2024 Honda CB650R and CBR650R with E-Clutch Video Review

The 2024 Honda CBR650R is equipped with Honda’s new E-Clutch system, which removes the need to use the clutch lever at all. Find out how it feels to ride the CBR650R and CB650R with E-Clutch in our video review. (Photo courtesy American Honda)

The 2024 Honda CB650R naked and CBR650R full-faired sportbike receive upgrades, most significantly the introduction of Honda's new and innovative E-Clutch system.

From the same company that introduced the Dual-Clutch Transmission in 2010, the E-Clutch removes the need for the rider to use the clutch at all, requiring only shifting up or down with the foot shifter. The clutch remains operational for riders who choose to use it, and the E-Clutch system can be set to three different operational feel settings.

To experience this new clutch system and other upgrades in action, we travel to Dahlonega, Georgia, where we put the bikes through their paces at Atlanta Motorsports Park and on curvy roads in northern Georgia. For seasoned riders, getting accustomed to a new clutch system can take time, but once we had a few miles with it, the real fun began.

Watch the video above to learn more about the Honda CB650R, CBR650R, and the E-Clutch system, and subscribe to our YouTube channel to get updates on all new motorcycle reviews and videos.
