CB500F

CB500F for Sale at Virginia Honda in Virginia, Brisbane, QLD | Specifications and Review Information

The CB500F is an aggressively-styled street-fighter; it's one of Honda's tried-and-trusted formulas, with uncompromising lines that further elevate its technical and mechanical aspects. The CB500F has an entertaining twin-cylinder engine wrapped in a simple, lightweight, sporty chassis, which can be as much fun for a veteran rider as it is for those still building their riding experience. Compact dimensions and welcoming manners make it a great tool for learning plus sensible running costs are ideal for commuting. Those same attributes also make it a genuine pleasure for weekend outings along sweeping winding roads.

Twin cylinder engine

A motorcycle's frame is the basis for its handling. Stronger and lighter, the CB500F'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.

Disc brakes with ABS

Front and rear disc brakes, combined with standard Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps you make smoother, more controlled stops under less-than-ideal riding conditions.

Digital instrument panel

Easy-to-read LCD screen features digital speedometer, tachometer, gear position indicator, clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators.

Diamond-tube frame

Light and strong, the 35mm diameter steel diamond-tube frame gives you plenty of feedback as road surfaces change. The shape and position of the engine mounts combined with the frame's rigidity balance keep vibration to a minimum.

LED lighting

Bright LED headlights and taillight deliver great visibility.

Premium handling

Front suspension is made of Showa 41mm Separate Function Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) inverted forks. At the rear you get a Pro-LinkÂ® set up with adjustable preload. This combination gives you superior reaction and ride quality
