That was an excellent accessory review. The windscreen and foot peg multi shots were awesome 👌. Very cool bike bits and very informative. Well done 👏

you gotta quit buying stuff. I have 29000 miles and ive only just now put on crash bars.

Ah come on, everyone is different. I know people that buy bikes to mainly mod them. And fair play to them

That intro was sick. Specially the clarity of the sounds.

I thank god there are people like you. Who like to put a lot of time and energy into whatever they are doing. This video is really informative and instructive for those of us who are new to this hobby. Greetings from Sweden.

Thanks so much. Appreciate you watching the video.

Great review mate, a lot of people say these are beginner bikes but I’m not sure what that really means? I’ve got a 2020 model and have had a Africa twin 2017. Both great bikes. The Africa twin was faster and had better suspension but that’s about it. All bikes are a compromise somewhere. Keep up the good work 👍🏻

The shifter pedal has an adjustable linkage, you can position the shifter to any position you require, I also have a 2018 model 500x, had the same problem until I did the adjustment, very simple to do!

I said the same thing when I got to that part. I was like "oh no...he didn't know you can just move the shift pedal up and down". RIP. I still hate the standard pegs anyway, so I replaced those rubber ones with some nice cleated ones.

Hi. For my 2018 CB500x I bought a pair of Alpinestar Corozal ADV boots, larger than yours. All I did was shorten the adjustable link rod between the shifter lever and the gearbox by 15mm and it worked great. Love what you have done to the bike. Look forward to the trip.

Thanks for the tips!

Thank you Joh ! . Thank you for explaining it all in laymen terms like you did . I am on my second CB500X . It has the Rally Raid wheel and suspension package which really changes this bike ....totally . Both of my CB's have the original factory windshield . Yes , the buffeting is a known issue with the CB's . The fix for this ended up being the small windscreen added to the top of my windshield made by Puig . I don't really understand why it works so well but for me ( 6 ' tall ) it has to totally eliminated the buffeting ....100% . Its hard to believe but it is true .

Yours is the nicest looking cb 500x ive seen yet. it looks great all blacked out.

I had the same issues with my footpeg and boots. Took me so long to find something that worked but I ended up with the Dainese Fulcrum GT boots which aren't as protective as an adventure boot admittedly but they are fantastic. Aiming to get a CB500x soon! Thanks for the walkthrough on yours!

In case anyone else thinks that limiting your choice of boots is necessary in order to get under the gear shift lever - there are two barrel nuts on the shifter linkage, with opposite hand thread. Using those barrel nuts, you can make the shifter linkage shorter or longer, thereby raising or lowering the shifter

They attach to the engine. If you watch the Colorado video you'll see where the bolt broke off while still in the engine!

Thanks for your video! How do the swm footpegs hold up up till now? Do you still like them? It looks like they stick out quite a bit wider, so I would like to know whether the boots can still have a good contact with the bike's frame while standing off road.
