ABS now comes standard on the CB500F,
helping you make smoother, more controlled
stops under less-than-ideal conditions.
The slipper/assist clutch lets us lighten up
the clutch-lever e ort by 45 percent, but
automatically locks up tight when you release it.
The CB500F o ers a step seat with a low
height. Perfect for around-town riding or out in
the canyons, it also o ers plenty of room for a
passenger and is specially designed to t a wide
range of riders.
The new CB500F comes equipped with an attractive negative-display LCD dash that presents all the information you need in a clear and concise way. It includes a speedo and rev-counter, dual trip meters, fuel level and consumption gauges, and a Gear Position indicator.
DOHC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE
Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and
the CB500F’s engine is one of our best ever.
With plenty of low-end horsepower and torque,
this parallel-twin o ers accessible performance
across all RPM ranges.
Full LED lighting gives the CB500F a contemporary edge. It’s also more efficient, which means it makes less of a demand on the electrical system and causes less drag on the engine.
The CB500F is designed around the concept of mass centralisation. The heavier parts of the bike, including the engine, are placed as close together as possible toward the centre of the machine, substantially improving steering and handling.
The CB500F is equipped with Honda’s Emergency Stop Signal to instantaneously warn other drivers in the event of sudden braking. The ABS modulator detects abrupt braking at speeds of 56km/h or more and automatically activates the front and rear hazard lights to warn any nearby vehicles.
The CB500F is a motorcycle stripped back to its purest state. The tightly wrapped, aggressive new style shows off the machine’s parallel twin-cylinder engine. The wide, tapered aluminium handlebars give it a street fighter’s signature. A redesigned fuel tank cuts down on bulk and provides increased capacity to allow you more time on the road. And full LED lighting adds a premium finishing touch.
Rapidly accelerating from a standing start at a traffic light or racing through the slick six-speed gearbox at high rpm out on the open road: the CB500F offers you an infinite new playground.
The CB500F features a crisp, inverse-display LCD dash with Gear Position and Shift Up indicator. Tapered handlebars offer leverage, feel and complete control while LED lighting – including indicators – is a premium finishing touch. The 41mm telescopic forks are adjustable for spring pre-load as is the new, high-quality single-tube Pro-Link rear monoshock.
