Key features

Twin cylinder engine

The light and narrow 471cc parallel cylinder engine offers plenty of power and torque in the midrange, striking the perfect balance of what a mid-sized motorcycle engine should be. PGM-FI continuously ensures the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the conditions, giving you crisp throttle response at all times.

Long travel suspension

Front suspension is made of Showa 41mm Separate Function Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) inverted forks with 135mm axle travel. The Pro-Link® rear suspension, with adjustable preload and 135mm of travel, gives you a comfortable ride over bumps, with superior riding comfort and handling.

Adjustable windscreen

The CB500X is as much about function as form, with the fairing and screen (with two height settings – 1,445mm and 1,410mm) designed to provide the best possible wind protection for the rider at various speeds.

19" front wheel

The 19-inch front wheel, combined with long suspension travel, ensures confident, stable handling on rough surfaces.

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.

LED lighting

Bright LED headlights and taillight deliver great visibility.
