Can you ride the Honda CB650F on an A2 licence?
Yes, you can ride the Honda CB650F (2017 - 2019) on an A2 motorbike licence. However, you will need to fit a restrictor kit to reduce its power output and make it A2 licence compliant!
Honda CB650F (2017 - 2019)
The 2017 Honda CB650F is an inline-four cylinder bike that has slightly more sporty specifications compared to the 2014 model. The motorcycle feels powerful yet compact in size, so it is an ideal bike for slightly more experienced A2 licence holders.
It comes with an aggressive riding position, which will put you right up over the front of the bike. But, it is by no means an uncomfortable motorcycle to ride. In fact, the level of comfort is pretty high and you can easily ride the bike both on motorways and around town.
There are not that many 4-cyclinder motorcycles in the middleweight naked bikes category and the Honda CB650F is without a doubt one of the best options on the market.
A2 Licence Compliance
The Honda CB650F is a 649cc A2-friendly standard bike. It has a power output of 66 kW (90 bhp), which exceeds the 35 kW (47 bhp) limit needed for an A2 licence. The bike has to be restricted by at least 46.9% to become A2 licence compliant.
You will need a restrictor to ride the Honda CB650F on an A2 motorbike licence. See the restrictor kits section to check out what restrictors are available for the Honda CB650F.
