DOHC twin-cylinder engine

The 471cc parallel-twin engine features a dual-overhead-cam design, delivering accessible performance across the rpm range with strong low-end torque and high-rpm horsepower.

Stainless steel exhaust

Polished and stainless steel, the exhaust seamlessly integrates with the rear footpeg mount, optimizing mass centralization and elevating the handling. This is what we call functional aesthetics.

Programmed fuel injection

The PGM-FI system adjusts fuel levels based on parameters such as temperature, elevation, throttle position, and riding style to improve response and increase power and torque across the entire rev range.

Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS)

Our Anti-Lock Braking System comes standard, providing assured stopping power and added confidence in challenging conditions, such as wet roads or loose gravel.

Disc brakes

Twin 296mm front discs with four-piston radial-mount calipers offer strong, predictable stopping power. The front brake lever is adjustable for a perfect fit.

Showa Big Piston fork

The 41mm inverted Showa® Separate Function Fork—Big Piston (SFF-BP) front end enhances the bike's rigidity and provides more precise steering input and feedback.

Pro-Link® rear suspension

Our Pro-Link® rear suspension features a nine-stage adjustable preload shock and 4.7 inches of travel, providing ample comfort and agile handling.

Steel-tube frame

The diamond-shaped steel-tube mainframe is seamlessly connected to the engine through four mounts and provides a rock-solid foundation for an unrivaled ride and handling experience.

Lightweight swingarm

The swingarm, used in the entire Honda 500 lineup, is both lightweight and strong, contributing to the bike’s exceptional handling.

Cast wheels

Lightweight, multi-spoke cast aluminum wheels are designed to improve handling and accommodate various sticky street tires. Plus, they are easy to clean and simply look good.

Slipper clutch

Born from Honda's racing pedigree, the slipper/assist clutch reduces clutch lever effort by 45 percent compared to previous systems and automatically locks up tight upon release, reducing rear-wheel hop under hard deceleration.

Smooth transmission

Our engineers profiled the shift dogs in the six-speed transmission to help you change gears with reduced effort every time. While you’ll likely never see these parts, their impact on your riding experience is unmistakable.

Supersport styling

The sleek fairing design extends beyond aesthetics, enhancing air management to maximize rider comfort, promote optimal cooling, and improve aerodynamic efficiency.

Dual-level seating

A two-piece seat with a dual-level design accommodates riders and passengers of various sizes, making it perfect for both urban streets and winding roads.

Accessories

Make your new CBR500R even more yours with a total of 6 different Honda accessories, including a tank pad and bag, heated grips, and a 12-volt accessory socket.

Large TFT display

A large Thin-Film Transistor (TFT) instrument display is bright and easy to read, featuring a digital speedometer, tachometer, odometer, and more.

LED headlights

Compact, stylish LED headlights enable optimal engine intake placement, enhancing airflow and generating additional horsepower without compromising illumination.
