SCL500 Features
DOHC twin-cylinder engine
With a 471cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine, this mid-sized motorcycle strikes an ideal balance of power, torque, and agility.
Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI)
Our PGM-FI system monitors a range of inputs to ensure an optimal fuel mixture, delivering precise throttle response in all riding conditions.
Disc brakes
A large 310mm hydraulic front disc is gripped by a precision-engineered two-piston caliper, providing strong and predictable stopping power. The adjustable front brake lever ensures a perfect fit.
Anti-Lock Braking System
The standard Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) helps you make smoother, more controlled stops in less-than-ideal riding conditions.
Pro-Link® rear suspension
Pro-Link® rear suspension connects to an adjustable spring-preload shock with large-diameter internals to provide nimble handling and a smooth ride.
Steel-tube frame
The main frame, constructed from diamond-shaped steel tubes, offers a robust foundation for the engine with four secure mounts, ensuring a smooth and stable ride.
Multi-spoke cast wheels
Lightweight, multi-spoke cast aluminum wheels are stylish, easy to clean, and improve handling.
Smooth transmission
Our engineers profiled the shift dogs in the transmission to help you get smoother shifts every time. You’ll never see these parts, but you’ll feel their effects.
High-mount exhaust
A unique scrambler-style exhaust, featuring an upswept design and a twin-outlet muffler, looks the part and sounds it, too.
Slipper clutch
The slipper/assist clutch reduces clutch lever effort by 30 percent compared to a traditional system and minimizes rear-wheel hop during aggressive deceleration.
Scrambler styling
This bike nails the scrambler-style look with a high-mount muffler, 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels featuring wide rims, along with a blacked-out engine and frame.
Two-up seat
The seat offers an open, unencumbered riding position, making it ideal for both commuting and adventuring, while still providing space for a passenger.
Accessories
You can equip your new SCL500 with a range of 21 different Honda accessories. These include a rally-style front fender, handguards, a rear carrier, a 12-volt accessory socket, and more.
Digital instrumentation
An easy-to-read LCD screen displays a digital speedometer, tachometer, clock, trip meter, and more. Its small size and modern features are the perfect combination of style and function.
LED lighting
With an unpolished, utilitarian appearance, the LED light and multi-faceted reflector produce ample illumination for enhanced visibility on the road.
