Honda CBR 650F - Specs & Price In India
Honda Motorcycles India has announced that they'll bring the much awaited Honda CBR 650F in India in 2016. The production of the bike is expected to being next year; but actual delivery may take a few more months. That's too long a wait, but I hope it will be worth it. The price of Honda CBR 650F in India is expected to be around Rs. 7 - 7.5L. Let's have a quick look at the technical specs of the bike.
The CBR650F will be completely assembled in India at an upcoming factory in Ahmadabad, Gujarat; and it will be Honda's 4th factory in India. The Japanese motorcycling giant was expected to announce the CBR500R; but has surprised everyone by announcing the bigger brother instead. Apart from its beastly looks, there's some awesome engineering that goes on the chassis. The 650cc bike will boast a 4 cylinder DOHC (aka Double Overhead Camshaft) engine capable of producing 87 bhp at about 11k rpm; with the peak torque of about 6.4kgm at about 8k rpm. As you'd expect in any superbike; the machine will have a 6-speed gearbox.
Honda's engineers promise that they've fine-tuned the fuel injection for overall better performance at various engine revs. The bike will also have Anti-lock braking system aka ABS.
If Honda gets the pricing right, expect a lot of interest from the Indian biking and automobile enthusiasts. The CBR 650F will fight head on with the already established Kawasaki Ninja 650.
