Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP vs Kawasaki Versys 650

The Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP (2025) and the Kawasaki Versys 650 (2026) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP is a sport bike with 1,000 cc, 214.6 hp and 201 kg; the Kawasaki Versys 650 is a adventure bike with 649 cc, 65.7 hp and unlisted weight. Power-to-weight with the rider: 777.4 hp/ton versus 229.0 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP is 240% ahead.

In the simulation the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 2.96 s and the Kawasaki Versys 650 in 3.79 s; the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP is quicker by 0.83 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 36.4 m for the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP (with ABS) and 41.4 m for the Kawasaki Versys 650 (with ABS). The Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP stops 5.0 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 315 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 176 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP and model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the Kawasaki Versys 650. Missing manufacturer data (weight) is estimated by class regression, not measured. Open the interactive app (currently in Turkish) to watch the run side by side and change the load.
