2016 Honda CB500F - Bike Review

Honda’s newest addition continues to keep the bar raised as an injection of adrenaline for the final instalment to the 500cc class motorcycles. 

Adding a shot of street fighter style into the new CB500F is a bold evolution from the previous model.

The famed 471cc DOHC engine and steel diamond-tube frame will remain unchanged but the CB500F has received an aggressive new look in 2016.

Underneath a new stripped-back and muscular stance, the naked Honda encapsulates a host of rider-focused upgrades.

The new CB500F is a motorcycle you can be proud to call your own thanks to a larger 16.7-litre fuel tank, LED lighting and spring preload adjustable front forks.

Adding a new lightweight exhaust and adjustable brake lever, coupled with punchy Honda performance and all round agility make for a sleek new ride.

For those who want to stand out amongst the crowd the CB500F is available in two bold colours; vibrant Lemon Ice Yellow and a classic Matte Gunpowder Black.

The CB500F is LAMS approved, for any experience level with sensible running costs making it a thrilling versatile bike to commute through the week or ride for pleasure on the weekend.
