Kove 650RR: 80 kW and a track-bred road brief
The new 650RR pairs a 645 cc engine with a bidirectional quickshifter and Cornering ABS, with deliveries due from Q3 2027.
Kove has unveiled the 650RR, a supersport motorcycle developed around a racing brief while retaining approval for road use. Its power comes from a liquid-cooled 645 cc, 16-valve DOHC engine, rated at 80 kW at 13,000 rpm and 60 Nm at 11,000 rpm.
Chassis, suspension and rider aids
A ride-by-wire throttle is paired with three riding modes—Standard, Sport and Custom—as well as a bidirectional quickshifter. The double-beam chassis makes the engine a load-bearing element, and is built around an aluminium subframe, an aluminium swingarm and adjustable suspension.
Braking is handled by twin floating front discs and four-piston calipers. Cornering ABS and traction control form part of the electronic safety package. The motorcycle has a 195 kg kerb weight, a 17-litre aluminium fuel tank and an 810 mm seat height.
Display, cameras and timing
The equipment list extends to a six-inch TFT display with MotoPlay, front and rear cameras and lane-change assist. Kove has scheduled the first 650RR deliveries to start in the third quarter of 2027. That gives the model a road-legal role without disguising its intended connection with racing development and track riding.
