It's my daily ride, I own the Candy Red version. It has brought me nothing but joy, every single day since I got it. It's restrained aggression with this beauty. The heat management on this bike is phenomenal. Even in horrible traffic, it doesn't heat up like other 650s. The inline-four sounds like a bee nest at rest and a deep grunt post 5k RPM. Since the low-end torque isn't that high downshifts, sometimes to the first gear also may be unavoidable in city traffic. But on the highway post 4500 RPM, it's a rocket, that can give the litre-class giants a run for their money. I also have a Diavel that I have practically ignored after getting this since it does office runs as effortlessly as weekend breakfast rides. Got the extended warranty for peace of mind, not that this bike needs it, it's a Honda. Pros: Smooth, agile, nimble, BEAST MODE post 4500rpmCons : Stock Dunlops, brakes not confident.
Tips for Honda CB650R
Regular oil change, every 5-6k kms. Regular chain clean and lube. The brakes will take a while to get used to. They're not too sharp. And if you have the budget get the stock tyres changed immediately to something more grippy like pirelli.
