Honda CB500X Launch Date:

CB500X was first launched in India in March last year as compact twin adventurer bike. In February this year, Honda has updated this bike with some significant add-ons.

Honda CB500X Price:

It is offered only in one variant. The original price during the launch more than year ago was Rs 6.87 lakh (ex-showroom). But, realising that the bike was significantly over-priced, the company decided to cut the price by a massive Rs 1.08 lakh. It is now offered at an ex-showroom price of Rs 5.79 lakh.

Honda CB500X Features:

It's a mid-sized adventure bike, but its overall appearance doesn't justify its premium range. The bike is not for hardcore off-road drive, but for long-distance rides in urban set-up. The semi-fairing bike has a sharp design for the headlight and heighted windscreen. The front wheel is a new aluminium one that's 100 grams lighter than the one used earlier. It has a full-digital instrument cluster with features like odometer, tachometer, speedometer, low fuel indicator, and low oil indicator, among others. A noticeable feature in the bike is Emergency Stop Signal which detects sudden braking and automatically turns on the hazard lights. There is Honda Ignition Security System (HISS) too that automatically negates the starting of the bike via electronic control.

Honda CB500X Performance:

The eight-valve, liquid-cooled, parallel twin-cylinder motor engine is capable in generating 47 bhp of power at 8,500 rpm and 43.2 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. The bike is equipped with slipper clutch system to assist its six-speed manual transmission. There is telescopic suspension in the front and the rear is handled by Honda ProLINK Monoshock. The braking system is dual-channel ABS. The estimated top speed justifies the segment with 185 kmph.

Honda CB500X Capacity:

The bike has good comfort on offer with a sturdy seating. The fuel tank can store 17.7 litres of petrol.

Honda CB500X Rivals:

Kawasaki Versys 650, Benelli TRK 502, and Suzuki V-Strom 650 XT are the main competitors of this 500-cc bike. ...Read More Read Less
