EVERY RIDE IS A VICTORY LAP
Turn every curb into your personal podium, with a street bike that has a fit and finish worthy of the Grand Prix. We're talking about the Honda CBR500R, the perfect combination of performance, versatility and price. It comes stock with an always-reliable 471cc twin-cylinder engine, steel tube frame, programed fuel-injectors, aggressive supersport styling and more. Compact and responsive, every ride on the Honda CBR500R will have you feeling like you're in the winners' circle.
COMFORT
• STEP SEAT: The CBR500R offers a stepped two-piece seat with a low height. Perfect for around-town riding or winding roads, it also offers room for a passenger and is specially designed to fit a wide range of riders.
ENGINEERING
• ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS): Available ABS on the CBR500R helps you make confident stops under less-than-ideal conditions.
• DIGITAL INSTRUMENTATION: A LCD screen features a digital speedometer and tachometer and more, including a clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters, and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators.
• DISC BRAKES: The front 320mm disc brake and 240mm rear feature drilled, petal-style rotors that provide strong stopping power. The front-brake lever is also adjustable for a perfect fit.
HANDLING
• STEEL-TUBE FRAME: A motorcycle's frame is the basis for its handling. Stronger and lighter, the CBR500R's diamond-shaped 35mm steel-tube mainframe ties to the engine with four mounts, offering a rock-solid foundation for a superior ride and handling.
• CAST WHEELS: Strong and stylish, the CBR500R's aluminum Y-spoke cast wheels are easy to keep clean, look great, and are another feature that just makes sense.
• PRO-LINK® REAR SUSPENSION: The CBR500R features special shock settings for improved ride comfort. Its sophisticated chassis uses Honda's Pro-Link® rear suspension; the nine-stage preload and 4.7 inches of travel gives you a comfortable ride over small bumps, while capably absorbing bigger bumps to increase riding comfort and handling.
PERFORMANCE
• DOHC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE: Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the CBR500R's engine is one of our best ever. With good low-end horsepower and torque, the parallel-twin offers accessible performance across all RPM ranges.
• PROGRAMMED FUEL INJECTION (PGM-FI): PGM-FI continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the existing riding and atmospheric conditions, ensuring a crisp throttle response throughout a wide variety of riding. Programed fuel injectors increase power and torque in the midrange.
• STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST: With a dual-outlet muffler that you need to hear for yourself, this beautifully polished stainless-steel exhaust is integrated with the rear footpeg set for clean, functional design. The exhaust tucks in tight for better mass centralization (and consequently better handling).
STYLE
• SUPERSPORT STYLING: The CBR500R's aggressive styling comes with two great color options, that keeps it right at the front of the pack in terms of eye-appeal. The aerodynamic bodywork also provides significant advantages in air management for added rider comfort, along with a low drag coefficient and effective cooling.
