Pros and Cons in comparison

Kawasaki ER-6n 2012

The engine is hearty and a lot of fun, plus the ER shines with a Japanese meticulous finish and a fighting price.

Solid handling

high quality level

weak brake

Honda CB500X 2014

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!

Sophisticated looks

efficient windscreen

high speeds possible

fuel economy

Combined ABS.

The front single disc is slightly weakened when driving in a sporty manner.
