2014 Honda CBR650F

Honda has been making these for the European market for a while now. They just updated the look.. Looks nice
 
IMO, Honda should ditch the CBR500R here (given it was built for Euro license regs), now that they have the CBR300R replacing the CBR250R, and bring in this CBR650F to replace it.

Here's a video I found of the new 650 too -- looks pretty good in white/black, and if the price was right (also lower insurance given not a SS), I'd probably buy this for next season over a new CBR600RRA:

I wouldn't be surprised if you start seeing them here soon. Now that Honda also has a 300 cc bike. I can see the 500r getting dropped. Kawi did this when they redesigned the 250r and introduced a new 650r. The 500r was not replaced.

Insurance was not cheaper for me when I compared the 650r to a ZX6r for example. They went by engine sizes and not power.

Look somewhere other than StateFarm. Their GTA rates aren't that great for non-SS bikes. They told me so themselves.
 
I would be surprised if the new VFR and CBR650 even come to Canada.


I don't know about the 650, but why would anyone think the new VFR would come to our tiny market, while it's not even going into U.S ??? Is there an example from before that I'm missing ?
