2024 Honda CBR500R Matte Black Metallic

RIGHT SIZED FOR EXCITEMENT
The best sportbikes are light, aerodynamic, and fast handling. All of which describe our CBR500R ABS perfectly. What you have here is a machine designed to embrace the best of sportbike riding, and one that’s a screaming bargain too. Light, nimble, and narrow as only a twin can be, the engine loves to rev and offers tons of torque. The full-coverage bodywork with new aerodynamic updates looks like something right off the racetrack. Anti-lock brakes are a standard feature, and so is some pretty impressive fuel efficiency. This year you’ll enjoy a new Thin Film Transistor (TFT) instrument display that’s bright and easy to read. But in the end, what you’ll love most about this 500cc sport bike is just how much fun it is, especially when the roads get twisty.

Features may include:

PERFORMANCE

• DOHC TWIN-CYLINDER ENGINE
  Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the CBR500R’s engine is one of our best. With good low-end horsepower and torque, the parallel twin offers accessible performance across all rpm ranges. 
   
• PROGRAMMED FUEL INJECTION (PGM-FI)
  PGM-FI continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the existing riding and atmospheric conditions, ensuring a crisp throttle response throughout a wide variety of riding. Programed fuel injectors increase power and torque in the midrange. 
   
• STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST
  With a dual-outlet muffler that you need to hear for yourself, this beautifully polished stainless-steel exhaust is integrated with the rear footpeg set for clean, functional design. The exhaust tucks in tight for better mass centralization (and consequently better handling). 

STYLE

• SUPERSPORT STYLING
  The CBR500R’s aggressive styling comes with a sharp new color scheme that keeps it right at the front of the pack in terms of eye-appeal. The aerodynamic bodywork also provides significant advantages in air management for added rider comfort, along with a low drag coefficient and effective cooling. 

ENGINEERING

• ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS)
  Standard equipment on every 2024 CBR500R, anti-lock brakes (ABS) help you make confident stops under less-than-ideal conditions. 
   
• DIGITAL INSTRUMENTATION
  An LCD screen features a digital speedometer and tachometer and more, including a clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters, and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators. 

• DISC BRAKES
  The CBR500R features twin front disc brakes so you get strong, predictable stopping power. The front-brake lever is also adjustable for a perfect fit. 
   
• LED HEADLIGHTS
  The CBR500R sports a pair of powerful LED headlights. They’re small and light, throw out an amazing amount of illumination, and feature a stylish shape. The design also increases the engine’s intake airflow. 
   
• 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. 
   
• SMOOTHER TRANSMISSION
  Our engineers profiled the shift dogs in the transmission to help you get smoother shifts every time.
   
• LIGHT SWINGARM CONSTRUCTION
  The CBR500R uses a swingarm that’s over two pounds lighter than the previous design, but is just as strong. It’s one of the reasons the entire Honda 500 family

HANDLING

• STEEL-TUBE FRAME
  A motorcycle’s frame is the basis for its handling. The CBR500R’s diamond-shaped steel-tube mainframe connects to the engine with four mounts, offering a rock-solid foundation for a superior ride and handling. 
   
• UPSIDE-DOWN FORK
  The CBR500R features an inverted-fork design that makes the front end much more rigid, for more precise steering input and feedback. The fork itself is a Showa Separate Function Fork--Big Piston (SFF-BP) design—one of the best in its class. 
   
• CAST WHEELS
  Strong and stylish, the CBR500R’s aluminum wheels feature a five-spoke design. The light wheels improve handling and lessen wheel inertia too. 
   
• PRO-LINK® REAR SUSPENSION
  The CBR500R features special shock settings for improved ride comfort. Its sophisticated chassis uses Honda Pro-Link® rear suspension to increase riding comfort and handling. 

COMFORT

• STEP SEAT
  The CBR500R offers a stepped two-piece seat with a low height. Perfect for around-town riding or winding roads, it also offers room for a passenger and is specially designed to fit a wide range of riders.
