Honda CBR500R Fast, Frugal, Affordable Fun

Honda CBR500R Fast, Frugal, Affordable Fun

Date: 2015-05-01
The CBR500R's performance will give anyone looking for their first sports bike an exhilarating ride on twisty, winding road or even the race track. It works equally well in urban environments and is a motorcycle designed to be ridden, and thoroughly enjoyed, by people of all shapes and sizes.

Its DOHC twin-cylinder fuel-injected engine produces 35kW and returns an impressive 27km/l (WMTC figure). Honda's engineers see it very much as an "accessible CBR engine," and worthy of the name.

The steel diamond frame and high quality suspension - 41mm telescopic front forks matched to Pro-Link rear monoshock provide confident, precise handling as do 17-inch cast aluminium wheels with wide 120 section front, 160 section rear radial tyres.

While it may feature the styling of the four-cylinder CBR1000RR, the CBR500R's similarities to its big brother are more than skin deep.

The CBR500R's engine is a next generation power unit, looking to the future in both performance and environmental terms. The DOHC, 8-valve liquid-cooled parallel twin layout was chosen because of its lightweight, all-round ability and flexible usability.

Call us for more information at Honda Wing Umhlanga on 031 580 7900 or visit our showroom at 15 Meridian Drive, Umhlanga Ridge and feel the Honda thrill.
