THE ADVENTURE STARTS HERE
THE ADVENTURE STARTS HERE
Sometimes you feel like picking a corner of the map and exploring. And sometimes, you need a quick ride to the corner store. For a compact bike that can handle real adventures, and all the commutes in-between, you need the Honda CB500X. The 471cc twin-cylinder engine offers easy-to-access power and plenty of torque. Light and powerful, this bike shines on backroads and city streets alike. Together with rugged styling, long-travel suspension, a tall windscreen and more, it's ready for adventure.
COMFORT
• TALL WINDSCREEN: The CB500X's windscreen offers superior wind protection.
• STEP SEAT: The CB500X seat gives you an open, unrestricted riding position that's perfect for both touring and commuting, and that still offers room for a passenger. The seat's narrow shoulders make it easier to put your feet down at stoplights or in parking lots.
ENGINEERING
• DOHC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE: Offering plenty of power and torque in the midrange, the CB500X's 471cc, liquid-cooled engine features parallel cylinder engines with dual overhead cams. Light, narrow, and powerful, it just strikes the perfect balance of what a mid-sized motorcycle engine should be.
• EXHAUST: Who doesn't love the sound of a twin-cylinder motorcycle? We gave the muffler on the CB500X twin exit pipes. It's a little thing, but it'll make you smile every time you ride.
• PROGRAMMED FUEL INJECTION PGM-FI: The injector bodies help the CB500X make even more power. The bike's PGM-FI continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the existing riding and atmospheric conditions for crisp throttle response throughout a wide variety of riding conditions.
HANDLING
• LONG-TRAVEL FRONT SUSPENSION: The long-stroke 41mm fork yields 5.3 inches of travel. A wide handlebar allows for easy steering inputs.
• DISC BRAKES: The front 320mm disc brake and 240mm rear feature drilled, petal-style rotors that provide strong stopping power.
• PRO-LINK REAR SUSPENSION: A sophisticated chassis with Honda Pro-Link® rear suspension, with 9-stage spring preload and 5.9 inches of travel gives you a comfortable ride over small bumps, while capably absorbing bigger bumps to increase riding comfort and handling. The shock absorber features large-diameter internals for even better damping characteristics and a smoother ride.
STYLE
• UNIQUE STYLE: Like your favorite blue jeans, the CB500X just looks right--tough, capable, no-nonsense. Plus, the adventure-bike posture and seating position let you move around freely--just like your jeans!
• DIGITAL INSTRUMENTATION: A fresh, modern, easy-to-read LCD screen features digital speedometer and tachometer and more, including a clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators.
• LED LIGHTING: With a clean, rough-and-ready look, the CB500X's LED headlight and multi-facet reflector project plenty of light on the road for visibility.
