Best list of problems I've ever heard. Basically nothing really wrong with this bike :)

Nothing 🤣

There are rear baggage racks available for these that are very practical and don't lookout of place. The horn button is an issue on many bikes, I have a Suzuki Gladius with the same problem but you soon get used to it.

Thank you ☺️

I love the side luggage! I did myself with a Blauer waterproof bag and I find it very cool and suitable😎

Excellent! That must looks great 😊 nice work

Bits where the engine sticks out, the ignition and the steering lock are all the same as the Rebel which shares the same engine and main body. That cover for the clutch is always getting in the way but at least I'm not burning my feet

Cheers for watching. I should try the rebel, would be interesting to compare the riding positions with the CL. I agree in regards with the clutch guards I especially love them when it’s something I don’t have to source, pay for and fit myself.

If anyone has modded this with a lower exhaust so it could have twin panniers I'd be interested. It has same switchgear as CB500F, and I've hit the horn a few times unintentionally

I drive an nc750x and the layout of the indicators and the horn are worse. The horn is just where your thumb naturally goes. I think they have solved it better now on the cl.

I guess it could be said the the horn placement on the CL is actually a feature not a bug. And its more accessible, making the bike safer on busy roads

@@FabMotorbikes I think they could have placed the horn below the blinkers.

Spoked wheels are available, from Kspeed Thailand, they are tubeless too

Didn’t know that. Thank you

I put a 30 litre bag on the seat and strap it. No worries whatsoever. Could be an issue with a very large overhanging bag I guess, but in what situation would you need say 60+ l with that bike. There are also good after market rear racks if you really need it.

Thank you, all helpful. Funny Honda put that sticker on the back… they’re probably just covering themselves. You can do what you like in reality and seems to work fine 👍

what about display? Is it readable in bright weater?

No Its not . The display is useless and needs addressing.

Is it hard to reverse the image when using the front camera?

Definitely need to look into it

Turns out not difficult at all. Just a symptom of having a brand new phone. I appreciate you bringing this simple issue to my attention. Should have thought of it myself 😂

Nice! Its annoying seeing your exhaust move from the right to the left side.

To be honest, it coloured my whole view of your video. Probably says more about me than you!

@steveslater2260 definitely a silly error on my part. Onwards and upwards! 😊

Cut that horn button down a bit with a dremel but the keying arrangement is really dumb. Both locks are exposed to mud and grit splashes while main one could even get knocked. The wheels are great, leave them alone.

Cheers . All good points 👍

Luggage = It's not the only option if you simply add a rack .

True. Rack and top box works. Just odd I guess they “recommend” not putting a bag over the seat. Not a massive deal though

In my opinion, this video is total nonsense. I have now ridden almost 5000 km with my CL-500, and not one point you have listed is significant or annoying. 👎
