This is one of the greatest bike reviews I've ever seen. I don't think anyone's ever compared bikes within the same "family" like this before. Great job all around.

I’m sorry but this was a terrible review…. Couldn’t even tell you the wheel size without looking it’s simple enough to remember. Kept mixing the names up on the bikes. And there’s not two power sockets on the X the blank plate in the middle is for the Genuine Honda fog light switch. Considering you work for Honda, your knowledge of these bikes was poor.

Fantastic review! It’s sooooo useful to see the differences in the same displacement class within Honda! Really helps making a purchase decision. Well Done!

Not just for learning….I use the CB500X for daily work / home commuting. While using the Gold Wing for the weekend.

Great video! I'm looking at coming by your dealership to see which one works best for me.

this is literally so helpful

THE BUG AT 20:00 BHAHAHAHA. btw great vid dude. love it, keep it up.

Thank you for this. I'm finally sold on the cb500x

Amazing video thank u for ur time

Excellent presentation!

Great video! 👍I currently own a 2022 Cmx500 and I want a Cb500f or the cbr500r. Any thoughts? I'm 5'4. Bought the cmx500 because because before getting comfortable I wanted both feet down as an option but after riding a while. Flat footing not really a concer anymore. Thanks

Great comparison, thanks.....

I wish I had them all! Can’t really choose what will be my first bike!

Great video - just what I needed to narrow down my choice.

@@ShadyGrady3 The only difference betweeen an F and an X is that the X has slightly higher ride height for mild offroading and comes with a small windscreen. Other than that,they are almost identical bikes. Same engine, brakes and suspension. So it depends on whether you really need that higher ride height for the type of riding that you do. Other than that, go with the F.

Agreed. Love the F

could you please answer two questions that hours of googling doesnt seem to answer?. are luggage racks that fit a 2022 cb500x compatible with the 2022 cb500f?, and will racks from a earlier model cb500f's fit the new 2022 model. thanks.

I, too, regret going for the Rebel 500 instead of the CB500X. I was a fool to go for what a beginner would consider stylish versus what is practical and way more versatile.

A Rebel 500 is not a stylish bike compared to a Benelli 502c which is a better looking cruiser not a fan of the headlight though here's my taste of stylish bikes Harley Davidson Vrod Muscle, Ducati Diavel, Yamaha R1, BMW s1000rr as for best looking/sounding learner bike that would have to go to the CF Moto 450sr for me

I'm thinking about getting a 2022 CB500F ABS all the new features it has are great, is that a good choice for a beginner ? great video it helps seeing them all lined up not many places have so many options where I'm at

Dude, any CB500 is great for all day riding. The Rebel and the CB500FA will if anything match most cruisers. Any of these 500 models will do highway speeds all day long with power to get you out of sticky situation. Any 500 will out accelerate cars off the line in normal traffic conditions. The best marketing point is the crazy gas mileage you get out of one tank. Stay at 60mph and you will definitely make 70 mpg or more! I have a 2021 CB500FA and under no wind or back wind conditions I have done 70mpg going 70 mph!!! This line is remarkable every day bike.

Ed, I like the Rebel 500! I'd have replace that "baloney tube" exhaust pipe, put on the Rebel 1100 dash gauge, a windshield &better tires! The CBR is out. The x & f models are the ones I'm fighting between. Great video presentation and info giving. Doug🏍️👍😎🤓🧸🐻🦅

Thanks for very informative video! What would you consider more beginner friendly, the cbr500r or cb500F? I am concerned about the comfort of the cbr500r im 5'9, but i realized that i'm still young (22) and my back wont probably hurt as much as any other older person. Would the cbr500r be a good daily driver? I've been riding a 125cc-155cc for a few years now. Also, does the cb500f have a wider turning radius than the cbr500r?

Im 5’9 and yes they 500x is tall but compared to others in it’s class ray height is low and even for me it’s not an issue/ at first it’s concerning once ya used to it it’s fine. Did you decide on anything yet?

CB500X For me please, I have a 250L rally and love the smaller adventure bikes .

What are your thoughts on the CB500X for experienced riders? I'm looking for comfort and a commanding upright riding position. What's your impression on power. I know it's not going to whip my head back, it's about 60-70 HP down on what I ride now but I don't really use the top end that much on my current bike. I'm looking for a bike to cover ground, explore more secondary paved roads but will still see highway time so I need merge power and do commuter duties in addition to fun rides.

Hi, I have been riding a 2014 CB 500F for about 5 years now. I've been riding since the early 80's, mostly 750 Hondas and Suzukis. I have to say, this bike has been the most fun of all of them. The smaller size plus the torquey powerband of the engine makes it a dream to ride around town. I really don't miss the 750 power and at my age this is all I need for my riding. I outfitted mine with a small Givi windscreen which works beautifully taking the wind off my chest at highway speeds. I also added a back carrier and saddle bag holders for touring. The gas mileage is great. A lot of people complain about the gearing being too low and you are revving around 5500 I think at about 70 mph. It's pretty smooth though even at those revs and can easily be fixed by an inexpensive change of the front or rear sprocket. I have always liked the idea of the 500 X but since I don't do a lot of backroads stuff ( although I wouldn't mind) the F has been just fine so far. I would say for the older experienced rider, the 500 is a great all rounder that won't break your budget. Gets a high recommendation from me.

500x comfort and commanding upright position is perfect for me. Power is fine on streets but haven’t done highway yet so can’t comment on that.

I will have to say this the rebels keys are much different than all of the rest of the bikes if you look. The rebel key is cut like a traditional key vs the other bikes where the key is laser cutted from the sides.

I’m looking at the CB500F but one thing important to me that you left out was the fuel tank size / capacity and miles per gallon. I ride a lot and hate to stop every 100 miles for gas.

Had my rebel for a little over a year now. Unless you live near absolutely pristine roads or are ready to replace the forks I wouldn't say its good for passengers. The forks dive more than enough without the additional weight of another person, so every turn is going to be planned out and potholes or crap roads are going to be pretty painful riding

The new CB500F is a great motorbike, as in sensible but has an ugly front. The CB500F should have a round headlight like the CB300R Neo Cafe Racer and called a CB500R.
