In an announcement today, American Honda confirmed that Honda E-Clutch technology will be offered to U.S. customers on the 2024 CB650R and CBR650R. Previously unveiled in Europe, the cutting-edge feature delivers several benefits, making the riding experience easier, sportier and less fatiguing. Now available to U.S. customers on Honda’s middleweight standard and sport bikes, Honda E-Clutch is appealing to riders of widely varying skill and experience levels, enabling all to focus on the fun of riding more comfortably. In addition to E-Clutch, the new CB650R and CBR650R receive other important updates, including styling, LED lighting and a new TFT screen.

“Honda has long been a pioneer in the field of innovative motorcycle clutch and transmission technology, and we’re pleased to continue that tradition with the 2024 CB650R and CBR650R,” said Colin Miller, Manager of Public Relations at American Honda. “By eliminating the need to pull in a clutch lever during starts, gear changes and stops, E-Clutch simplifies riding and makes it more enjoyable for beginners and experts alike. And yes, if and when you prefer to ride in a traditional manner, the clutch lever can still be used.”

Today’s announcement also included a number of new 2025 models, highlighted by the flagship CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP. Proven capable of routinely winning the Stock 1000 class this MotoAmerica road race season, the Fireblade now features a host of significant upgrades aimed at elevating performance even more. Also revealed were four returning on-road models: the CBR1000R and CBR600R supersport models, the CB300R standard and the Monkey miniMOTO.

All of the models in this announcement are scheduled to be available in dealers in September.

2024 CB650R
Honda’s long history of creating iconic middleweight standards takes another giant step forward for the 2024 model year, as the popular CB650R welcomes high-tech E-Clutch technology to the motorcycle world. Intended to make riding sportier, easier and less tiring, the new feature (also offered on the CBR650R) brings more enjoyment and flexibility across a wide range of scenarios, for a next-level riding experience that is freer and more comfortable, characteristics that are appealing to a broad range of riders. With an updated Neo Sports Café look to celebrate the new technology, the CB650R is a naked bike with looks that match its impressive performance, well-suited for daily commutes and weekend outings on twisty backroads. To further add to the look and feel of the CB650R, and enhance the riding experience, nine Honda Accessories are offered.

2024 CBR650R
Delivering an ideal mix of practicality and performance, Honda’s middleweight sport bike boasts a finely tuned chassis delivering light, responsive handling, as well as a high-revving inline-four-cylinder engine that offers enjoyable power. For the 2024 model year, the CBR650R (alongside its standard CB650R sibling) has also been bestowed with the notable responsibility of introducing high-tech Honda E-Clutch technology to the motorcycle world. Ensuring its worthiness of such a distinction, the model gets a number of styling and convenience upgrades, making it even more of a pleasure to own for a wide spectrum of riders, and a gratifying intersection of values for the modern sport-bike enthusiast. To add to the upgraded styling and conveniences of the CBR650R, nine Honda Accessories are offered.

2025 CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP
Boasting ultimate technology that has proven capable of regularly winning Stock 1000 races in MotoAmerica (America’s AMA-sanctioned top-level national championship), the CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP is designed and developed with zero compromises when it comes to maximum performance, drawing upon a record of continuous accomplishments. Street legal but track-ready, the legendary Fireblade is the epitome of high spec, and it benefits from a host of significant upgrades for 2025. With elite electronic suspension, highly advanced rider aids and an ultra-capable inline four-cylinder engine, it all adds up to a game changer in the tradition of the original CBR models.

2025 CBR1000RR
The archetype of Honda’s “Total Control” philosophy, the CBR1000RR combines light weight and maneuverability with optimal power. With a racing pedigree like few others, this superbike excels in the most competitive environments while also appealing to discriminating motorcyclists who demand the highest possible performance from their daily rider. The CBR1000RR is available in ABS and non-ABS versions, both versions guaranteeing superior performance, feel and feedback at local track days, amateur road races or twisty canyon roads.

2025 CBR600RR
When it comes to a motorcycle that’s in its element both on and off the racetrack, it just doesn’t get any better than Honda’s CBR600RR. Of course, this is no surprise, considering it boasts a high-performance inline-four engine and responsive Showa suspension inspired by Honda’s extensive racing heritage. Available in ABS and non-ABS versions, the CBR600RR delivers racetrack-level performance at an accessible price.

2025 CB300R
With a stance that is minimalist yet aggressive, the CB300R continues its reign as the entry-level bike for riders with attitude. The smallest of the CB models, it takes its naked-bike styling seriously, putting fully blacked-out hardware on display for all to see. That said, its appeal extends beyond looks; the CB300R also features many of the higher-performance attributes found on its larger-displacement siblings, such as a light weight, aluminum wheels and ABS brakes. Combine these modern features with an affordable price and it’s easy to see why the CB300R is often the bike of choice for riders who are new to the sport.

2025 Monkey
Back again for 2025, Honda’s iconic Monkey continues to make friends and influence people wherever it goes. An irresistible mix of nostalgic styling and modern performance, this nifty little ride appeals to a variety of riders, from entry-level newbies to motorcycling veterans. A compact build and comfortably plush suspension speak to the former, while the latter appreciate the throwback styling, as well as features like the snappy 124cc fuel-injected engine and ABS brakes. All in all, the Monkey combines the best of today and yesterday in one charmingly retro, affordable package.
