Hello everyone, welcome back to 2Street
A few days ago, Duc Toc Dai sent you a quick test and evaluation of the CBR500R
And to continue with the lineup of the same 500 units from Honda Big Bike
I will finally make a quick test and evaluation of the CB500F
Well, without further ado, because it's very sunny
Let's get started!
First of all, I would like to thank the Honda Big Bike store in Hanoi for letting me borrow this car to make this review video
I would like to note that this car is a test drive and this color will not be sold in Hanoi
We will only have black and red colors, and this blue and white color will only be available on demo cars
So if you like this color, it may be a bit black, we will have to look for suppliers outside
First of all, this car shares quite a lot with the CBR500R
The relationship between these two cars is like the CB650R and CBR650R
Basically, a sport and a naked
The difference is up to 80% and without the fairing, this car is the same
If you look closely, you can see that there are quite a lot of similarities with the CBR500R
For example, the chassis, the engine, the tail, the tail
As I said, up to 80% and it's just a little different, it removes the fairing and we have two windshields
I think these two windshields are quite reasonable because it helps the car look thicker
Because this CB500F is a car that looks a bit thin, a bit thin
Another thing that is shared in the design of these two cars is that the lines are carved to create a strong feeling, a bear feeling on the two cars
On this CB500F, we can see the headlight, this headlight, many foreign bikers call it Spartan Headlight
Speaking of NOMNASA, it is designed based on the helmet of the Spartan soldier in the movie 300
If you have seen it, you can imagine it, if you haven't seen it, I will put a picture around here
I don't know if you guys feel the same as I do, but I think it's pretty much the same
If the CBR500R is a sport car, then this CB500F is more of a streetfighter
However, there is one point that I am not very satisfied with, although it has a lot of bulging lines on the car
But because the overall design of this car is a bit thin, a bit small
So it doesn't look very harmonious
Speaking of aesthetics, this is my personal opinion, whether it is beautiful or ugly depends on each person
I think this car has a fair and objective assessment, it has a design that can be called safe at this time
It's not beautiful, but it's not too ugly
But in general, if you don't like the appearance, you can see that this CB500F has a so-called OK appearance
This car will also bring us a very different sitting posture with the CBR500R
Of course, a naked car will never sit more comfortably than a sport car
We can see that my sitting posture is quite straight
And the height of this car is only about 789-790mm
So with the general body of Vietnamese people, it is quite easy to sit and drive
You can see that I am sitting and because the wheelbase is a bit flat, so I will be a bit stiff
And if we put it upright, I can stand up with one leg, which is quite comfortable
In general, in terms of design and sitting posture, there are some points that I want to share
I want to share directly with the engine and the operation
This is a point that I think it has more to say than the CBR500R
It brings a very different experience, although these two cars share the same engine, the 471cc 2-cylinder engine
However, this car has been modified a bit and it allows you to kick in earlier than the CBR500R
Plus a few more points above and bring us a completely different driving experience
From the sitting posture, it brings us a more comfortable feeling when driving on the street or even on the main road
In addition, this car does not have a fairing or a jacket, so the weight of the car is lighter
I remember correctly that the weight of this car is about 190kg and it is really light
When driving on the street, I have a feeling that this car is very agile, really suitable for the streets of Vietnam, the traffic is quite crowded and often closed
Driving this car, I don't feel tired at all, it's very light and the feeling of driving is extremely light
I feel that the weight distribution of this Honda CB500F is quite good, the ratio is almost 50-50
So when I sit and drive, I experience on the street, for example, the shaking of the wheels, the feeling of driving through the bumps is very pleasant
Just shake it lightly and the car can do what I want
To know more about the performance of this engine, you can watch the review of the CBR500R of Duc Toc Dai
I just want to share the differences when driving on this CB500F
As I said, this car has a different sitting posture, it is lighter and it is adjusted to kick in earlier
So the driving feeling when driving this car is quite good
This car will bring us a relatively exciting feeling in the low and mid-range
Why do I call it relatively exciting?
Because we all know that Honda is usually a car that focuses on quietness and smoothness
It is not focused on shaking the head or shaking the head
This car brings excitement but it is still Honda, it is still smoothness and quietness
However, it still brings us a strong enough pulling force and is very suitable for the city
Like big cities like Hanoi now, the streets are crowded and need fast and safe bumps
This car can fully meet
In fact, I can go from 0 to 100 km per hour quite quickly
This car sounds like Honda, I think it's slow, but no
This CB500F will be relatively fast
In addition, it has a slipper clutch, so the quick acceleration to slow down will give us a safer feeling
Another difference is that the feeling of driving this CB500F is better
Personally, I think the CBR500R is better because of the body
The body used on this CB500F is Michelin Road 5
And it has a much better performance than the SportMax body on the CBR500R
Actually, when I experienced from the Honda BigBike for Mr. Thu to come here to shoot a video for you
I did some deep turns, the turns were a bit tight
It's so good, guys, it's extremely on the road
And the feeling when a turn brings us back is very confident
So I think this car is for those who have a bit of a rough driving style
If you like fast turns, you can be confident with this body
It's really good and this is a point I really like when experiencing this CB500F
To talk about this CB500F, I think this is another car that is very suitable for beginners
And it also has a special point that it will bring us a certain excitement in the long turns from low to medium
Usually, the cars for beginners, especially Honda's cars
It will usually have a sense of smoothness, calmness, and the feeling of going from the beginning to the end
But this car can still bring such excitement
Because the engine has been modified to be able to rev as soon as possible
From more than 3,000 to 6,500 revs is when the engine revs, we can feel the excitement of this car
And I think this is a very suitable point for driving on the streets in Vietnam
When the car is crowded and we need to make fast turns
In general, with this CB500F, I don't evaluate it as a big motorized car for you to go to cafes, tours
And you can even use this car to go every day
It's light, easy to control, light
And driving this car never feels too small
About the temperature, to tell you the truth, at this time, Laos cars are like Laos cars, not Laos cars, more than Laos cars
Every car is hot, so when it comes to temperature, you may have to wait until winter to know if this car is hot or not
About the fuel consumption, I can't evaluate it exactly
But we can refer to the announcement of the company
But usually with Honda cars, I think that gasoline is not a big problem
Usually Honda cars are very fuel-efficient, and now gasoline is still cheap
With a price of 179 million VND announced by Honda Bigbike
I think this car, for a newbie, may be a worthy car for us to consider
If possible, you should go to the famous Honda Bigbike in Hanoi and try this car
And maybe the values bring the calmness, the smoothness in increasing speed, good fuel consumption, good roadholding
In addition, the torque can reach the top
It gives us a good feeling when driving this car
For those who have experience driving big SUVs and are looking for more powerful feelings
Maybe Honda CB500F is not really a suitable choice
Of course, newbies are OK
So if you want, you can go to Honda Bigbike to try it
And I would like to thank Honda Bigbike for letting me borrow this car to make this review
So what do you think of this car?
Do you think it's worth it?
