New honda NX500 | Review | First impression

[@DeanArnold1066]

Picked my NX500 up today. Put 100 miles on it. Fantastic bike. I’m 6’2 and it feels perfect. Less than £20 to fill her up. Loads of power, torque and sounds great.

[@Mrfish2015]

Great to hear! You’ll,have many good miles on it I’m sure

[@chrismorgan7678]

Hey Dean, I'm 6'1 and found the CB500x a little cramped. Are you implying the ergonomics are different from the CB? I hope so. Thanks, Chris

[@DeanArnold1066]

@@chrismorgan7678hi Chris, I’ve never sat on a CB500x. The bike feels perfect for me. I’m 6’2 and around 19 stone. I feel very comfortable on it and lots of room all over. The seat is 830 in height the same as the CB500. Go and sit on one and see what you think. 👍

[@Rhodi88]

Getting mine in the next few weeks. Can't wait! How is it?

[@DeanArnold1066]

Bloody brilliant. Done 300 miles now and the bike is feeling much better. I’m a new rider and growing in confidence.

[@arijitchief]

this is actually the first review of the NX500 all over the world...there are some half-baked visuals from South East Asia, but this is the first proper review of the bike...

Good for you being the first to review! Kind of surprised they didn’t give it to magazines first. But again, now Honda’s supporting actual customers and not fleet salesmen. 🥂

[@Mrfish2015]

The magazines get the expenses paid sunny launches , they can’t have it all ha ha

[@DeanArnold1066]

I’ve had my NX for a week. Only been on it 3 times due to the rain, wind and work. Rides like a dream. Engine sounds really nice and got a good rumble to it. Still breaking her in but I’m very happy with it. I’m 6ft 2 and 19 stone. Fits me perfectly and lots and lots of torque.

[@ighost2605]

What color is yours ?

[@DeanArnold1066]

Black

[@Mrfish2015]

Nice one mate

[@rocketrollsvlogs7625]

Mr. Fish, you provide the absolute best bike reviews. You stick to the stuff we really want to know. I also appreciate the fact you acknowledge that some features you show are new to you, and when someone owns a bike they will learn their bike and it will all be second nature. Finally, you took the bike on a little, worn and torn country road and that is exactly where this bike belongs. Thanks yet again from another former CB500X owner.

[@Mrfish2015]

No worries , thanks for the kind words 🙌

[@Robsventures]

Well done on getting in there first for such a major bike for the UK, great it’s gone to a “normal “ real life reviewer and not c large scale corporate machine platform. Looks a great bike , great real world review thank you 👍👍

Much appreciated! I don’t do corporate anything 😂

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks for the kind words … appreciate it 👊

[@billyb6043]

all the reviews for the outgoing 22' CB 500 X model will be relevant. Aside from the cosmetic changes, I think it's essentially the same bike geometry/handling-wise. Wheels are marginally lighter, the fuelling should be the same...Should be a nice bike for the money!

[@Vikrum_]

It looks beautiful, purposeful and solid, compact, dense. Oof I'm losing it❤

[@wayneh8767]

First review good to see, is that TFT screen finally! Black looks better on the screen. Wow backlit control on the handlebar bonus! I see they re arranged the horn button location thats better. Good ride!

[@easyfromtnbtw3555]

I’m in the US I went for the Transalp and I really like it. It’s one of the most comfortable bikes I’ve ever ridden

[@Mrfish2015]

I like the transalp a lot

[@DeanArnold1066]

I’ve been looking for reviews on this bike for a long time and this is the first English review out there. I passed my MOD2 in December and I’m picking up my new black NX 500 next Saturday. Can’t wait but I little nervous. New bike, new tyres, new breaks and me a new rider plus it’s going to be wet. I’ve ordered. The bike with the comfort pack. 3litre tank bag, 12v plug, heated grips, wind deflectors, knuckle guards and main stand. I’ve got a few questions: What’s the best way breaking in this engine. Best way breaking in new tyres especially in the wet. Can’t wait to finally pick it up. Thanks for the review.

[@Mrfish2015]

Congratulations… the dealer will tell you the run in process when you pick it up , as for the tyres just take it easy for 100 ish miles not too aggressive on the throttle ..

[@lastsonofkrypton36]

I have a 2013 CB500X and it looks just like this thing. It's kind of unbelievable how similar the body panels have remained.

I have to agree with your Mr F. The honours go to you as I believe this is the first UK test of this bike. I’m quite interested in this puppy and have been waiting for it to arrive in Britain for review. As usual yet another excellent road test that has made up my mind to book a demo up here in Yorkshire. Keep up the great work.

