I have owned this rare classic for six years and 10 thousand glorious miles and she has only let me down once when the alternator failed which took ten minutes to replace beneath the easily accessible side cover. | ||||||

Riding the CB650 is a dream and it will easily keep up with modern traffic and has a top speed of around 105mph, but that´s not what riding a classic Honda is all about: it´s about going back in time and riding something that you could only dream about in your youth when money was tight and a moped was all you could afford. The twin front discs and drum rear brake perform well and the smooth engine will pull in top gear from as little as 25mph. And stamped on the crankcase is the legend MADE IN JAPAN. |
