Summary : Not a single con of NX 500 , it's the buyer's remorse or overexpectation . What I can understand owner thought it would be good for two up touring with luggage with fast acceleration like big bikes but NX500 said have mercy ( ab bacche ki jaan lega kya ) 😂😂😂

I have nx500 and this bike i can say all rounder motorcycle Zero heat at peak summer, top quality, refined and reliable engine,great comfort ride, suspension and breaks are superb which gives you confidence at high speeds, good pillion comfort, and power whenever you wants. Bike can touch 170 and 160 with pillion. I think reviewer has street triple and comparing with it he feels nx500 has less power. And no point of comparing twin cylinder with single cylinder bikes..nx500 can run 150 all day long and same for next day compare to any single cylinder Definitely single cylinder bikes can also touch 150 but difference is how smoothly and effortlessly. And does bike feels same at next day?

It is certainly more powerful than himalayan 450 & adventure 390, dominor 400 but since it is more agile & nimble to ride in city traffic unlike himalayan 450, dominor 400 though all weighs almost the same but the Honda feels light & which makes it different. Since it is a CBU unit so the price is bit on a higher side. Also honda charges significantly high for their premium bikes. It's the japanese engineering & premium ride quality & feel, very good heat management, very good weight distribution, good mileage which makes it worth every penny. Certainly those are my opinions!🙏

Most of the comparison is with this street triple, it’s known that we can’t expect the same from a adv kind of motorcycle which has more weight and long suspension, triple s the lightest weighing bike. I have an interceptor and a kawasaki Z900, so now hunting for a adv kind of motorcycle. If we want to have fun like the street bikes, then ktm adv 390 can meet the expectation but still can’t find the pull like an inline 3 or inline 4. So if we want a relaxed ride and comfortable seat and road clearance , we can switch to an adv kind of bike. For sure, it’s in our mind which has blend with the power of inline 3 and inline 4. So leave the comparison and let’s enjoy the adv bikes which is designed for.

Really enjoyed this interview. I am 80 years old and I ride a Suzuki VStrom 650 XT which I purchased new in April 2018. I have done 56,000 trouble free km on the bike and I love it. HOWEVER, the VStrom is getting a little heavy for me to ground handle and it doesn’t have a low center of gravity. The Honda 500 NX sounds perfect for me from the way you described it, which corresponds with all the other reviews I have watched. I will continue with my VStrom until the Honda 500 NX becomes available in Australia which will be about September this year best guess. I will take your advice and test ride it to see if I bond with it emotionally.

This is not necessarily a discussion on Horse Power alone. For instance, the Versys 650 has more hp but the Duke 390 is more fun. All bikes (despite the size of their engines) will lean either towards the "Fun" side or towards the "Boring" side. The NX500 unfortunately leans towards the boring side. Having said that, what's 'Boring' is relative. Test ride and see for yourself.

I test rode the 500 X 2023 model & faced similar problem after 150 km / hr speed , it had no power to go faster. I was quite sure that this is the bike for my needs as I don’t plan to ride above 150 & my riding style is relaxed & would prefer to ride long distance at 100-120 or slower. I was very surprised to get very strong wind buffeting on my helmet above speed 120 this problem I had not faced on the Honda Hornet 750 & CB650R . The windscreen was the standard one. I am 5 f 11“ & 96 kg . My helmet is proper fitting Schuberth C4 PRO . I WILL TEST RIDE THE NX this year & hopefully that buffeting problem is solved.

This is hitting bang on its head. I have 100% same observation after I test rode it. In one word you can call NX500 as 'Boring', period. Honda has placed it in a void price bracket,. It only solves the exclusivity problem; a condition of mental disorder echoing -"Hey I have something which no one else has". The bike is not substantial enough for a sub 7lakhs rupees and felt like 'just another bike' which I was unable to connect with. Its like the bike was wearing a blanket and I don't know whats happening inside the blanket. The ride comfort is 100% Himalayan 411. But I disagree with the Pillion comfort, my wife complained about it during the test ride although she is a very fit seasoned pillion rider with thousands Ks done on Himalayan. Plus the test ride bike had plenty of vibrations. The front is so light that I was fearing a wheelie with a pillion, no idea how it will do with a top case and panniers. For that matter Honda does not have any bike in its stable to fall in love with, they are all mind over heart. The bikes are durable, but very boring to fall in love with in their respective category, talk about AT, Transalp or the CBs.

@@OpenAdventures Since you have taken out the time to write back to me, I am assuming that my comment bothered you in more than one way. So, Thank you for the response. I did not comment impulsively, I can tell you that much at least. From his profile, I learnt that he has the experience of riding a 200 cc and a Street triple, a person who is very well aware of the range of speeds and most importantly the acceleration of a particular motorcycle (the reason he was selling). Also, a person who was aware of reliability issues from his experience of RE and someone who knew about plastickyness of 390ADV. No motorcycle is perfect, the acceleration is a matter of expectation and it's alright that later this one point didn't work out for him. But I lost him at the comment where he says "the motorcycle was too practical for him". What bothers me are the reasons why people sell their machines. People go ga ga over their purchases but when they are selling, just about everything is wrong .. or in this case surprisingly, the gentleman found "acceleration" not ok. So, like i said, (1) there was a commitment issue despite a great feedback of the bike and (2) "a decision from head and test ride" also didn't make him buy the right bike. So is this the right NX500 review? In my humble opinion, absolutely not. According to me if there is any one single con you can really nitpick in the bike, it is the wrong pricing of this model (even if for logical reason by Honda). But then that is subjective. P.s. I did not dislike the video, or did I? My comment was harsh. Sorry about that.

Felt like Vivek was speaking all the points that i had with my NX. And sounded like most of the points like lazy biker and arrange marriage were taken straight from my review video. Happy that now most people are acknowledging what i said long back, for which i got bashing earlier. Nice podcast BTW. So next is Vstorm 800..😅
