2026 Honda CBR650R E-Clutch (ABS)

2026 Honda CBR650R E-Clutch (ABS)

The 2026 Honda CBR650R E-Clutch is the sport-bike every rider wants when performance meets everyday usability. Blending a high-revving 649 cc inline-four with Honda’s innovative E-Clutch system, this machine delivers real sportbike excitement without intimidating complexity. Designed for riders who crave spirited canyon runs, twisty backroads, and engaging weekend rides, the CBR650R E-Clutch elevates the middleweight segment with thrilling power, refined chassis dynamics, and cutting-edge rider technology.

Performance-Driven Engine and E-Clutch

The heart of the CBR650R E-Clutch is a 649 cc liquid-cooled DOHC inline-four, delivering smooth, broad power that rewards both acceleration and high-rpm performance. Its six-speed transmission pairs with Honda’s E-Clutch, letting you shift without using the clutch lever while still offering the option to pull in the lever when desired. This technology functions similarly to a quick-shifter for clutchless upshifts and downshifts, making traffic, canyon carving, and track days more fluent and fun.

Balanced Chassis and Suspension

Built to handle with precision, the CBR650R E-Clutch features a 41 mm inverted Showa® SFF-BP fork and a rear monoshock with adjustable preload. Together these suspension components provide responsive steering, balanced damping, and confidence-inspiring handling whether you’re leaning into corners or cruising on open roads.

Stopping Power and Wheel Setup

Sportbike-ready brakes include dual 310 mm front discs with radial-mounted four-piston calipers and a single 240 mm rear disc, all backed by dual-channel ABS for controlled deceleration in varied conditions. The performance-oriented tire setup (120/70-17 front, 180/55-17 rear) ensures traction and responsiveness through lean angles you’ll find on aggressive street rides.

Ergonomics for Sport Riding

A seat height of about 31.9 inches places riders in a poised, athletic position that balances aggressive body language with everyday comfort. Handling geometry and wheelbase promote stability at speed without sacrificing feedback, giving riders confidence from twisties to back roads.

Sport Technology and Rider Confidence

Beyond the E-Clutch, the CBR650R includes Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) for traction modulation in variable surface conditions — adjustable and switchable based on rider preference. This electronic aid supports confidence on spirited rides and adds a layer of safety without intruding on the ride experience.

A True Sport Enthusiast Machine

The 2026 CBR650R E-Clutch balances aggressive mid-range torque with smooth top-end power, approachable ergonomics, and modern transmission technology. Its blend of rider-centric features makes it ideal for sport riders seeking performance, versatility, and cutting-edge convenience all in one bike.
