friends and funny moments! Perhaps Groms?😂😂
My wife has the '23 CB650R and she loves it, great bike! I got the Rebel 1100 for more of a cruiser/naked hybrid and I love it. As a side note; it's really weird looking at the scenery here, being from the UK, the gray skies, industrial park, roads and signage look very similar to what I grew up with, but then you have palm trees!
Which would be a better option between them for maintaining higher speed (75mph) for no more than an hour semi regularly? I would assume the Rebel but is the 650 not too bad? I live in the Portland area and if I’m planning to take it to the beach or the mountain it’s at least an hour either way. They both seem great for mountain driving, but I’m not sure which is better. I suppose I should mention that I’m 6’2” and 200lbs.
@@jacobbaumgardner3406I would say that both are more than capable, it’s just a different experience. The rebel will be more torquey at all ranges available and more of a ‘cruiser-esque’ experience. But the rebel handles more in the vein of a naked bike than your traditional cruiser. The CB (in my opinion) has more top end acceleration and is a slightly ‘sportier’ experience. Make no mistake though, you’ll take a battering from the wind on both at those speeds, there’s nothing in the way of wind deflection 😂
I bought this in UK, comes as 'Limited edition' came with a quick shifter, belly pan, and the seat cowl with a small metal plack that states 70/160. bike is amazing for a first larger bike!!
I bought one too. Love all the black features. The rear seat cowl realy makes it sporty. Shame about the paint though. A small amount has come off the fuel tank, its only 8 months old.
Been nothing but shit weather all week, really miss riding mine. Its a shame to see australia choking your bikes like that, this thing goes pretty hard for a 650
You changed my mind bro, I think I will get this rather than the MT07 but I still wanna test ride both before making the purchase. This will be my second bike coming from a Lexmoto Adrenaline 125 years ago.
The only real con on these is the lack of a balance shaft. Sit on an R6 or Fazer 600 after riding this, start the engine, and see if you can tell the difference. Not a big deal on a short ride, but after 6 hours you just want it to stop 😂
Why no more vids pf this bike??? Really rewatched this too many times, the pov ride video is not as good as the sound is picking up a pitch, this is a great vid!
Excellent vdo! Wonderful. Just what I wanted to see in terms of performance and handling. Your comments and feedback are a great guide. And what can I say about the sound...Wow! Thank you!
What camera and mic setup do you use? These videos look amazing and there's no wind noise on the mic despite being able to hear the bike. Awesome stuff.
hi mate, what about 1,65meters guys/woman, I'm kinda short, what you think is it fine for short ppl too? my dad always had Honda unfortunatly is not with us anymore so I wish to take an honda like he did at hes time

I LOVE the headlight. I hate the insect looking front ends on most sport bikes.
That’s hilarious! I had the same thought but couldn’t verbalize it, 😂
yeah i think it looks sick af, those halogen looking like headlights on hornet and wierd ass bubble on a yamaha MT are so bad
Sports bikes look like insects, and majority of nakeds look like something straight out of transformers
literally my favorite bike for that reason
“Honda is pretty reliable” - Biggest understatement ever. Hondas are very hard to break 😎🏍
Nice! You can't go wrong with a Honda. I have my 2007 Hornet for the last 8 years. Never had an issue. Just regular maintenance and that's it.
The headlight is one of the best looking parts of the bike

@@marioalves7610 Yap, you are right
so it's sort of like driving a truck? You have to get it in the right rpm range and it will just shift on its own without using the clutch?

Couldn’t agree more, still great bike though!!

If you want a quick shifter, get a quick shifter. "Clutchless" is one of the best ways to bend a shift fork.

Righhhht, good to know thanks for explaining further!!
I got mine about three months ago and it’s a pleasure to ride. You probably can’t beat the Honda.
Got one, and i love the look of the headlights, its a cafe racer
Nice to see you speeding on your mates bike, glad you didn’t get into trouble.
He’d be livid.
I absolutely love my 23 Cb1000r! My favorite bike I have owned, she’s a torque monster!

Only ~83 hp on the 2023 version

It's a cable throttle. Your wrist is directly attached to the throttle shaft, so the responce is instant. Always.

Great video. Nice bike. Wondering how you reduce wind noise so well. Setting up for new motovlog and I’ve tried so many setups. Any advice?
Must be a good friend to let you rag the shit out of his new bike. 🙇🏼♂️
You don’t have to let off the throttle to upshift.. should be wide open and shift up confidently

What do you think, what will be the ideal height for this bike? i am 5.9 feet tall and will it be small bike for my height?

Is your front wheel leaving the ground, or are you leaning forward during the shifts? I’ve never had a bike this big, but I’m curious about it.
leaning forwards to negate the super intense drag factor when accelarating quickly
I’m so frustrated and jealous that we can’t get this black look in the US.

How tall are you? I was told by 2 friends (both around 185cm) that the bike feels a little too small.
I got 11k cash sitting on the computer desk but no damn dealers have them in stock.
Do you think it fits for a 6'1ft tall male?
What do you have to do to de-restrict them
Can you show me how he had his qaudlock mounted? I'm having a really hard time to get mine in the perfect spot on my cb650r
