DescriptionThe whole story▼

There is nothing cosmetic between a CB650F and the ground. LighTech builds the WAPHO404 as a nylon-over-Ergal sandwich, 200 g complete, for exactly this situation. It is offered in 2 colours: Black, Red. The 649 cc CB650F carries it on standard fixings, so nothing is drilled.

Key Features

  • Black, Red — one WAPHO404 kit, 2 ways to match the CB650F
  • Front and rear of the CB650F are both covered by the single WAPHO404 kit
  • Ergal is the alloy family LighTech also uses for its CB650F rearsets
  • The WAPHO404 adds 200 g to a CB650F and changes nothing about how it steers
  • Fitting the WAPHO404 to a CB650F is measured in minutes, not hours
  • LighTech part number WAPHO404, catalogued for the Honda CB650F

Why an Axle Slider Works

The principle is simple and the execution is not: stand proud, give way, stay attached. Nylon on the outside of the WAPHO404 deforms under impact and springs back afterwards. A scuffed WAPHO404 is renewed at the insert, not at the kit, which is the point.

Compatibility and Installation

Fitment is the Honda CB650F, 2014 to 2020. Nothing on the CB650F has to be cut; the kit bolts to what is there.

Materials and Construction

The outer body of the WAPHO404 is nylon, chosen for elasticity rather than hardness. The coloured core is Ergal, light enough not to matter on the CB650F and strong enough to hold. LighTech sells the coloured inner part in pairs, so the WAPHO404 is a serviceable assembly.

Supplied As

LighTech packs the WAPHO404 with everything the CB650F axles need and nothing they do not. LighTech keeps the WAPHO404 in its spare parts programme rather than treating it as disposable.

In the Workshop

The WAPHO404 arrives complete; no separate fastener order is required for the CB650F. Torque to the CB650F workshop figures rather than to feel. Black, Red: 2 finishes of the same WAPHO404, identical in fit on the CB650F.

Road Approval

LighTech supplies no type-approval document with the WAPHO404, and we make no approval claim for it. Rules differ by country; in Germany the CB650F inspection is where this comes up. We would rather you asked first than discovered it at the inspection.
