what bag are you using looks dope
Hi Manco, this bag was made by 511 Tactical products. But it has been discontinued and is no longer available. If you're looking for a back pack, may we suggest checking out some options here: www.ridersdomain.com/motorcycle-riding-gear/backpacks
The review I've been looking for. None of the others really cover as much as this one; super persuasive and upfront.
About to grab one of these as my first ever bike! Your vid is getting me super pumped!!
I love how honda made this bike with zero to no parts! The personalization to these bikes will be like the new grom for honda! I already seen a custom one and the guy said it only took him a few hours. Since the parts on these bikes are so easy to take off you can make of modify the parts on it!
Heck ya - did you get all of your riding gear dialed in yet?
That's exactly the theory Honda was going for. Thanks for pointing that out so accurately.
Almost. As a newbie it's been super tough to decide. So many options. And it can get expensive fast. Been a zombie in front of my computer checking out gear reviews for hours and hours. Then I watch them all again. And again!
Yeah, it's a good time to be a shopper - no shortage of options. Thing is, you don't need to plop down a bunch of money to get the good stuff. If you want some recommendations feel free to ask and good luck.
Thank you thank you thank you 🙏🏽I’ve know decided to get one. Truly appreciate the review.
Adam, great job making your review appropriate for the bike and it's intended audience!
Hi - thanks for the note - glad you enjoyed it.
i think its also for middle aged bikers returning after a long break (marriage/kids)
Fair point. The Rebel is a good way to get back into riding without a whole lot of cost!
Yeah, great review! We got to see some streets and the backend of a lot of cars! How exciting, just what I wanted to see during a bike review. Can you ride past some cows and chickens during your next review? That'll really help to determine if I want to buy the bike or not.
Great review, Adam! I'm a fan of this new Rebel, I think Honda nailed it.
It's a neat bike - we also appreciate how easily it can be customized. Honda engineered that aspect well.
( I’m coming to this review 5 years later on purpose as I’m looking to buy a second hand rebel 500) I’m over in the U.K. and just returning to biking after 50 years in cars only, now retired. I only ride for pleasure and just want enough power to take a freeway route with my son’s group when I’m invited. Compliments on a very nice review and hope you are still well and riding. 🙏
Very cool review. Thank you.
Great video for beginners! Style ... started as Harley inspired, adopted Italian naked lattice frame and retro Scrambler look with round accents. I see 1970s, 80s, 2000s influence that I can ride today. Beautiful!
I'm 5.7 and 70kg and I love the cmx 500..its gorgeous in so many ways
Thanks man . love your bike, very cool
Nice review!!
Good to see folks who recognize how great it is riding little bikes around in cities. Even if you're a big person (I'm 6'3" 210lbs.) a little bike might not be cruiser comfy but being able to flip the thing around in city traffic and parking has big advantages.
Very true - little motorcycles are a great way to save time, effort and money in big city transportation environments.
Ken Shine A little bike will eat a big bike's lunch on city streets, all day, every day. 👍🏽
We DID NOT get to see him ridung around the city. We only got to see the streets ahead of him. We saw the backs of cars and pavement. An absolutely worthless review of the Honda itself. The only time we get to see the bike is in some distant visuals ... and they're of different bikes.
real nice review, thx!!
I bought the 300. I have ridden for decades and have owned many motorcycles. I do not take long road trips. When I did, they were few, but I had a separate motorcycle for that. Larger motorcycles that are good for road trips are a pain for everyday use. The 300 and the 500 are exactly the same motorcycle except for the engine and gearing. The 500 has more hp and the engine is smoother at freeway speeds. If you are going to travel for long periods on the freeway or frequently carry a passenger then the 500 might be a better choice. If not, get the 300. The 300 gets almost 20% better mileage and costs about $1700-1800 less after taxes fees. For daily use and exploring the back-roads the 300 wins. The lighter weight and extended mileage are major pluses. When you are out having a good time, stopping for fuel is annoying. Buy the rear rack and passenger kit from Honda. Get a Memphis Shades Demon windshield (NOT the Speed Demon). Put an Emgo (Amazon) travel trunk on the rack. Use the money you saved by not buying the 500. Whichever one you buy, do not sell it if you get something bigger. Wait and see which one you ride most. Enjoy! PS: get the silver one or the black one. The others look stupid as the only thing that has color is the tank. At least on the silver one, they painted the rear fender to match.
