This CB 650R, it’s a motorcycle, you know? Honda, that’s the fella who makes it. They say it’s naked. Well, ain’t that somethin’? Like them folks runnin’ around without no clothes on. But this here’s a bike, so it just means it ain’t got all them fancy covers and what not. Makes it look kinda tough, I reckon.

Now, this here CB 650R, it’s got that engine, same as that CBR650R, I hear. That CBR, it’s all covered up, like it’s goin’ to a dance. This CB, it’s more like, ready to work, you see? Steel frame, they say. Strong, like my old man’s back in the day. ‘Luminum swingarm, fancy words for somethin’ that helps it go ’round corners, I suppose.
They talk ’bout this Honda CB650R price, well, it ain’t cheap, that’s for sure. But nothin’ good ever is, is it? There’s that Triumph Trident too, that’s also a bike, they say its price is also not cheap. But my son told me that these two bikes are like rivals, just like Widow Johnson and me at the pie contest last year. I don’t know any difference, they are all the same to me, just two wheels.
It’s got lights, bright ones, they say LED. Don’t know what that means, but they sure are bright. Shines like the moon on a clear night. And it’s got somethin’ called ABS, and a clutch, and traction control. Lord knows what all that is. Probably somethin’ to keep you from fallin’ off, I hope. Honda calls it Honda Selectable Torque Control. Sounds like a mouthful of marbles to me.
And then you got the Kawasaki Z900. Another naked one, they say. Lots of folks like ’em. This one, it’s bigger, got more oomph, they tell me. Like comparing my little garden to Farmer McGregor’s whole field. But hey, I like my garden just fine. This CB650R, it’s a good size, not too big, not too small.
- CB650R Engine, it’s strong.
- CB650R Chassis, it’s tough like a mule.
- CB650R Features, got all kinds of fancy stuff.
- Kawasaki Z650, people said it’s another good choice for you.
And then there’s another Kawasaki, the Z650. They say it’s cheaper. Well, that’s always good, ain’t it? Save a few pennies here and there. They say it’s a good ride, comfortable. Like my old rocking chair on the porch. The Honda CB650R is like that too, very nice.

There is another bike, Hornet, I don’t know much about this one. My son mentioned this to me before, he said this one is better in black. What color is better, I don’t understand these, I think my black hair looks good.
This Yamaha R7, they say it can go fast. They said it goes 24 kmpl, I don’t know what that mean. They also say this CB650R can go real fast, 240 kmph, that’s what they say. Sounds like it could outrun a scared rabbit, I reckon. And it can go from nothin’ to 100 real quick, 3.4 seconds, they say. Faster than I can say “apple butter”. I don’t know much about these numbers, but I know it’s fast. This bike has a small fuel tank, only 15.4 liters, smaller than the CBR650F. This bike has good brakes, that’s important, ain’t it? You don’t want to be goin’ that fast and not be able to stop.
They say this CB650R, it’s easy to handle. Like my old plow horse, Bess. She knew what to do, just a little nudge here and there. And it ain’t too high off the ground, neither. 31.9 inches, they say. That’s good for me, I ain’t as tall as I used to be. And it feels light, even though they say it’s 447 pounds. That’s lighter than my prize-winning pig, Petunia.
This CB650R and the CRB650R, they look different, I don’t know much about this, they are too complex for me. All these bikes, they got their good points and their bad points, I reckon. Just like people. You gotta find the one that’s right for you, that’s what matters. This CB650R, it seems like a good one. Strong, not too flashy, and it won’t break the bank. Well, maybe it will, but you know what I mean. It is a good bike, I think I like this one.
