The Honda FMX650 feels light, flickable and the beefy 45mm upside-down forks handle town action with contempt.
The Honda FMX650 is well made of proven components borrowed from other, older Honda motorcycles. It’s sturdy and low-speed drops do nothing than scratch the Honda FMX650's cheaply replaceable plastics.
The Honda FMX650 feels light, flickable and the beefy 45mm upside-down forks handle town action with contempt. One thing the Honda FMX650 doesn’t want for is brakes – it may only have a single disc and a sliding pin, twin-piston front brake but it’s a combination that’s well able to haul the motorcycle up quickly.
