After a test ride I recently bought a NX500 and the upgrades definitely improve it over the previous version. The instrumentation, wind protection, weight and engine mapping are all better. However I still think the CB500X edges it in the looks department.

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Yeah it's still a good looking bike the CB500X. Anyone looking at the NX and looking for used should consider it. The NX500 is like an improvement over the CB500X with all those upgrades.

[@user-jr1cs6ob3m]

30,000 klm on my 21 CB500X. Love the updates happening on the model. Cruise Control please would be awesome on next update

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Awesome bike. What did you have before the CB500X?

[@eddale5557]

And spoked wheels would be perfect!

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

@@eddale5557 with the new design to keep them tubeless

[@murraycharters6102]

Very good review Ben, I neglected to say that in my comments

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Thanks very much. I'll be responding to your other comment in due course. Have a good day

[@pberardis]

Great review. My order is in for the NX, but they are slow coming to the US. Expected delivery pushed from May to June.

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Enjoy it when it arrives. No doubt your excited

[@sandwaves5642]

A very nice comp. !! Very well done !!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Thank you. Appreciate the feedback

[@eddale5557]

The front of the CB 500 X look's much better i think. Wel i got my NX 500 on wednesday and i am very pleased with it, i could not get a better bike in my opininion. 😎

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

The design is good. Can't go wrong with that. It's very much a new design, something to get used too.

[@SuperMadmax1970]

They should make the upgrades on the cb500x. What to do with all these improvements which are not big anyway if you have a bike that you dont like its look especiLly when u co.pare it with the cb500x

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Another reason to consider a used CB500X. 👍🏻

[@edwardfinn4141]

Re The 2023 500x ( which I own) versus the new nx500, This upgrade is mostly a marketing ploy or technique, not that I’m knocking that. The biggest upgrades are the new screen and headlight. Performance, and mechanical, not so much. My wife is taking delivery of the NX500 next week. I will let you know what we think .

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Your bang on there. Although traction control have been added to this model and Honda Roadsync. More a facelift.

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Please do. The CB500X was already a great bike. Be interesting to see your feedback.

[@cainbeeping8480]

Nice I like it.

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Thanks Cain. It is a good looking bike.

[@murraycharters6102]

I am an 80 yo rider in good physical shape. I currently ride a Suzuki VStrom 650 XT a 2017 model which I purchased new in April 2018. My VStrom has traveled 56,000 km, problem free and I am very happy with it. I am interested in the Honda 500 NX ( which is not available in Australia until about September, best guess). The reason I am interested is that I would like to continue riding well into my eighties and if so I will be better off with a lighter bike to ground handle. The VStrom is a fairly top heavy bike and I expect the Honda NX will have a lower center of gravity. A mate had I think a 2017 Honda 500 CBX . I rode it about three years ago and I did not like it. It felt very small to me and at the time I much preferred my VStrom. I will not know how I feel about the 500NX until I ride one, however as I get older I feel I am either going to downsize or stop riding, which I don’t want to do I can only hope that the Honda NX is as impressive as all the reviews I have watched suggest.

[@peozilioli6153]

I'm afraid nx Will not be and bigger than cbx...looks pretty much the same bike tò me

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

Vstrom is a nice bike. It's looking like the NX500 and the CB500X is pretty much the same other than the look. I would suggest you ride the bike and see how it feels. Good luck with your decision.

[@user-rv9gi3kx1t]

Hi sir, would you mind telling me your height, weight and inseam? I too am interested in cb500x/nx500

[@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure]

@@user-rv9gi3kx1t Hi there, sure. 5.11.no idea on the inseem

[@user-rv9gi3kx1t]

@@EireRider.motorcycle.adventure thanks, I'm 5 11 as well. Think I'm gonna pass on the nx500 then if its same size as cb500x and you thought it was small. Have you check out the crf300l rally? If you're not doing interstate or a lot of highway frequently that's a really good one.
