DescriptionThe whole story▼
A CB650F has no bodywork to sacrifice, so the hit goes straight to the hard parts. The STEHO215 separates the hard outer ring from the frame mount with a TPE element of 60 Shore hardness. A 649 cc machine like the CB650F has the mass to make this worth fitting before the first ride.
Key Features
- The STEHO215 adds 630 g to a CB650F and changes nothing about how it steers
- Anodised to LighTech's standard finish across the whole STEHO215
- Metric hardware throughout the STEHO215, so a CB650F workshop needs nothing special
- Supplied complete with the hardware the CB650F installation needs
- A scuffed STEHO215 shell is renewed on its own rather than costing the whole assembly
- Three materials, three jobs across 630 g: hard outside, light in the middle, soft at the core
- The STEHO215 costs less than the smallest part it defends on a CB650F
Construction and Material Quality
An aluminium ring carries the first contact when the CB650F goes over. Bush and base are magnesium — light where the STEHO215 hangs furthest from the frame. The nylon shell is the sacrificial surface: it scuffs first and costs least to renew.
Fitment and Compatibility
The STEHO215 is catalogued by LighTech for the Honda CB650F and nothing else in this listing. Check the clearance to the surrounding bodywork once fitted and set it with the supplied spacers.
What the Damper Changes
The useful question is not how hard the STEHO215 is, but what the CB650F frame sees afterwards. A damper at 60 Shore is firm enough to hold its shape and soft enough to flatten. The nylon shell scuffs first on the CB650F and costs least of the three materials to renew.
In the Workshop
Everything the CB650F installation needs comes with the STEHO215. Torque to the CB650F workshop figures rather than to feel. The CB650F kit is Black; LighTech does not list an alternative for the STEHO215.
Scope of Delivery
LighTech supplies the STEHO215 as a pair with its mounting hardware for the CB650F. A worn STEHO215 is renewed at the element, not at the kit.
Approval and Road Use
Nothing in the STEHO215 box constitutes a type approval, and we do not imply one. The decision on a road-legal CB650F belongs to your inspection body. Clarify it before fitting if the CB650F is road-registered; for track and paddock use the question does not arise.
