True supersport looks for everyday use. Despite its aggressive and credible styling, the CBR500R's everyday package is a delight. Low fuel consumption and a comfortable riding position make it a feel-good companion that has been significantly upgraded for 2022. The chassis and brakes now match the CBR's aspirations, and with the right accessories it shows its all-round qualities. Only the shock absorber leaves room for improvement when the going gets sporty.
