  • New 2016 Honda CBR500R Released

    Honda has announced the arrival of the new CBR500R to its impressive stable.
    The 2016 Honda CBR500R is set to join the CB500X in Honda showrooms around the country from April 18,2016. The 471cc DOHC engine and steel diamond-tube framed model will receive an aggressive new look in 2016.

    The hard-edged makeover is palpable across the new model, with assertive lines and dynamic form which stands out amongst the crowd.
    Honda’s 500 class motorcycles that were made famous for punching well above their weight are raising the bar once again.
    With LED lighting, a larger fuel tank, adjustable front forks and a satisfying growl from a redesigned exhaust system, the new CBR500R means business.

    News Approved. Please add sources of news always.

    Honda just used this sentence, "a great all-around powerplant for any kind of riding you have in mind." I wonder if that means rough usage, as in off road and all, since its a road bike.. (?)
    But overall, I love the bike! I hope it makes it to India...

      Thank you Samarth Ill keep that mind. Usually I add the source without fail to give credit but it looks like I missed it this time.

      I guess Honda is trying to promote this bike to Asian countries where people would love to have one bike and just one for touring and commuting.
