- How fast can the Honda CBR500R go? We find out, kinda. Today was just too beautiful of a day. I was out riding for hours. However, I had a need for speed today. So I did a few highway pulls/top speed runs, to see how fast does the Honda CBR500R go. Also cover my thoughts after riding this bike for a year now - how comfortable is the CBR, how much toque does the CBR have, do I wanna upgrade to something different, all that good stuff.
The bike is the 2019 Honda CBR500R. I've put thousands of miles on it during the course of the past year. I've gotten a full & thorough feel of this bike and even after a year, I still love it. My CBR500R is fun, it's fast. We reached top speed of about 111MPH in this video on the CBR500R. Which, for a beginner street bike - nothing to complain about but also nothing to write home about. It's just perfect. - บันเทิง

Very good video of this bike, sound and the road and overall one of the great videos to feel the bike actually ride
Thanks glad you liked it!
Sounds and runs perfectly❤
I have this Bike, as a second/third Bike. This Bike is awesome. I use it around the City. I did Improve its Torque and handling vs the Stock version, by going -1 front sprocket (Vortex Sprocket and Chain Kit) also removing some weight off of it. Removed (Stock Exhaust, Back Fender, stock mirrors etc) Put on some Pirelli Rosso Tires. It really changed a lot. Handles way better and faster off the line. Driving around the city unless you want to get arrested, I don't attempt to go over 100MPH
Just bought a 2017 as my first bike!
Heck yeah man, congratulations! Keep me updated as you ride how your liking it or not
I’m looking into buying one of these as a daily commute. It’s nice to get an honest opinion on this bike, most channels say they are doing a review of this bike but then all they do is talk about what they need to change on the bike, I mean just review the bike, I don’t a comparison, I’ve I was looking for a bigger bike then I would, I just want an opinion on the bike. I use to ride and I’m just getting back into riding again, this is one of the bikes I’m thinking about getting. I just want a great bike and not one that goes 190!
Hey man glad ya liked it & yeah absolutely a wonderful bike, and as a daily commuter, it nails it there! But I agree most bike review videos are pretty annoying haha
Daily commuter is the true calling of this bike despite the sporty looks. Some might suggest the cb500x but I like a little forward lean personally. (And the looks of the CBR by a country mile.) Put a top case on mine and do most errands/commuting on it as long as its not raining. 8000 mile oil change interval, 16000 mile valve check, legit 60mpg average, Honda reliability in addition to the under-stressed nature of it's low compression motor. Bikes don't get much easier to own and run.
Another thought. Any bike bigger/faster than this is going to cost more in a dozen different ways without offering much more functionality in the role of a commuter. Some say the glass is half full, some say it is half empty, the engineer says, "The glass is twice as big as it needs to be." And that's what this bike is - the exact right amount of bike for the job of transportation. (unless you never ride freeway, then you could go even smaller)
@@kleinbottled79 all very well said!! That’s a great way of putting it
@@kleinbottled79 exactly right
Seen 115mph on my 2016 also (closed course; professional rider) Speedo is just over 4% optimistic so we are probably looking at real world 110. Funnily this is just about exactly the same as my ninja 300 was capable of - 300 had a full system though. I think the larger frontal area of the 500 plays in heavily as well. Love mine, great daily commuter/light sport tourer.
Oh wow nice!
Same I got my 2015 up to 115mph as well it was a good commuter beginner bike
Nice video man, the cbr500r is a beauty, I've got a red one of my own
I couldn't help but see you're wearing just a T-shirt, here in Australia we live by all the gear all the time, save your skin bro and go buy yourself a jacket to protect your skin ✌️
Ride safe man
Thanks man, yeah it is a beauty! And I absolutely agree with you, I do plan on getting proper gear very soon. Thanks, and ride safe as well!
Man ,I know exactly how you feel. I was on a motorway,in Germany, doing 136mph round a corner and I thought I'd really like to be doing a little more but that was the bike I was on going flat out , so you don't owe that bike anything ,sell it and get the performance you need, coz that's what I did. But there are plenty 600cc inline 4's with the performance you want, and something like a BMW F800 ST (cheap bike,shop around) comes with hard luggage and more touring sport ergomics. Actually it has adjustable seat,pegs and handlebar so you can suss your own preference.😂😂👍
Could you give us a tour of your helmet/microphone/camera setup? Also does your bike have an exhaust? I have a 2022 cbr500 and love it!
Yeah man, I'll try to put that one together for ya! And yeah I have a Coffman's Shorty exhaust on it, with the baffle out & oh wow awesome! Yeah the CBR500 is awesome man, ride safe and I'll try to get that video together for ya
@@IamLation hi thank you for the wonderful videos. I wanted to ask , if I remove the Coffman's baffle does the bike sound even more beautiful?
