Pros and Cons in comparison

Honda CB500X 2016

Good wind protection, a comfortable, somewhat higher seating position and a relatively comfortable chassis make the CB500X look good even on long journeys. The extra price compared to the naked CB500F is therefore justified and well invested - especially as the CB500X remains unbeatably affordable!