Great breakdown - thanks for sharing. See ya on the road.
Thanks
Yes, the 300 cruises well at 70 mph. Drop it into 5th to pass. A little noticeable blur in the mirrors above 65, but nothing to worry about. Bar end weights would probably clear it up. It has a great riding position too.
Check out this comparison: th-cam.com/video/GilS1x3acfI/w-d-xo.html
So basically everyone should go with the style you prefer instead of going with a style that fits their own personality. Noted.
Great video! Thanks for helping make my choice in motorcycles as a new rider!
With the seat built up, the rider triangle would be more relaxed. There's plenty of scope to do this as it is unnaturally cut-down to start with.
Excellent review.
Great review Adam thanks! Older new rider currently on a 250 Nighthawk and considering this new Rebel. Question does it handle/corner as well as a standard? Thanks!
thanks for your input! I was thinking about getting this bike. I just don't know if I might be comfortable on it until I ride one or hear another tall rider's review. i'm a 6ft 170lb rider and thought the 2012 ninja 650 was not bad.
Great bike. Just got one. Love it
Quick little booger
How did you wheelie on the rebel? Could you do a video tutorial about it. I have been trying to wheelie my rebel 500 and it has been a pain. PLEASE!!!!
Seems more like a comfortable simple urban city commuter than a highway cruiser. I would have to consider a windscreen & dropping a few teeth off the rear sprocket for it to be highway READY.
If honda sold that bobber version (with the apes....blue and yellow) straight from the factory I would buy 2! As it is I can't be bothered to customize it myself. It's a real shame because that bobber version is stunning. Nice wee bike though. Great review
That USB port is excatly what I am looking for and even the placement seems perfect. Please let me know where I can buy that same USB port/mounting bracket. Any information on that would be great!
Sat on one at the dealer, I noticed my leg rides right on the crankcase cover, I wonder if that's going to be an issue for people? I'm 5'6" and 155 lbs, I have a CB500XA right now but this is a good looking bike and it does fit me well.
love ur helmet
I think reviews for newbie bikes should include expected damage when they drop it.
yogibearstie fact
Amen
Just learn how to ride wel by taking some lessons before u buy a new bike. As for dropping its mostly:bend bar(if ur unlucky) bend clutch/brake lever. Scratched engine case, bend shift lever and Maybe a broken indicator. This is worst case scenario in my head..ow and maybe fearings if u ride a sport bike.
You showed a few custom modded Rebel 500s (:01, :07, :22) - who made these? All LA based?
Bought mine back in may. Love it! 1 of the best purchases of my life. Only problem is the seat ... for long rides, im talking an hour or more. I just got some padding i throw under my ass.
I guess that's one upgrade I'll have to do along with the suspension when I get this bike..those 2 issues I see a lot of bikers complain about..
Have you ever rode a ninja 250?
I really like the look of these bikes but although I'm not a speed freak, I like a bit of poke.
My old ninja was a great bike but it had slightly too slow acceleration for me. Just wondering how the rebel compared to give me an idea.
Got a naked 600 atm so I don't usually go much over 80 anyway but if I got one of these it would have to be a bit livelier than the 250.
that's a dope helmet man! Also, what type of jacket do you recommend for summer riding? Getting my gear together.
Hi Terrence - thanks for the compliment and good question. We're big fans of the Tornado 2 jacket from REV'IT! - it is super modular and functions marvelously in hot summer weather. Fit is true-to-size and REV'IT! stands behind its product with a two-year warranty. This is an excellent jacket. You can take another look at it here: www.jakewilson.com/p/4753/63354/REVIT%21-Tornado-2-Textile-Jacket
I am getting ready to purchase my first motorcycle and I want this one! I hear its good for my short self 5"1
Yes, you can't go wrong with the 300. Let us know when you pick one up.
That shark custom version, where can i find some info on it? i need details on that custom build but i only find pictures of it when googeling.
Great Review Bruv! I'm a new rider and I'm planning to buy a unit because every review I've watched says its a great bike for beginners. My height is 6' flat, will I have any problem riding this bike? (i.e. changing gears, sitting position, etc.)
This one should be pretty good for you ergonomically, and operating the controls will just be a matter of getting used to the layout of the bike. Please let us know when you get one and how you like it!
New rider here, would adding crash bars add too much weight? Would crash bars be preferred for a new rider?
