HONDACB500E 1992 - 1993

　　The Honda CB500E was a medium-sized motorcycle manufactured by Honda from 1993 to 2003. The bike was part of the CB series in Honda's range, a series of motorcycles with different engine displacements known for their reliability and performance.

　　With its low cost, reliability, and good handling, the bike was a popular choice for commuters and motorcycle couriers. Also, the bike was used for racing in the Honda CB500 Cup in the United Kingdom.

　　The Honda engineers claimed that the 499cc engine was designated to last for 300,000 km (186,000 miles). One motorcycle was tested by Moto Revue from 1993 through 1996 and dismantled at 50,000 km (31,000 miles), and the engine was in perfect condition.

　　At 100,000 km (62,000 miles), only the cam chain and piston were replaced, but other than that, in the tester's opinion, the bike could have run with the original parts for longer without any problems.

　　In 1993, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the first Honda CB500E that came equipped with standard features, such as cast aluminum wheels, a one-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a black-finished steel frame, a round headlight with a chromed housing, an analog instrument panel, and a completely blacked-out exhaust system.

　　As for the power figures, the 1993 Honda CB500E had its muscles from a 499cc four-stroke parallel-twin liquid-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 58 hp at 9,500 rpm and 47 Nm ( 32 lb-ft) of torque at 8,000 rpm.
