Triumph Bonneville T100 vs Honda CB 650 R Comparison

The 2021 Triumph Bonneville T100 is the entry model in the Bonneville family. The T100 gets authentic old-school design, which is the hallmark for Triumph’s modern classic range. The T100 features a high torque, 900cc twin-cylinder Bonneville engine, which receives significant updates for 2021, resulting in a lighter and more responsive powertrain. The 900 cc parallel-twin motor makes 64 bhp at 7,400 rpm and the peak torque output is rated at 80 Nm coming in at 3,750 rpm. 

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.