I really enjoy your reviews can you do one about your bell bullit helmet ? because I have a 2017 soft tail slim s and I tend to do 75+ miles on the highway without a windshield and I tend to ride my harley on those speeds like a cafe racer chest down to the tank I wanna know how that helmet will do on wind drag and what not on a cruiser similar to the 2017 soft tail slim s
did you got that helment?
Honda Rebel 500 or Kawasaki Vulcan S 650? For a newbie like me.
I live in a kinda mountainous region with steap hills and bad roads. Is the 300 too weak?
Newbie here.
Do you need to hold the clutch to shift on this bike ?
Hi, may I ask where can I buy that spoke wheel found in 1:22 of the video?Thanks
to be honest i was aiming at the 300 but after looking at a few videos before this i was told i should get the 500 because hitting the highway all over la county and different cities
same boat
We think you'll be more satisfied with the extra 'oomph of the Parallel Twin engine.
dre red I used to own a cbr300r and I'm now on a ninja 650r.... I wanted a cruiser and I knew I never wanted to be on a 300 again because they struggle at highway speeds (they can do it but it's not fun).... I sat on both the rebel 300 and 500 and they feel about the same but you are going to get a better performance on the 500.... i didn't learn with abs but I have it on my 650 which is a nice safety feature if you want to spend a little more. warning, you might grow out of a 500 within a year or so.
Same
Buying my first bike and it’s this one, I’m late but just wanted to share
I am not new to riding, I started out on a 750 Nighthawk ('84) and then moved on to an 1100 virago. The next bike I was looking to get was the Yamaha Stryker, but then this bike also caught my eye (for price, fuel economy, and insurance cost reasons). However, the "500" aspect scares me and the fact that everyone says it's an entry level bike. What are your thoughts? Would this bike be underwhelming compared to what I've driven?
Based on my personal experience- even though a 500 like the Rebel can have decent acceleration at lower speeds, once you get up to highway speeds things get disappointing pretty fast. Especially if we're comparing to what you've driven, it's not something I'd heartily recommend. That being said, there are some people who are okay with having a bike that is really only capable of city riding. It is certainly somewhat of a break on your wallet as far as insurance and fuel economy goes, so if you're willing to look past the underwhelming engine displacement it could be a very viable option. I suggest you go to a dealer and take one out for a test ride. ~Andrew
which helmet were you using in this video?
Can you turn off ABS if you get one with it?
4:14 this the 300 version ... you can drop the 500 in it and save licensing
I test rode the piss out of the 500 when I got the chance, and I loved everything about it except for gearing and that unholy turn signal switch position. They're so short and close, it's a constant shift fest, which was unnecessary for all the low end torque that was on tap. Going to 4th gear by 32 mph is....not appropriate. Shave a few teeth off the back sprocket and it would be fine. Grippy, flickable, balanced suspension, effortless clutch. It had alot of virtues aside from the gearing.
Thanks for sharing your experience!
4c1dr3fl3x what bike would you recommend to a new rider that was going to travel with it every so often? The estimated travel time would be close to 4 hours
Hi Kalvin - that's a good question - it depends on the type of riding you are planning - is it four hours across town in the city, or four hours of freeway riding across Missouri? Off the top of our heads, the Ninja 650R with its versatile engine and full fairing could be a good option. We have a review on our website, check it out:
www.ridersdomain.com/magazine/motorcycles/reviews/2017-kawasaki-ninja-650-first-test/
I'd have to ask a few questions about you before offering an honest opinion:
What's your size and age (height/weight)?
Mechanical knowledge?
Taking a passenger once you get some miles under your belt?
Do you want to sit back, up, or forward?
What do you like a bike to sound like (this is surprisingly important to people)?
Do you have style or brand preferences?
New bike or looking for something used?
I *can* say that the Rebel 500 would be fine on 55 mph or less country roads for 4 hour trips, but I couldn't say it's up to 4 hours of 65 mph+ freeway time without making your wrists go numb from the engine vibration, much of which will be transmitted through the bars.
Believe it or not, my all time favorite Freeway ride is a damn scooter. If you can make peace with the idea of riding a giant scooter, look up the Honda Silverwing FSC-600. Out of all the bikes in my garage (Harley Dyna Glide, Honda Silverwing Scooter, Yamaha R6, Triumph Street Twin, Triumph Thruxton, 1976 CB 750k, assorted dirtbikes) it gets the most long trip time, and now has 41k miles on it. It's just a plain comfortable and safe ride with tons of storage for trips. The Triumph Street Twin is probably the next best new rider bike, it's incredibly forgiving.
