by my reconning, some markets are not getting the 2017 until late enough to call it the 2018.

we also appear to back to 5 or 6 schemes spread randomly around the world.

I'm really diggin the headlights on these new 17-18s. It almost looks like a face of a cheetah. I wonder if these would be plug and play with older models.

we have been hanging for the parts fiche for almost half a year.
it is strongly suspected that the headlight and the panels immediately next to it are different. not sure about the mounting points also.
 
USA website got updated too, CB650F is coming for the first time:

I am excited about CB650F. Last year I wanted to buy the CBR650F ABS but I am not a great fan of black color. So I contacted a dealer in Canada and got all the Silver colored parts including the gas tank. Now I can buy the CB650F and stick the fairings to it. The added advantage is it comes with a handle bar that's taller and more upright!

was about time to bring the naked version of the 650f in north america. I think they will sell more CBs than CBRs, naked versions are popular here. Honda will have a bike to compete the FZ07.

I have the new CB650F. I had a CBR650F before. The headlight on the old model was good... but on the new one it's incredible. You don't need high beam most of the time.

Just bought a 2018 CB650F and now waiting for it to arrive at the dealership!
Lucky you had the option between CBR and CB; back in spring 2015 there was only the CBR over here. I have not seen one on the road yet and I did not passed at a dealer to look at it but it is tempting to go for the naked version.

Check your owners manual for the break in period, you may be pleasantly surprised at how minimalist it is.
