I have the OEM windscreen and grips and am open to pricing changes depending on which windshield the bike sells with.

This a great running motorcycle and I have been on multiple 300+ mile trips with it. Never been dropped in my ownership of it. Has some imperfections in the tank paint due to my changing the handlebar levers back to stock. I have only had it for a few months and I am selling it because I want to upgrade to a bike that fits me and my passenger better.

CB500X - General Chat / Seat differences '13-'15 vs '16-'18 vs '19

« on: February 14, 2019, 05:43:53 PM »

Are there differences between the CB500X OEM seats for 2013-2015, 2016-2018, and 2019? I know Honda narrowed the front of the seat for the new 2019 model. I could swear there are differences in forward lean angles between pre-facelift bikes (15 and older) and post ('16-'18), but maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me. Has anyone noticed a difference in shape, build quality, padding, etc.? Thanks.

Hello all,

Just bought a 2014 CB500X in August after much research of mid size adventure bikes. Sitting in the saddle the first time, I instantly felt this would be the right bike for me. I have put a few hundred miles on the bike so far and have taken 320ish mile trip to just over the Mississippi River and back.

Started out at 17 taught by my dad on a 2003 Harley-Davidson Road King, and I rode that for about 5 years. Now I am back into riding after about 5 years, and wanted a bike that sat more upright and could do a little bit of everything. Loving it so far.