You’re welcome! And yeah the way you hear my bike in the video is with the baffle removed from the Coffmans
I’ve got one, awesome bike
Ayy nice man! Yeah it really is an awesome bike - ride safe bro
I love that bike too . But I've been looking at the ninja 400 as well. I'm at a toss up
The weight was my issue with the Ninja 400. But it’s all personal preference, if you like being blown into oncoming traffic lanes at the slightest gust of wind, the bike is perfect for ya!
Na I’m kidding, not really, maybe, but yeah - just gotta identify what is important for you and focus on that to make the decision. It’s tough!
I want it!!! ❤
Excellent for everyday use..250 struggle to go over 90 .600 needs constant high revving.litre bike got too much horse for the job at hand except on track.
Absolutely
“ I got a sport for ya, riding bikes”😂😂
😂
What i'm worried about with getting a motorcycle is getting a speeding ticket. Do motorcycles get a special exception when it comes to speeding past the speed limit?
I just view speeding tickets as a way to pay for some extra fun.
Sht if you get a 600+ plus then yes. Just add throttle when u see lights, they'll eventually stop if you do it right.
Don’t know about in the US but in the UK doesn’t matter what vehicle you’re in speeding is speeding😂 But being 100% honest bikes are just beyond easy to speed on. Soon as you get on a highway even on a 500cc bike you can 100mph and be like “oh shit already?”
nice bike 😳😳
Fueyyyyyy
What are the legal speed's in your state on the freeways?.
Here in Australia it's 100-110km/h ....60 - 65 miles an hour.
As long as the bike can comfortably do about 70mph its tottaly fine for Australian highways unless someone wants to race
That's exactly the same here, 60-65 miles an hour. And yeah it does 70 comfortably :)
@@IamLation thanks for replying......in every highway run video I see from people in the states they talk about a bikes ability to do anywhere from 80-120mph.....I take it their are plenty who speed in the USA??
@@aussiesoldier0177 at least in New Jersey yeah the roadways might as well be race tracks 😂
180+ @@aussiesoldier0177
Sir just want to ask if you got a full system or a slip on?
Just a slip on, the Coffmans Shorty Exhaust
Stock sprockets? Thinking of going up in the front
Yeah stock
what exhaust you got on that boi
That is the Coffmans Shorty
How big are you? I'm learning now that I'm gonna be limited with getting my first bike because I'm 6'2 260 pounds and now I'm more worried about what bike I get
Yeah I’m probably like 5’10 and 150, so that’s a good point. I mean I ride with my wife oftentimes and it’s not terrible, I can still zip around pretty good but there is certainly a noticeable difference
@Lation you think adjusting the suspension would help with that a lot? I mainly don't want to stress the bike out when I'm going on long rides or my 30 minute ride to work
I’m sure that would help, I don’t know enough about the suspension to give sound advice here - all I can give is just my experience riding with a passenger which does impact the performances and considering it’s a heavy bike already, it’s no help. Hahaha
Hey man, im 6’1” was 250 at my heaviest and the bike works great for me, still had plenty of power. The frame is pretty big so you wont feel too big for the bike. The ONLY part of the bike that feels “small” is the inseam a bit, but that just means that you can flat foot both feet. I would not shy away from getting this bike at your size, you will have no issues. Unlike a ninja which would feel extremely small
@Tommy Carrera thanks dude now it's a toss up between this and a honda cb650r lol
How many mpg you're getting in a normal use?
I’m averaging anywhere from 63 to 70MPG depending on how I’m riding it.
I'm getting 66.8 mpg with the 2022 version
I think you should just buy an old ZX6R around $1600-2000 as a second bike. Hell , even get an old '98 ZX9R as cheap as possible. Or just Test Ride bigger bikes , tell the dealership you're thinking of upgrading an you'd like to Test Ride their 2021 Ducati Panigale V4S ! Try a CBR400RR it's a different bike altogether. I would chose an inline 4 engine before anything but I'm not adversed to Twins, I've owned Kawa's ER5, Aprilia's SL750 but like you they lacked IS Speed. Have a look at CBR650 it might just have enough performance for you. Best of Luck, thanks for posting.
Drop a couple teeth on rear sprocket for bit more top speed for highways😊
i like this idea
I just see your pretty laid back there with T-shirt bare arms, have your cosidered an HD FXDS , surely you can get an old Sportster cheap in your neck of the woods...🤔
i should get some gear, solid advice
Sounds like your ready for a 650R
Yeah I’d love to upgrade, but in no particular rush cause I love this bike still. So, we’ll see! Maybe I’ll upgrade before next summer or something
Going 15mph over in front of the cops. Knowing my nanny ass state would've been pulled over and cited 💀
LOL
I was told that Honda will not put their high power feeling of the Fireblade on that 500 even if it looks like a mini Fireblade it lacks the power,,,,,, the Kawasaki naked z400 would be a better choice,,,,,,,, in other words buy a Fireblade.....😮
i like this logic
