I test rode one and e-clutch is brilliant. It doesn’t change gear automatically, it takes care of all the clutch work automatically. You still change gear with left foot, but you can sit upright at traffic lights with no hands on the bars until you want to twist the throttle and go. It’s revolutionary.

When I am younger, I prefer E-clutch so I can show off my foot work with accurate and flexibility. But when I am old, I need DCT, why I have to take the beating any more. DCT gives me time and less worries to deal with all things are happening around me on the road. Honda is a true innovative house riders trust for decade. JMHO.

Honda has reached peak motorcycle technology. This completely destroys the ease of use advantage that electric bikes have and completely destroys Kawasaki's HEV. Hats off to Honda for innovating.

thanks for the great break down of this new and interesting tech. I will definitely be looking at getting this CB650R.

This is evolution in the motorcycle industry , Well-done Honda !
-
Great explanation thanks for the review.

This is such an amazing piece of technology from Honda! I'm gonna put in my booking for this bike at the end of the month, can't wait!

In Australia not so much news about release date but pre ordered anyway. Can’t wait and thank you for what is first proper review! Bravo 👏

A 750 sport touring honda with the hornet engine, the eclutch and cruise control would be the dream.

This is great news for riders who have a brachial plexus injury (like myself) that causes mobility issues in either the left or right arm. A big step for accessibility for disabilities. Keep up with the great work Honda. Maybe share your design with other manufacturers.

Would be great to see this roll out on the 500s and other models for commuting. It seems like a really good balance between full auto and quickshifters

Amazing

I would like to see more shots showing the bike going up and down the rev range while shifting up and down with the e-clutch and be sure to show the display. It is very interesting to see how the speed matches up with the rpm and to hear the resulting sound when shifting up and down.

Cheers racing and adventure guys

It wasn't cold! 🤣🤣🤣 All best buddy, see you another time!
-
I think this e-clutch feature will make slow speed turns much easier. I do hope to give it a try some day.
-
Can you please explain to me how does that work if the throttle is not "ride by wire" and will the cb650r ever get it?
-
Thank you bro 🫶🏼

I am from India. In 1997 we had a Hero Honda Street bike. It was 100cc and had a 4speed manual gearbox but no clutch lever. They could have easily added a physical clutch lever for better control, if req. How is the eclutch diff then? It just has the manual clutch lever.

how much to replace if dropped?