[@GraemeChapman-d6z]

I really like this bike and will be buying the white colour one when it eventually arrives in Australia sometime this year.😊 Really helpful review. 😊

[@alrhodes5011]

I'm moving to Aus later this year from the UK and planning on getting one of these as my mode of transport. What are you using yours for? Would you think it would be good for the back roads in Oz, as it is, or would you rally raid it?

[@martinlowe9305]

I was sitting on and looking over this bike when you came to pick it up in the showroom. So it is interesting to hear your view on it. I use to ride a Dominator in the 90s which I loved and I've been looking for something with a similar vibe as I am returning to biking. As a fairly straightforward and simple but fun bike I think this would be spot on. Thanks for the review 👍

[@Mrfish2015]

Nice to meet you mate lol … it’s not a 650 single s won’t be the same … test ride it though

[@christianweller4288]

Useful review, slightly disappointed that CarPlay is not fully implemented. Clearly an improvement on an an already awesome platform.

[@Mrfish2015]

That would bump up the price

[@thetubelesschannel]

Nice intro to the bike. Yeah the 12V output should be standard, but I actually would prefer an USB outlet there. The tail light has now a red glass, previous transparent/white glass. Otherwise it looks quite similar. I like the new front fairing, the windshield is a bit different(larger also?), hopefully it gives more protection. I loved the previous TFT (many didn't) but the new seems to be OK, nice that it's possible to get info from your phone like weather and nav. The bike has now traction control.....hardly needed on such a small engine...but I its there 🙂 For most other parts the bike looks unchanged. A great bike 🙂 Congrats, you are the first (as i know) to get out some impressions, when the 2019 came I was the lucky one 😀

[@Mrfish2015]

I think the traction is mainly for Europe as they have cobbles that can be slippery in place

[@carsQhere]

Dunno why the changed the name, it's a CB500X with some nice updates, and the CB500X name tells you everyting you need to know about the rest of the bike. NX name doesn't fit but that's marketing for you I suppose. Still, nice to see it on the sort of roads it's best at in the sort of weather it'll be used in 👍

[@Jimo368]

I was wondering the same thing and thinking maybe there are more NX models coming

[@Mrfish2015]

I don’t know why either 🤷‍♂️

Old version was good! This one a lot more beefy at front looks good reminds me abit like the Norden 901? Good video 👍

[@CuriousGoose]

I'd like to see your opinion of the new Himmy 452 in comparison to this. The real question is if you could only have one bike (on and off-road) which would you pick, if the NX wasn't a Honda, so just on the bike alone?

[@Mrfish2015]

I would like to hear my opinion on it too lol … if Enfield want to lend me one

[@jacobwilliams1285]

I will second that, would like to hear your comparison to this NX500 as for me they are potential buys and competitors

[@adam346]

I sooo wanted a cb500x as my first bike... I now want this as my second bike 🤓

[@Thirsty_Fox]

These bikes are such gems. Absolutely love my '22 500X and this looks like a nice style and electronics update. I did put Trailmax Raids on this past summer and while they stick great, they take some of the zest out of the on-road experience. Definitely slower and less nimber, louder. I might try to change back to the OEMs but I wanted to try off-road. Cheers from Canada

[@FourIntoOne]

Yep thats much better looking than the outgoing CB500x. Shame the new Transalp looks more like the outgoing x - would be better if modeled after this one lol. I had an earlier version of the CB500x and whilst it did everything i asked of it, it wasn't the most exciting bike - another 10-20 hp and a 270 degreee crank and it (and this) would be a stormer no mistake!

[@frankensteinsgarage9632]

I have thought the same. If it was, there would be no question for me. The size of the bike works for me and the look isn't too bad.

[@karoslif9818]

I actually thought the previous front end looked better.

[@StarskyQC]

I have a 2020 CB500X (post 19 inch front wheel and LED headlight, but pre twin discs at the front) and can testify to that being a great bike. The NX500 looks to have some styling differences but are they enough for me to think that I need to upgrade? Nope. Granted I do like the look of that new instrument panel. Honda have made the mistake of making a bike that is too good - at over 70mpg too it even beats off the temptation of bigger bikes. In answer to your question though, yes, the rear light is a different style to the past model.

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks for the feedback, I thought it was bait wasn’t sure

[@ripmax333]

Always loved the first CB500x, decent seat height for us common mortals, capable off-road although not in the hardest stuff, but with the right tires It can get you to many places.

[@benlisle7623]

My dad had a dominator many years back, he took me to school on for a few years.

[@Mrfish2015]

Nice

[@NGTyurru]

Going to pop onto the Honda dealership to enquire about this tomorrow, then you uploaded a video on it!

