“a sweet ride, after a 15 year break from riding the CB500s gives me everything I want .
Being a 500cc you need to push it along a bit, but that's part of the fun. It's solid and dependable, so far, only 4 months in.
Getting more and more out it on twisty Devon roads, and it's sweet as you like through traffic. Reviews said it's confidence inspiring and I can't argue with that.
Did I say it looks beautiful in it's 90's yellow livery?”
“Its very good for a small, 13-year old bike. Fuel consumption is around 55mpg,
speed is more than adequate for holding 70mph against a strongish wind and road tax and insurance are low. A very sensible bike, favoured by bike instructors and couriers. A very good club with plenty of friendly advice is at: http://www.cb500club.net”
“Riding two up, pootling to the shops, or a thrash round country lanes, this bike does it all. Value for money. Bullet proof engine. Great handling. A race series for these bikes proved how good they are. Just a shame they are not made now. I would bye a new one without hesitation. The perfect package.”