Riders Domain, I will look into that bike, as for the four hour trip, it had a mixture of going 55 all the way up to 75. Although the majority of the time will be in the 55mph range
Squid in, squeezin'. Love it.
what's the top speed on the rebel 300?
What smartphone mount are you using in this video? Does it shake or rattle over rough roads or big bumps?
Hi Dan - we used a RAM mount (product link below). It works quite well actually. The web rubber mount apparatus ensures that the phone stays in position and doesn't move even over bumpy pothole-laden roads. During our mostly city ride our iPhone 6S didn't shake. It's a good product. Thanks for watching.
RAM X-Grip Smartphone Mount: www.jakewilson.com/p/1320/31906/Ram-Mounts-Brake-Clutch-Reservoir-U-Bolt-Mount-w-Universal-X-Grip-Phone-Holder
Riders Domain thanks so much for the response, I'll have to check it out!
Anytime - it can be hard to find truly useful accessories for riding. So we're happy to help. Take care and hope to see you on the road one day.
6 grand, i wish. If only the stealerships around Seattle weren't trying to charge me 8k out the door. Beautiful bike.
The exhaust looks off to me, any idea if there's going to be aftermarket options?
two brothers has one but good luck finding it anywhere, not sure how to get my hands around one but k speed customs has a website with all of there mods for the 500, but i think its all in thai and everything is priced in baht
Can i change the seat pan
It's one of those modern bobbers.
i want one
I want to buy a new Honda rebel for my first bike but I really want the gold one with red and orange strips do you know how I go about getting one?
Hi Gloria, the subject motorcycle in that video is a custom one-off machine built by American Honda. If you pickup a new Rebel, we can connect you with a company that will help you build that thing to identical spec. Good luck.
Riders Domain thanks!!! ✌🏼
Gloria from what I've read the Rebels are a good platform for customizing.
Do you think a 6'10" (186cm) person will fit on this bike? I really like the simplicity of this bike.
I heard it's hard for a person over 6' to ride comfortably
I am 6'3"-6'4" and went to my local dealer and sat on one... I would have to recommend against it. It has a really low seat height at 691mm (27.2in), and I felt cramped up within 2 minutes of sitting on it. If you are into the circular headlight design etc, take a look at the new CB300R (replacing the CB300F), it has a seat height of 800mm (31.5in) and feels infinitely better. While I was also initially obsessed with the clean bobber look of the Rebel, the new "neo-Cafe racer" design on the CB300/650/1000R actually looks very nice and I've come to prefer it to that of the Rebel even!
I already got mine but the gear box has a hard and loud click when shifting gears, also when breaking on higher gears 4th or more it makes a whining noise. If I break on second or third nothing happens. Don't know what it could be, I will take it to the dealership. Great bike tho, and good looking.
To behonest this bike engine was taken from the cbr500r which is a budget bike but I heard about it's gear issue however no one had it fail on them that just the nature of it. I ride an old 2007 ninja 250 (before the ninja 650 face update) and it's gears are worst when shifting but that's the nature of it.
That's weird? Let us know what the resolution is for your said problem, please...
The hard clunk in first gear is normal. It lets you know you've slotted from neutral to first. Some bikes clunk when you shift up to 2nd gear too and that's normal aswell. When you say whining noise while braking, do you mean the brake makes noise or the gearbox? Do you not downshift while you slow down?
I know it's a little difficult to tell, but can someone identify the bike in the right portion of the frame at 1:46?
Travis Donald Stanley Great, thanks a bunch!
these bikes made in japan?
I think this bike in all black is stupid attractive and a very nice beginner bike (which I am)
Only real concern is that I am 6’3”... pretty nervous I will not comfortably fit on her /:
Might be a tight fit. If you have a chance to sit on one/get one, let us know how it works out!
What modifications would you do on the 500?
Good question. Would probably fit the RAM phone mount used in the video as well as an USB power port.
Here is a link so some of the items you can purchase for a Rebel 500:
www.ridersdomain.com/motorcycle-parts/2018-honda-rebel-500-cmx500h
0:25 what seat kit is that? I want to make my rebel have that back end.
what jacket are you wearing here? And is this alright for a beginner rider?
Hi Neil - we're wearing the Hudson coat from REV'IT! (link in the description). It's an excellent fashion-inspired coat that actually performs well as a motorcycle jacket.