[@billyb6043]

Honda would have to try pretty hard to F*** up the CB 500 X. In some ways I was disappointed when they finally revealed the NX as many were hoping it would be a more off-road capable variant of the X, with more clearance, tubeless spoked rims and increased travel. As things stand, if owners wanted to do more involved off roading they'd have to carry out the same modifications as they do on the outgoing model. Shame Honda didn't follow the same route as Suzuki with their two versions of the same DE platform. That said, the CB is a great bike (I've owned and loved mine since 2016!) and I imagine this latest iteration will be just as much fun to own and ride. Props for the first UK road test Mr. Fish!

[@Mrfish2015]

I guess they figured most will only use it on they road , plus probably don’t want to take sales away from the new transalp

[@jorgen.6395]

[@caryfielder3796]

I speak using my hands a lot too Mr Fish. Drivers looking at you via their rear view mirror must think you're mad at them 🤣. Great vid mate and thanks for sharing. I was seriously close to ordering the CB500X but saw this at the show in Birmingham, Nov last year and was told it was replacing it. Looks very similar but needs the extras to get it bang on (imo)

[@Mrfish2015]

They have a mind of their own 😂

[@Burden82]

got mine 2 days ago. it has plenty of power but it need little bit more low end torgue. when you are going and you crank the gas it moves but you slow down to the turn and the star to accelerate from 30km/h with 3rd gear and it starts to jerk. more torgue and it would not struggle with that kind of situations. the kick stand is bad because the little stick you kick it down is too close to the left foot peg. and the egnition is way down in the front so i have to hop of the bike to take of the key. windshield should be way bigger and it doesnt have fuel range

[@nikos-giorgos]

When I first saw the nx500 logo I was ready to get my wallet out and count my money. Then I looked a little closer only to find out that this is a rebadged cb500x and not a single cylinder bike.Can't say I wasn't disappointed although I believe this is a good improvement over the 2023 model.

[@Mrfish2015]

Yeah a strange change of name for this one

[@malcolmpatton9314]

Love my cb500x 2019 was considering the 2023 with improved brakes and front end little did I know they were going to do this much improved. Good review thanks. Just don’t know if I am done with this type of bike need to test more bikes before I consider new purchase. The wife is considering a triumph tiger so don’t think I can keep up on a gravel track on a retro type bike. But I good would it be to not have crash bars,hand guards,sump guard and all that expensive protection.

[@robertroyds1332]

Serious question. Can you put a skid plate on this bike at all? The engine is a stressed member. It has no frame, and therefore no frame to engine motor mounts. Skid plates generally mount under and to the bike frame rails, and crash bars use the frame to engine motor mounts as an anchor attachment point. This motor has no frame rails or motor mounts. How would a skid plate or crash bars mount? I think the engine would have to be designed to provide attachment anchor points for these, or else I don't see how.

people say it sounds like a sewing machine, but I am so old, to me it sounds a lot like George Jetsons Flying car. (or is that supposed to be Jorge Jetson), One reason I bought it, is simple it was in stock.@@leeinwis

Great video...Does it have a centre stand as well as a side stand please?

[@Mrfish2015]

Only as an option not as standard

[@robertocojones4471]

The reviews I read on the CB500X said that the engine tended to get buzzy in the higher rev range. Was that your experience with the NX? How off road capable could it be with the the modifications you mentioned (new tires, riser bars, crash bars, etc.)?

[@Mrfish2015]

It’s still a bit buzzy but not a deal breaker , off road will be limited by ground clearance etc , mild off road should be fine with the mods

awesome video mate!

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks a lot!

Great review sir! Hi from Ireland.

[@Mrfish2015]

Hey, thanks!

The Dommy/Tenere style square'ish front fairing & screen looks promising... and then you look down & see the weedy forks, cast wheels & the boring CB500X silhouette. As a commuter? - Excellent. As an adventure bike? - No chance!

Nice to see this first review. I have a CBR500R and it's great for riding back roads but it's painfully obvious every time I get on that this class of bike needs 60 HP. This 47 HP BS is getting old.

Can you completely turn off the rear ABS without removing a fuse or unplugging a connector? Thanks

[@Mrfish2015]

I don’t think you can

[@SB-fe4gt]

Thanks

The previous years had adjustable windscreen, I guess they traded it for the updated dash screen.

[@Mrfish2015]

Not a lot of people knew or bothered to do that .. an adjustment on the fly would be nice

[@drady8541]

Good review. Thank you 😊

[@awoods3554]

Nice looking bike. Gold spoke wheels would be my first upgrade.

[@darrylcoomer1539]

Good review and very nice changes!! The roads you ride are awesome, any chance you could share the route you took with road numbers? Please include the green lane if you can!!

[@Mrfish2015]

All around boxhill surrey and the lanes are in coldharbour in the surrey hills
