Hi Kory I have a 2022 CB500 x, with 14,000 miles on it, I solved the problem with the seat, I took it to the upholstery shop and the redone my seat by having more foam layers and new skin, it cost $200, but the the seat is amazingly comfortable now and I can ride my bike for hours and I don't feel tired. I recommended that if you want to keep your bike, that investment is worthy %100.

I know the 250 isn’t the same motor but very similar. I want to put the turbo in the stock airbox location. So far with my current setup though I’ve been able to hit 88mph with a 18t/46t setup.

Hi, thanks for posting your journeys, people don't realize we have so much space to explore in America, not just tourist places. I have the same bike 2023 model, love it and I've had lots of bikes over the years. I will buy panniers and a bike rack, yes a mountain bike rack so I can adventure off road, saving gas and going mountain biking. I'm moving back to Spokane WA soon, winters are a bummer but still WA has so much to explore. Anyways, just shows what we can do on 2 wheels, and a fairly inexpensive bike. How many miles on your bike, any issues so far? You really should wear a camelback water pack for hydration.

In '71 my friend down the street bought a new 350 Bridgestone GTO with his paper route money, at a small town 25 miles away. The "dealer" sold one or two Bridgestones out of his garage which was attached to his house. My friend wanted me to go with him so he could pick it up. I was barely 15 at the time. We went up there in his '63 Dodge Polara convertible on a nice summer day. He wanted me to drive the car back but I had about zero experience driving a car, and he wants me to get out on the highway at 55 mph? No way, I told him. I said I would ride the bike back because I had lots of riding experience on a moped, riding on farm trails. He reluctantly agreed to let me ride the bike back, and from the driveway of the "dealership" which connected with the 55 mph highway, I entered the highway, a bit close to an oncoming car, so I gave it some throttle and it pulled the front wheel up and I shifted and gave it some more throttle. Trouble was avoided and I was going along nicely at 55. Nice bike. The shifter he told me was all down to shift up in the gears. No problem. I remembered that just fine. Since I had no previous experience with shifting motorcycles, I had no habits to overcome. I had some experience with a clutch on a neighbor's scooter in his small backyard which did have a hand clutch. All was good, all the way back to town. He was impressed with my riding skills and happy to get his brand new 350 GTO home. His had crossed checkered flags on the tank. I remember that. It was white with black strips and such. Nice bike. The next year he traded it in on a 350 Kaw.

Having to stop and restart my mower EVERY time i get off it wears out your starter and your battery in about HALF the time.

Not familiar with the oil drainage issue with the CB and center stand. But, I can say that on other bikes I have found that using some heavy duty aluminum foil allows one to easily "custom mold" a "chute" to direct oil into a drain pan rather than all over the floor. I normally tear off a piece large enough to allow folding it a few times to make a 3 or 4 layer thick sheet, then use that to mold around things and direct the oil wherever I want. Enjoyed your honest, actual ownership perspective of the bike, BTW. Considering picking up one of these and selling a couple of my KTMs. I love my 390s for a fun small, lightweight exploration bike. But as I near retirement and thinking of a longer term long distance retirement bike with potentially more durability/reliability than the KTMs, the Honda seems like a logical choice.

Been doing this for 40 + years. I've used lead fishing wts or bird shot. It actually works best if you pore liquid lead in, but I've not done that. I just hammered on the lead to compact it. It changes the resonant frequency of the bars, lowering it by increasing the mass. I use bar end mirrors on all my bikes, so something has to replace the mass of the removed bar end wts. While the resonant equation is not perfectly linear, it is very close, and as such adding more wt will continue to improve the vibration felt. The vibration felt can be tuned by varying the added wt.
