Key Features |
| Engine & Drivetrain |
|
More power, more torque
The 471 cc DOHC liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine uses a square bore & stroke of 67 mm x 66.8 mm for an optimum combination of strong low-end torque and excellent top-end power and performance. |
|
Slipper clutch
"Not only does the slipper clutch help to prevent rear-wheel lockup on downshifts, it also reduces effort at the lever by almost half, helping to reduce rider fatigue particularly in city traffic or on long rides." rsatile 649 cc DOHC features direct cam actuation and 11.6:1 compression to increase peak power delivery at a thrilling 11,000 RPM. |
Smooth and compact
Engine vibration is kept to a minimum by using crank pins phased at 180 degrees and a balancer shaft behind the cylinders, which also contributes to the engine’s |
|
Crisp throttle response
PGM-FI electronic fuel injection keeps the engine running efficiently in virtually all conditions and helps ensure crisp throttle response and powerful torque at low to mid RPM. |
Small & light water pump
Careful flow analysis of the cooling system resulted in a water pump that’s small and lightweight, yet still more than capable of keeping the engine running its best at high |
Maximized efficiency
In order to maximize air-intake and exhaust efficiency, the profile from the air cleaner through the intake ports to the exhaust pipe was made as straight as |
|
Reduced weight & friction
The four valves in each of the DOHC cylinder heads have narrow stems, thereby reducing weight and friction and increasing efficiency. |
|
High-tech design
A light and compact roller-rocker-arm assembly and shim-type valve adjustment allows a lower valve-spring load for reduced friction and a compact cylinder head. |
|
Durability
The pins in the silent cam chain have been treated with vanadium, which both reduces friction and improves durability. The lightweight pistons use the same advanced manufacturing process as those found in the CBR1000RR. To ensure precise cylinder shape, the engine uses the same centrifugal-cast thin-wall sleeves as found in the CBR1000RR. |
|
Reduced friction
The oil pump’s internal relief structure uses the same design as found in the CBR1000RR, which reduces friction, improves aeration performance and simplifies the shape of the oil pan. |
|
Easy shifting
The gear indicator and adjustable shift-up indicator make it even easier to use the smooth-shifting six-speed gearbox. |
|
The sound of power
The battery has been repositioned farther from the rear of the airbox intake duct to maximize air-intake and exhaust efficiency, while the muffler now features dual exit pipes for a sportier sounding edge to the exhaust note. |
| Chassis & Suspension |
|
Excellent response & feedback
The lightweight diamond-shaped steel frame was designed to allow a certain degree of yield, which enables it to better respond to changes in the road surface and to transmit just the right amount of feedback to the rider. |
Comfortable & sporty ride
"The Pro-Link® rear suspension boasts a single-tube shock absorber (as found on larger capacity sportbikes) with five-stage spring preload adjustment, replacing the double-tube design of the previous model. Its large-diameter piston helps to ensure excellent suspension response and improved heat dissipation. Both the shock and the adjustable 41 mm fork are calibrated for a comfortable but sporty ride." |
|
Easy to manage
The 785 mm seat height makes the CB500F very easy to manage, and its neutral riding position comfortably accommodates riders of any height. |
Lightweight wheels
Lightweight cast aluminum wheels with Y-shaped spokes not only look trick, they also contribute to the bike’s excellent manoeuvrability. |
Powerful braking
A dual-piston brake caliper up front and a single-piston caliper at the back are designed to provide strong but easily controlled stopping power. Plus, two-channel ABS gives you extra peace of mind on reduced-traction road surfaces. Wave brake rotors with superlative heat-dissipating qualities are lighter than conventional discs of the same diameter, which help to further reduce the bike’s unsprung weight. |
| Additional Features |
Designed for city & highway rides
Ergonomics were carefully configured to ensure an unrestricted riding position that allows easy manoeuvring in town, an easy reach to the ground, as well as excellent comfort during long-distance highway trips. |
Aggressive look
Sleek bodywork incorporates an LED headlight, taillight and turn signals, and leaves more of the engine exposed for an aggressive, streetfighter look. |
Increased range
It not only looks more aggressive, but the redesigned fuel tank also boasts increased capacity of 17.1 litres, providing a range of approximately 480 km for longer rides and fewer stops. |
Convenient storage
A utility space under the seat accommodates a U-lock, wet weather gear or other items. |
More upgrades
Adjustable brake lever and wave-style ignition key add to the CB500F’s long list of premium features. |
