All in all, the new CBR500R is guaranteed to be a suitable entry into the world of the stooped. The look is to die for and appears sporty and aggressive, but the riding itself is child's play. The wind protection is great, the seating position still relatively relaxed. So there's nothing to stop you from being completely happy with this economical sports bike (a little over 4L/100km fuel consumption), both in the corner and on the way to work or university. It will be hard to find another motorbike that is as easy to ride and looks so sporty at the same time!

Effortless handling

High-revving engine

Great wind protection

Relaxed seating position

Great LCD display with all info

Brake needs a lot of force on the lever

Are there so many people who don't need 100 hp to stabilise their ego? I think with previous single-cylinder models, it was always the design that was the problem, not the lack of power. The Duke manages to look really high-quality even as a small single-cylinder.

Stable frame

relatively low overall weight

good chassis

high-quality components

strong braking system

handling.

Significantly weaker single-cylinder engine

somewhat less comfort

somewhat less power.
