Honda 2 Wheelers India has updated its website with pictures and details of the 2017 CBR 650F. This leads us to believe that it could be launched soon. 

According to a media report from last month, Honda is likely to launch the 2017 CBR 650F in India during the festive season. While, the website still doesn't mention the price, it does shed some light on the technical details of the updated model. It also confirms that the 2017 CBR 650F will be available in the choice of two colours - Millenium Red and Matt Gunpowder Black Metallic.

The 2017 model gets LED headlights and tail light but retains its overall proportions. It measures 2,107 mm length, 753 mm in width, 1,149 mm in height and has a wheelbase of 1,449 mm. It has 133 mm of ground clearance and weighs 216 kg. It comes with a 17.3 litre fuel tank.

The 2017 CBR 650F is powered by a 648.72cc, liquid-cooled, in-line 4-cylinder engine which makes 85.4 BHP @ 11,000 rpm and 60.5 Nm of torque @ 8,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. It uses 41 mm telescopic fork suspension in the front and monoshock at the rear. Brakes come in the form of 320 mm dual discs with 2-piston calipers in the front and a 240 mm disc with a single piston caliper in the rear.