Yes, we'd say so. Make sure to read the article (link in description) to get some more insight on what it's like to ride from a newbie's point of view.
Riders Domain thanks
can you review the 883 iron harley
Hi Ryan - thanks for the request. Good news: we are publishing a review of the new Street Bob on Monday next week. Bad news: we don't have any concrete plans to review the 883. We will add it to the to-do list however!
They should bring back the cb750...
I am going to go from a grom to a rebel 500
That's cool - I'm going from Grom to PCX150, lol. But the Rebel 500 is cool too.
My wife and I owned a PCX-150 for about a year, that thing was more fun than should be legal! Honda ought to do a 250 version, I think; I'm not a fan of the Forza's styling. Something in between would rock!
Siper2 They used to. If you look hard, you might catch a used one. It was called the Reflex it was a 250. I have one and I love it! I think it's funny you say you didn't like the Forza styling. It looks really similar to the PCX to me!
pretty much a new version of a ujm
Does the rebel show what gear you're in, on the instrument cluster
Juan Yupa hey i own a rebel 500, no there is no gear indicator or rpm gauge, which would’ve been nice as a beginner myself but you can add a gear indicator which you can buy on amazon it was super easy, as for the rpm gauge not as necessary but would really be nice.
The 2020 model does, no tachometer though. You don't really need it though once you get used to it.
im a new rider an want this bike but i also wanna drive across country with it. How would that ride be with this bike ???????
Well it certainly is not designed as a distance bike.. In theory, with careful planning for fuel you could ride it across the country. That being said, as far as comfort goes for day-long rides back to back, I wouldn't recommend it. If you're looking to go across the country, I would suggest you take a look at a touring or adventure bike with bigger fuel capacity and a more upright seat position. The Rebel 500 does much better as a metro cruiser for city commuting and rides on local highways. -Andrew
How in the hell can you expect a person to answer that question?
Hipster Mecca of the World is Brighton, England..
anyone know what jacket Adam is wearing?
Great question! We'll go ahead and throw the names and links in here for ya!

Hey Adam, whats your point of view on ABS for a newbie? THX.
good (not sure if it prevents tucking front im not that aggressive in corners) but when you go to dealer look at abs one under rear of engine under swingarm = big ass ugly abs pump
I have had Both ABS and NON-ABS bikes. Get the ABS bike!!!!, I have been riding motorcycles since I was 12 years old, so that is 40 years riding, I have had several panic stop situations over the years, locked the rear brake once in a panic and got the bike rear of the bike Sideways to the point I could see the rear of the bike trying to pass the front of the bike. another time I had a truck do a panic stop in front of me, I had to do a panic stop also, and again the rear wheel locked up and started sliding sideways and almost was thrown from the bike. GET the ABS!!!!!!!!!! you Never want to use it, but emergencies happen, no matter how good a rider you are, you will have to deal with other drivers that do Not pay attention, they may still be half a sleep, or didn't sleep for a couple of nights. What about when a car coming head on is in your lane. What ABS does is provide you the confidence to really Clamp the brake HARD!! without any fear that a wheel or two will lock up and throw you from the bike. What is it maybe $300.00 option for ABS? that is dirt cheap and well worth it.
ABS is like insurance. You may never need to activate it but when its not your day you'll be glad you had it to protect your butt.
Hi Alex, here is what Adam says: "ABS is a great feature for new and experience riders alike - it helps take the worry out of braking by preventing either tire from locking up and causing a skid due to too much brake pressure or surface/pavement conditions. But for riders that like to slide or cut skids with the back brake/rear tire, ABS removes that opportunity. Overall it's a great feature, but it's always nice when there's a setting to manually disable the feature, if you desire". Thanks for the note and ride safe.
Ur An idiot if u dont take abs even as a veteran. When you break proper IT wil not be activating so IT wont harm ur driving in any way. IT may safe ur life once. IT as retarded as people claiming that helmets cause neck injuries.
Great review. But u sound like want to cry. Don't be sad bro
AHAHAHAHAH
I Already Bought It!! 😎😎...
That's great - how's it holding up so far? Any mods?
Harith Annuar hi so u like it?
5'8" newbie, 180lbs. About right for someone like me?
Umbrellas876 you and I are about the same size, I bought my 500 in July and have 4500 miles on it and couldn't be happier.
Could you link the modded bikes at the start of the video.
