(The instrument console appears to be slightly bigger than the previous generation model, and under the 810 mm seat there's a USB Type C socket to allow charging of mobile phones and other equipment while on the move. The visual changes to the bike are minimal, although the side panels will be slightly smaller than before, enhancing the design, and the rear mudguard is now constructed from steel rather than plastic)

(The neo-retro Honda CB650R gets full-LED lighting, dual-channel ABS, slip/assist clutch, Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) or traction control.

There's also an LCD display with a negative backlit that looks functional and packs in plenty of information.)
