Your Sport. Your Bike.
Sportbikes don't have to cost five figures. At least not when you're talking about a 2023 Honda CBR500R. Its twin-cylinder engine revs freely and produces plenty of torque, and it lets us keep the bike narrow and nimble too. The full-coverage bodywork looks like something right off the racetrack, and the suspension is top notch. Anti-lock brakes are standard, and so is some pretty impressive fuel efficiency. Best of all, the CBR500R is just plain fun to ride, whether you're using it around town or carving up the canyons on the weekends.
Performance Features
- DOHC Twin-Cylinder Engine: Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the CBR500R's engine is one of our best. With good low-end horsepower and torque, the parallel twin offers accessible performance across a wide RPM range.
- Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI): PGM-FI continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the existing riding and atmospheric conditions, ensuring a crisp throttle response throughout a wide variety of riding. Programed fuel injectors increase power and torque in the midrange.
- Stainless Steel Exhaust: With a dual-outlet muffler that you need to hear for yourself, this beautifully polished stainless-steel exhaust is integrated with the rear footpeg set for clean, functional design. The exhaust tucks in tight for better mass centralization (and consequently better handling).
Style Features
- Supersport Styling: The CBR500R's aggressive styling comes with two great color options (Grand Prix Red and Sword Silver Metallic), that keep it right at the front of the pack in terms of eye-appeal. The aerodynamic bodywork also provides significant advantages in air management for added rider comfort, along with a low drag coefficient and effective cooling.
Engineering Features
- Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS): Standard equipment on every 2023 CBR500R, anti-lock brakes (ABS) help you make confident stops under less-than-ideal conditions.
- Digital Instrumentation: An LCD screen features a digital speedometer and tachometer and more, including a clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters, and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators.
- Disc Brakes: The CBR500R features twin front disc brakes so you get strong, predictable stopping power. The front-brake lever is also adjustable for a perfect fit.
- LED Headlights: The CBR500R sports a pair of powerful LED headlights. They're small and light, throw out an amazing amount of illumination, and feature a stylish shape. The design also increases the engine's intake airflow.
- Slipper/Assist Clutch: The slipper/assist clutch lets us lighten up the clutch-lever effort by 45 percent compared to previous systems, but automatically locks up tight when you release it.
- Smoother Transmission: Our engineers profiled the shift dogs in the transmission to help you get smoother shifts every time. You'll never see these parts, but you'll feel their effects.
- Light Swingarm Construction: The CBR500R uses a swingarm that's over two pounds lighter than the previous design, but is just as strong. It's one of the reasons the entire Honda 500 family handles so well.
Handling Features
- Steel-Tube Frame: A motorcycle's frame is the basis for its handling. The CBR500R's diamond-shaped steel-tube mainframe connects to the engine with four mounts, offering a rock-solid foundation for a superior ride and handling.
- Upside-Down Fork: The CBR500R features an inverted-fork design that makes the front end much more rigid, for more precise steering input and feedback. The fork itself is a Showa Separate Function Fork--Big Piston (SFF-BP) design—one of the best in its class.
- Cast Wheels: Strong and stylish, the CBR500R's aluminum wheels feature a five-spoke design. The light wheels improve handling and lessen wheel inertia too.
- Pro-Link® Rear Suspension: The CBR500R features special shock settings for improved ride comfort. Its sophisticated chassis uses Honda Pro-Link® rear suspension to increase riding comfort and handling.
Comfort Features
- Step Seat: The CBR500R offers a stepped two-piece seat with a low height. Perfect for around-town riding or winding roads, it also offers room for a passenger and is specially designed to fit a wide range of riders.