Please let me know the brand name of the bag
Hi - this bag is by 511 Tactical - not sure the model name however. I just hopped on its website and it doesn't look like they carry it anymore. Looks like the "2-banger" bag is the closest thing...
Arnt you scared of your phone falling?
Phone mounts always make us a bit nervous. But both RokForm and RAM Mounts make nice products that help ensure your phone will remain securely in place during rides.
My dream...
It's the next step up for the Grom crowd... Lmao. You show a couple models because I see tread differences in different shots. One looks shod with Trailwings (yuck). Needs a pillion seat. This is a single person's commuter.
what shoes are you wearing?
Hi - these are the Grand shoe from REV'IT!. You can take a closer look at them here: www.jakewilson.com/p/4713/67101/REVIT%21-Grand-Riding-Shoes
Its funny how some reviewers hate, what others praise. Oh well...
1:54 what bike is that?
PARTY it's a rebel 500 that is modded up.
is it possible to add a back seat?
yes
Yes, it is available as an OE Honda accessory.
It's depressing that I'm 5 feet tall guy and probably will never be able to ride a motorcycle cause I'm to short lol
Bikes come in all shapes and sizes. Do not worry about your height. Go to dealerships and sit on different bikes, you will find a bike for you.
I've been riding for almost 10 years and I can tell you know about motorcycles because the way you talk
USB plug on Rebel?
I thought I saw that too. Glad it wasn't just me.
It absorbbbs the b..b..b...bumppppssss real nice
dont use your phone while riding
How can you do a review after only riding for 500 seconds? 😂
How do you do, fellow kids?
blinnbh n
how tall are you ?
Hi Andrew - Adam is six-foot tall.
Riders Domain I appreciate the fast response. Thank you guys👍
Thanks for tuning in - we love hearing feedback and questions from folks like you.
I would have gotten this for my girlfriend if it wasn't for the Vulcan s.
The Vulcan S is a solid bike, how's she liking it?
Riders Domain she has her motorcycle class in a month. This is all just future planning. The bikes she's interested in right now are Vulcan s, Versys x and the ninja 300/R3
All great bikes for sure, broad range of styles too. I'm sure she'll be happy with any of those!
Riders Domain and if she decides motorcycling isn't for her I would be very happy too XD
Win win all around! Let us know what you end up getting, would be interested to hear how she (or you) end up liking the bike.
Why your voice shaking?are you scared?
x nitro it's probably all the bumps that's making his voice all bumpy and stuff
heh
Whenever a bike review is done during a ride, the review is basically worthless. It's just a visual review of the road ahead and bad, jittery audio.
LA the hipster mecca of the world , no wonder the state can pay their bills and it is heavily in debt, guess hipsters are not good news for the economy, other than that I love the bike😎
So what is this channel? That dude Adam Waheed started his own? Much more style than moto USA, the seemed so sterile
Hi - thanks for the note. This is our new Riders Domain channel - we're a motorcycling community where you can watch videos, read reviews, and learn about many of the fun and exciting happenings in the world of motorcycling. Thanks for tuning-in.
Riders Domain that is not an answer
I hope that Honda Taiwan figured out the problems they were having with their 500cc twin engines that were Failing fairly frequently. I almost bought a CB500X, but was also looking at the CB500F, those are the Exact same Engine/Transmission that are being put in the new Rebel 500. Cam plugs were Falling Out do to vibration and a Major oil leak occurs while riding and the engine seizes up and is JUNK!! I wish Honda would bring back their Manufacturing back to Japan, I know Honda is trying to cut costs to make the bike very affordable, but to jeopardize their reputation of building a quality bike is NOT a good sign. Go to the forums for the Honda CB500F, CB500X forum and you will see how many failure's have occurred and what Honda did or didn't do for their customers (Even under warranty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I'll pass, or at least wait for a year or two especially after seeing what happened with the other/Same 500cc engine/Trans and being manufactured in Taiwan.
Nobody pay attention to this Gary West aka The Troll's post. First up, The 500 is made in Thailand not Taiwan. Learn your geography before you spout imaginary stories on the internet. The 500s had only one recall over a relay switch replacement that was common across all Honda motorcycles even one made in Japan because the vendor supply was common for all bikes..
There are no issues with the engine and transmission of any 500 R/F or X bikes. So stop making shit up.
Gary West lucky there's honda dealers everywhere. 👍 can fix that.
lmao dude says hunderrrrd instead of hundred every time.
