2023 Honda CBR650R ABS - Black - 20,493km - 649cc Inline Four - Akrapovic Exhaust, Digital Dash, ABS

2023 Honda CBR650R ABS, 649cc DOHC inline-four cylinder, 6-speed manual, chain drive, 20,493km, black with blue pinstripe, Thomastown VIC.



Overview

The Honda CBR650R is Honda's current generation middleweight supersport. The 649cc DOHC parallel-four delivers a strong mid-range hit and a free-revving top end that covers the gap between LAMS bikes and full-litre machines. ABS is standard, the digital dash is clean and feature-rich, and the riding position is sporty without being punishing for longer trips. This 2023 model was built by Thai Honda and carries its original VIN with matching frame stamp. The original new ride-away price for this specification was approximately $11,499-$12,499 in Australia.



This example is fitted with an Akrapovic aftermarket exhaust system, which is a genuine performance and sound upgrade with a new replacement cost of $1,200-$2,000. The bike is also fitted with a Quad Lock phone mount on the triple clamp, aftermarket Domino grips, tank grip pads, and an aftermarket fender eliminator/tail tidy. Pirelli Diablo Rosso tyres are fitted to both wheels and appear to have good remaining tread depth. The OEM Honda toolkit is present, and vendor advises books are included.



The vendor has disclosed the following known issues: damage and scratching to the engine casing, multiple bolts and screws missing, minor leaking on the forks, and a crack in the left mid-fairing plastic. All four of these are visible and confirmed in the photo set. The engine casing shows contact rash marks on both sides, consistent with a low-speed drop or tip-over. The fairing crack is approximately 5-8cm long on the left mid-section panel near the carbon-look accent trim. The fork seal service is a standard maintenance item. Missing fasteners are sourceable. None of these items are structural or mechanical failures. Buyers should factor repair or replacement costs into their bidding accordingly.



Comparable 2023 Honda CBR650R ABS examples in dealer stock in June 2025 are listed at $11,995-$13,990 excl. government charges at low kilometres. At 20,493km with the disclosed condition issues and the added value of the Akrapovic exhaust, this represents a realistic auction entry into a motorcycle that is otherwise priced beyond the reach of many buyers.
