2016 Honda 500 Series CBR500R, CB500F and CB500X Motorcycles

All three of Honda’s A2-licence 500cc models - the naked CB500F, sporty CBR500R and crossover-styled CB500X - have their punchy performance complemented by several rider-focussed revisions to further enhance desirability and ownership experience. Upgrades include LED head and taillights, adjustable pre-load on the front suspension, adjustable brake levers, larger fuel tanks with new hinged fuel cap and “wave” style ignition keys.
In addition, the CB500F naked street bike is given a hard-edged visual makeover thanks to a new stripped-down, muscular look complemented by a range of 6 vibrant colour options; the sporty CBR500R has a complete new kind of CBR style with sharp and edgy character lines flowing from its new front face through to the upswept tail. Both F and R have new shorter exhaust mufflers with internal structure tuned for a satisfying low, crisp exhaust note. The CB500X’s revisions include a 100mm taller, adjustable windscreen and distinctive new graphics and colours; the larger tank brings range to over 500km.

500f looks really nice

[@pas0003]

Looks great! Nearly bought a 500r but got put off by the styling and choppy engine, so went for cb400 instead. This looks like a huge upgrade in the looks department at least! Cool ad as well!

[@maximepelletier2778]

So nice millesime

[@ZAR0-G]

They should've given the R a supersport riding position

[@MarcialWills]

[@willbrewin3743]

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

do they come with gear indicators?

[@myztklk3v]

same gauge as the 2013-15 so, no.

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

+Myztkl-Kev gaaad dammit haha

[@tuor75100]

+Daniel Schlegel Just curious but why do you need a gear indicator :p ? Ok, true, it's a nice plus but after a while it's totally useless :D

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

+Arthur Boudart sometimes, on my bike.. i'm chillin at the lights and then i want to start, drop a gear and end up at the 2nd gear haha dont ask me why i have a neutral between 2 and 3

[@myztklk3v]

the new 500r looks nice. I was going to get a used one next season but I might have to shell out. That exhaust though, they just keep getting uglier and bulkier

[@busboy3232]

It's not the exhaust that's getting uglier and bulkier it's the shitty government rules on emission that's getting stricter and uglier. Nothing a nice slip on can't fix

[@Haziqevo]

+Myztkl-Kev true dude. I've got myself the 2014R and straight away got rid of the rear seats, handles and the stock pipe.

[@Daniel-dj7fh]

better than the last one tho, i cant stand the silver can haha

[@myztklk3v]

+Daniel Schlegel I decided to get a used 2013 500r, has a coffmans slip-on already. thing doesnt even have 5000kms on it and they want 4500. pretty good deal to me

[@rcflight13]

+Myztkl-Kev Take it on a tour to somewhere you've never been and you'll absolutely love it. Bought a 2013 500R about 2 years ago and toured the whole of Australia all on winding backroads. Always been an excellent bike, never had an issue. I recently upgraded to a 2014 Ninja 1000 and still ride the 500R more because the steering is so light you can just have more fun throwing it into corners.

[@pd414]

nice bike. Wish every sport bike video on the internet didn't have shitty ass dubstep music though... That really needs to stop

[@bank9771]

Thar are 2015 not 2016

[@bank9771]
