2024 Honda® CB500F
STREET SAVVY
Life’s complicated enough these days—which is precisely why a motorcycle like our CB500F is just so right. Here’s a machine that’s very attraction is in its simplicity, purity, and authenticity. It’s light, affordable, narrow, and features naked-motorcycle/streetfighter bodywork (updated this year for an even cleaner look). Its light weight and wide powerband make it a great choice as a first bike, but its famous Honda durability and engineering mean you can ride it for years to come. A new Thin Film Transistor (TFT) instrument display keeps you informed, and the 41mm Showa upside-down SFF-BP fork, dual-disc front brake, radial-mount four-piston calipers, and standard anti-lock brakes (ABS) are nice premium touches.
Features may include:
PERFORMANCE
- DOHC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE
Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the CB500F’s engine is one of our best. With plenty of low-end horsepower and torque, this parallel twin offers accessible performance across a wide rpm range.
HANDLING
- ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
Standard equipment on every 2024 CB500F, helping you make smoother, more controlled stops under less-than-ideal conditions.
ENGINEERING
- SLIPPER ASSIST CLUTCH
The slipper/assist clutch lets us lighten up the clutch-lever effort by 45 percent compared to previous systems, but automatically locks up tight when you release it.
COMFORT
- STEP SEAT
The CB500F offers a step seat with a low height. Perfect for around-town riding or out in the canyons, it also offers?room for a passenger and is specially designed to fit a wide range of riders.
