Multiple SizesHonda Standard category features various sizes of bikes to cater to many types of riders. From 300cc to 1000cc there are options for beginners to advanced riders. |
More Power, More TorqueThe 471 cc DOHC liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine uses a square bore & stroke of 67 mm x 66.8 mm for an optimum combination of strong low-end torque and excellent top-end power and performance. |
Assist Slipper ClutchNot only does the assist slipper clutch on the new CB500F help to prevent rear-wheel lockup on downshifts, it also reduces effort at the lever by almost half, helping to reduce rider fatigue particularly in city traffic or on long rides. |
Easy ShiftingThe gear indicator and adjustable shift-up indicator make it even easier to use the smooth-shifting six-speed gearbox on the CB500F naked. |
Lightweight FrameThe lightweight diamond-shaped steel frame was designed to allow a certain degree of yield, which enables it to better respond to changes in the road surface and to transmit just the right amount of feedback to the rider. |
Comfortable, Sporty SuspensionThe upgraded suspension (compared to the previous generation) on the Honda CB500F includes a Showa 41mm Separate Function Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) USD forks – the same found on the CBR650R. Additionally, the Pro-Link® rear suspension compliments the front suspension with more lateral flex and a single-tube shock absorber with five-stage spring preload adjustment. |
Lightweight WheelsLightweight cast aluminum wheels with Y-shaped spokes not only look trick on the CBF500F motorcycle, they also contribute to the bike’s excellent manoeuvrability. |
Powerful BrakingExperience strong and easily conptrolled stopping power -- the front has been updated with dual disc brakes with radial-mounted calipers, while the back features a single-piston caliper. Plus, two-channel ABS gives you extra peace of mind on reduced-traction road surfaces. Wave brake rotors with superlative heat-dissipating qualities are lighter than conventional discs of the same diameter, which help to further reduce the bike’s unsprung weight. |
Convenient StorageA utility space under the seat accommodates a U-lock, wet weather gear or other items. |
More UpgradesThe CB500F’s impressive list of premium features now includes brighter LEDs and new PGM-FI settings to improve engine character with increased power to low-end torque. |
