HONDACB500X 2017 - Present

　　In 2017, the Japanese motorcycle manufacturer launched the Honda CB500X, an adventure motorcycle part of the trio that debuted in 2013, which included the CB500F naked machine and CBR500R sports bike.

　　The 2017 CB500X model benefitted from the upgrades brought upon the 2016 models, such as a 100 mm taller windscreen with height adjustability, a carefully shaped larger fuel tank that gave the rider an unrestricted riding position, a new LED headlight and taillight, an adjustable front fork, and an adjustable brake lever.

　　All models were based on the same engine and chassis, such as a 471cc powerplant and a diamond-shaped 35 mm steel tube frame that came in a lightweight and rigid package and offered responsive sport handling.

　　The chassis housed the front suspension, which included a 41 mm telescopic fork with 12 cm (4.9 inches) of wheel travel and a sophisticated Pro-Link single-shock absorber on the rear that provided nine-stage spring preload adjustability and almost 12 cm (4.7 inches) of wheel travel.

　　Also, the bike came equipped from the factory with 12-spoke lightweight cast aluminum wheels fitted with a 320 mm wave-style disc with a two-piston caliper on the front and a 240 mm disc squeezed by a single-piston caliper on the rear that provided strong braking performance.

　　As for power, the 2017 Honda CB500X adventure machine took its muscles from a 471cc parallel-twin four-stroke liquid-cooled engine fed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system that helped deliver an output power of 47 hp at 8,500 rpm and 43 Nm (32 lb-ft) of torque available at 7,000 rpm.
