2021 Honda Motorcycle Lineup: Review, Prices, & Specs

 

The 2021 Fireblade SP in pearl white color way is one of Honda's best super sports in the 2021 lineup.

 

Super Sport

2021 Honda CBR1000RR-R Fireblade SP

We recently covered Honda’s brand new Fireblade SP in a recent post. In summation – while there are too many ‘Rs’ in the name, everything else about this machine is built for speed and setting bonkers lap times. Love it. MSRP – $28,500

2021 Honda CBR600RR ABS 

A red and blue HOnda CBR600RR ABS is one of the highlights of the company's 2021 lineup.

Easily one of the most recognizable and legendary machines in Honda’s stable is the CBR600RR. The screaming inline four-cylinder engine, twin-spar aluminum chassis, premium suspension, and a track record a mile long (at least). MSRP – $11,899

 

Sport

2021 Honda CBR650R 

2021 Honda CBR650R in black, is a sportsbike in the Honda 2021 lineup.

The 650R packs a 649cc inline four-cylinder motor into its frame, along with loads of sporting DNA and aggressive styling, but offers riders a slightly more approachable riding experience and more comfortable ergonomics. Think of it as a beautiful compromise. MSRP – $9,699

2021 Honda CBR500R ABS

Looking for a sport bike, but don’t want or need one capable of warp speed? The CBR500R (now with ABS as standard in 2021), looks like a sport bike, rides like a sport bike, and offers sport bike thrills, just with a 471cc parallel-twin engine. MSRP – $6,999

 

2021 Honda CBR300R ABS 

2021 Honda CBR300R ABS is another lower engine power sport bike in their 2021 lineup.

And the same goes for the CBR300R. It has all the delightful sport bike intangibles, but with more of a focus on newer riders or those looking for a machine where handling and tactile enjoyment come first. MSRP – $4,699

Neo-Sports Cafe 2021 Honda CB650R ABS 

Unleash your passion for riding with the sleek and powerful 2021 Honda CB650R ABS Neo-Sports Cafe motorcycle

In my humble opinion, the CB650R is the best-looking bike Honda makes. I love the slabby, angular styling, upright riding position, single round headlight, and punchy 649cc engine. It does neo-retro oh so well. MSRP – $9,199 2021

Honda CB300R ABS – Think of this as the younger sibling to the CB650R. Sweet fairing-free looks, standard riding position, lightweight, and character in spades. This is pure riding. MSRP – $4,949

 

Touring

2021 Honda Gold Wing 

2021 Honda Gold Wing in charcoal grey is a touring bike in the Honda 2021 lineup.

 The 2021 Honda Gold Wing might be the ultimate touring machine. It’s absolutely loaded with technology and powered by a colossal 1,833cc liquid-cooled six-cylinder engine. Opt for the Gold Wing DCT, and you won’t even have to worry about shifting – the automatic DCT transmission (it has a reverse gear, too!) will take care of that for you. You and your passenger will conquer miles in serene comfort, smoothness, and speed. It also looks sick. MSRP – $23,800

2021 Honda Gold Wing Tour 

The 2021 Honda Gold Wing Tour in black is a 2021 Honda touring bike in the lineup.

And the Gold Wing Tour is just more, better, and bigger. It features 50 liters of storage space, a full reverse gear from the automatic DCT transmission, and an electronically preloaded suspension. This is the cream of the Gold Wing crop. MSRP – $27,500

 

Cruiser

2021 Honda Rebel 1100

2021 Honda Rebel 1100 is a cruiser with berry colored detailing, all featured in the 2021 lineup.

Classic cruiser ergonomics, style, and power are on full display here with the Rebel 1100. Only available in either black or white, the Rebel manages to look stealthy and subtle while making a definitive statement on the road. MSRP – $9,299

2021 Honda Rebel 500 & ABS

2021 Honda Rebel 500 & ABS features ABS, is a great cruiser in the mid-weight cruiser categories.

 The Rebel 500 expands on the 1100’s classic cruiser style and adds higher swept-back bars, forward controls, and a low seat making this bike a true cruiser. MSRP – $6,299

The Honda Rebel 500 has to be one of my favorite Hondas. It looks great, has a gem of an engine, is a viable option for both newer riders and seasoned vets and looks like almost nothing else on the road. Color me a fan of this machine. MSRP – $6,199

2021 Honda Rebel 300 ABS 

The 2021 Honda Rebel 300 ABS is cruiser fun with limited horsepower, perfect for beginners.

The same goes for the Rebel 300. The same customizable, stylish platform with an even more friendly nature. And, it has a terrific starting price. MSRP – $4,499

 

Adventure

The 2021 Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES DCT is a great adventure bike in the 2021 lineup.

2021 Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES DCT

The Africa Twin is another legendary Honda machine. And for 2021, it can be had in several different trims and specs including the top-tier Adventure Sports ES DCT, that last bit stands for the automatic DCT transmission. Electronically controlled suspension, adjustable windscreen, big fuel tank, tubeless tires, and plenty of power make this iteration of the Africa Twin a serious adventure machine. MSRP – $17,199

2021 Honda Africa Twin DCT

And the standard Africa Twin is no slouch. It offers up-sweet tech like cruise control and a touchscreen display, a powerful 1,084cc parallel-twin engine, electronic fuel injection, and some of the best off-road credentials you can find. MSRP – $14,399

2021 Honda NC750X DCT ABS

With the NC750X, you can have your adventure riding and on-street performance too. A parallel-twin engine, Honda Selectable Torque Control, DCT transmission, and other goodies, this machine is ready to rip on road and off. MSRP – $8,099

2021 Honda CB500X ABS

For 2021, the CB500X gets ABS as standard equipment, a sweet upgrade. It’s powered by a 471cc parallel twin and, like the NC750X, can handle both light-duty off-road riding, and can handle asphalt twisties with ease. Hooray, for adventure bikes! MSRP – $6,999

 

Dual Sport

The red 2021 Honda CRF450RL is a staple in Honda's 2021 off-road motorcycle lineup.

2021 Honda XR650L

And then we have the dual-sports. More dirt than pavement-focused, machines like the XR650L are a blast to ride. The 650L uses a 644cc single-cylinder engine, is held aloft by long travel suspension, and has both on and off-road cred to spare. MSRP – $6,999

2021 Honda CRF450RL

For 2021, the CRF450L sees several updates including handguards, snazzy graphics, an ECU update, and new fuel-injection settings. A 499cc single beats in its aluminum frame, and it makes plenty of power for any application. MSRP – $9,999

2021 Honda CRF250L ABS

The CRF250L is such a popular machine for a reason. It offers up several great features, makes plenty of power, can shred on almost any terrain, and rings at a very reasonable starting price. It looks great, too! MSRP – $5,199

2021 Honda CRF250L Rally ABS

Looking for a CRF250L, but wish it had a little more. The 250L Rally is your machine. Mechanically the same as the 250L, the Rally package adds a larger fuel tank, unique bodywork and graphics, factory-installed handguards, a windscreen, new front fairing, a skid plate, and even beefier suspension. Get ready to shred. MSRP – $6,249
