Pros Cons of Honda CB 650 R

Pros

  • Solid performance
  • Focussed motorcycle
  • Good features

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Only available in BigWing dealerships
  • Stiff ride

Verdict

The Honda CB650R has a superb inline four-cylinder engine which is tractable and will hold low speeds in a high gear. At higher revs there's enough performance to keep you entertained, although the lack of features and electronics is a let down. With a steep price tag, the Honda CB650R though fails to make for a convincing case.

Pros Cons Kawasaki Ninja 1000

Pros

  • Nimble handling
  • Comfortable riding position
  • Extremely value friendly

Cons

  • Massive exhaust
  • Lacks pillion seat comfort
  • Expensive spares

Verdict

The Kawasaki Ninja 1000SX remains one of the most accessible litre-class full-faired offerings on sale and the in-line four-pot motor makes for a highly likeable highway companion. Powered by a 1,043 cc liquid-cooled, four-pot motor that develops 140 bhp at 10,000 rpm and 111 Nm of peak torque at 8,000 rpm, the bike has a lot of electronic aids including ABS, cruise control, three-level traction control, Kawasaki Cornering Management function, quickshifter and more.
