Our Do-It-All 500
When it comes to versatility and value, if there's one bike that really stands out in our 2022 lineup that has to be our CB500F. It's always been a spectacular combination, offering a machine that's just as happy carrying you on a daily commute as going for a weekend trip. Its twin-cylinder engine is smooth and provides excellent fuel economy. Its streetfighter style is timeless, and this year, some big improvements and upgrades include a new 41mm Showa upside-down SFF-BP fork, dual front brake discs with radial-mount four-piston calipers, new, lighter wheels and more. Anti-lock brakes (ABS) are standard, and so is a new color choice: Matte Gray Metallic. The 2022 Honda CB500F: It's the midsized bike with giant-sized features.
- DOHC Twin-Cylinder Engine: Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the CB500F's engine is one of our best ever. With plenty of low-end horsepower and torque, this parallel-twin offers accessible performance across all RPM ranges.
- Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI): The injectors on the CB500F are part of the reason the bike makes more power in the critical 3000-7000 RPM range. The bike's PGM-FI continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the existing riding and atmospheric conditions for crisp throttle response throughout a wide variety of riding conditions.
- Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS): Standard equipment on every 2022 CB500F, helping you make smoother, more controlled stops under less-than-ideal conditions.
- Upside-Down Fork: Probably the most significant change for 2022 is the upside-down fork on the CB500F. The inverted design makes the front end much more rigid, for more precise steering input and feedback. The fork itself is a 41mm Showa SFF-BP design—one of the best in its class.
- New Cast Wheels: Strong and stylish, the CB500F's aluminum wheels feature a new five-spoke design this year that's lighter than our previous wheels. That improves handling, and lessens wheel inertia too.
- Pro-Link® Rear Suspension: A sophisticated chassis with Honda Pro-Link® rear suspension, nine-stage adjustable preload, 4.7 inches of travel and large-diameter shock give you a comfortable ride over small bumps, while capably absorbing bigger bumps to increase riding comfort and handling.
- Steel-Tube Frame: A motorcycle's frame is the basis for its handling. The CB500F's diamond-shaped 35mm steel-tube mainframe ties to the engine with four mounts, offering a rock-solid foundation for a superior ride and handling.
- Slipper Assist Clutch: The slipper/assist clutch lets us lighten up the clutch-lever effort by 45 percent, but automatically locks up tight when you release it.
- Digital Instrumentation: A modern, easy-to-read LCD screen features digital speedometer, tachometer and more, including a clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators.
- New, Lighter Swingarm: For 2022, the CB500F gets a swingarm that's over two pounds lighter than the previous bike's, but just as strong. It's one of the reasons the entire Honda 500 family handles so well.
- Disc Brakes: New for 2022, the CB500F now features twin front disc brakes. The two 296mm discs are gripped by twin four-piston radial-mount calipers. Together with the rear 240mm disc, you get strong, predictable stopping power. The front-brake lever is also adjustable for a perfect fit.
- LED Headlight: The CB500F's dual-lens LED headlight gives the front end a cutting-edge look and also projects plenty of light on the road for visibility.
- Smoother Transmission: Our engineers profiled the shift dogs in the transmission to help you get smoother shifts every time. You'll never see these parts, but you'll feel their effects.
- Step Seat: The CB500F offers a step seat with a low height. Perfect for around-town riding or out in the canyons, it also offers plenty of room for a passenger and is specially designed to fit a wide range of riders.
- Passenger Handholds: Sturdy passenger handholds provide security for your passenger or tie-down points for smaller items.
- Unique Style: Less is more when it comes to the CB500F. With its lean, progressive style, the CB500F is a motorcycle that looks great while still providing incredible value and performance. New Matte Gray Metallic paint this year keeps things looking fresh.
- Compact Exhaust: The CB500F's exhaust system features a twin-outlet muffler and large-diameter pipes, for better power and an exhaust note you'll love every time you ride.
