This is the new Hornet out next year, i like it but why they've called it a hornet I don't know... It's a parallel twin engine 🤔

I like the look of the new Hornet as well. Will wait until next year to decide.

Oh, and black (y)

After much consideration, one of these… ;)


(but I voted ‘black’)
I've wanted one of those since they first came out but at £12k I can't justify the price. When you look what you get on the new Honda it's fantastic VFM. With bag/ quickshifter and wheel decals it's only £7419 🤩 AND IT'S A HONDA 🤩

On the right bike, absolutely nothing wrong with a red frame. On that one, it makes it look like a Grom. Nothing wrong with a Grom, before I upset anyone else.

I have a red bike and i have a white bike so a 3rd bike would have to be a different colour like purple.

Naming it Hornet would suggest the heavier and more expensive 650 will be deleted.
The CB650R is pretty unique though with the inline 4 engine, it's the other bike I've been fancying for the last couple of years. This new twin seems to be a bit better all round..
£600 cheaper
More Torque
Riding modes
Wheelie control
And lighter.

The white looks a moped

The black looks like a motorbike!

I didn't like yellow so much as the bike isn't very Hornet-y anyway 😁

I like the white best but wondered what the collective thought 😊

Is it an up, and down, quickshifter?

Down shifters are addictive. 😎
