Gotta say that Honda's reliability is the king. My CBR 150R with 50,000km on her and she performs like the first day I have her.
my uncles 100cc yamaha also got more than 50k and the only thing that stopped working is the odometer
I know this is an old video but hands down the best review of the CBR 500r . Just purchased one today!
I'm very impressed, the tail section looks awesome and the LCD display is something neat you don't see on these low end bikes. Thumbs up to honda!
I too am a Honda Fanboy don’t worry
@DOGS LOL ?
This is the motorcycle that got me back into riding. I own a Pearl White 2016 CBR500R ABS and I couldn't be any more happier. It's really fun to ride around and often get complimented on the looks of it. Been riding it since August commuting and it's perfect for that. I haven't had a problem with the brakes at all as I thought they were good already. The only thing that I had a problem was highway riding which tucking would help. Every week I also go 2 up with it and it handles it with no issues. I absolutely love my bike!
Coming from a person who owns one... The dash rattles at a certain rpm but a rubber spacer fixes it and it sounds better at higher revs. The wind sucks, get a different windscreen. It's an awesome starter bike you won't get bored of quick. Brakes could be better but not terrible.
Great video as always btw
Bl4CKBiRd1 tops out at 110/: not bored but tired if getting burnt by 600s +
Does it have a gear indicator??
Huey Freeman no it doesn't
THX
It feels like a twin cylinder because it is... It's a parallel twin.... Just saying lol.
That's what I was about to say haha
Was thinking exactly this 😂
I have been waiting for you to first ride this for so long! thank-you chase, it's reassuring how much you like it
Thanks Chase. This Video definitely helped me pull the trigger on my 2016 Honda CBR 500R!
Had mine for 2 months now and the brakes do bed in after about 200 miles for a much better bite on initial pull. Swapped the standard exhaust for XIL Sport slip on and makes a cleaner note now. Great MPG even when giving it a bit of a twist.
Great review!
BTW My honda bike has TONS of character!!
VFR Baby!
Zoe Gardiner
I had an 86VFR750... looking at a 2014VFR800.... seriously miss my VFR....
You created the character for your bike and I'm in love with Honda since i started watching your videos, and also cycle cruza had some impact too 🤭 but mainly coz of you, you made the characters and you made us like your bikes, if imma start riding it's because of you and because you made me love motorcycles, especially hondas
I feel like it’s something people say about Hondas, but not having owned one.
@@StratfordWingRider I was all Honda til I rode a kawi....now I see what they mean....Honda makes the slowest bikes and stuff but they are well rounded
Saw this video when you first uploaded it. I was searching for my first bike at the time. I remember seeing the updated 500r look for the and thought, this is the bike i want. Bought the bike a month later and never regretted it! :D Thanks Chase!
dude ive been watching your channel for 4 years bro keep up the good work
Love this review! Had the fortune of riding the naked version of this bike when I took my license. It's an incredible package.
I think the reason few people talk about it is because 1, it doesn't fit with the 600 and 650 class bikes due to power and cost. That means it falls closer to the 300 range, but these are smaller and Honda already has a CBR 300R so whenever tests are made with the Ninja and R3, it's always the little brother 300R that gets chosen, and thus very few people ever get to know this bike. I personally think it's the absolutely best option for beginners. It has great torque down low and its easily accessible power fits its looks so well, especially if you do a lot of city riding or twisties. I remember some of the first times I tried it, it was pulling great in second all the way near redline. I changed up tp 3rd, expecting it to have less pull, but it fell right down low in the revs where all the power was, and it pulled just as hard as in 2nd I nearly slid off and had to grab the handlebars so tight xD I will always recommend this bike to anyone who are getting into motorcycles, or even seasoned riders who want a fun, easy to ride commuter bike that looks like smoke and thunder!
Bought the wife this bike back in April. She's 5'2" and a whole 130 pounds and has never ridden. She's doing great. Two Bros. exhaust sounds great on it. The brakes do get better with time for sure and with ABS, they are just right. Power is very linear and fantastic. Vagabond Motorsports makes an incredible fender eliminator kit for it and T-Rex Racing makes a bolt-on no fairing cut frame slider that looks very good on the bike as well. I would definitely recommend this bike over a 300. Its power is linear and gives you enough to get out of trouble vs. the 300's that have issue getting out of their own way.
Sam Iam hello, which one do you think id better ninja 400 or cbr500?
Vince Bruno , there is actually a video i just watched done a month ago, type in battle of the light weight motorcycle. Something like that. They prefered the ninja 400.
3 years strong on my 500. Awesome all-around "lets go" kind of bike. Even after the damage of multiple attempted thefts and drops, she still just keeps pushing. Definitely not a super sport, but still capable.
so glad you finally did a cbr500. I've been learning in a 2015 model and love this new design
Im fairly certain the 500R has been out a couple years.
***** is a cool bike, but i prefer the VFR 400, RVF400 and 400RR guess I just like older hondas, but i might look into getting one of these.
Yep, my wife rides one. Nice bike for beginners or small stature ladies, or people who don't want the high revving madness. this bike is tuned for midrange. Redline is 8900.
My buddy at work has a 2015 CBR 500R in black.
FirebladePilot that's the one with the ABS brake system, the black one and the white one are the only ones that comes with ABS
Ro'nell Hig Cool. Thanks for the tip Ro'nell!
Nice review, Chase, love my '17 cbr500r! Just bought mine a couple months ago, first ever bike.
I've got a 2015 cbr500r and I absolutely love it for my first sports bike. I get nothing but compliments everyday on it and it is fun to ride! highly recommend!
Got my cbr500r 16' 3 months back and i've been waiting for the first ride on it. Hit all the pros/cons i held personally. Overall its a solid entry-level package, i don't regret buying it as my first bike at all.
Best beginner bike out there.
Tyronne Simmons kawasaki ninja 400?
@@RCGJR_ has more power, and ya got honda premium feel throughout the bike ;) i've owned both, found the honda to be much more usable and fun
Yayyy this is one of the ones I'm contemplating getting for my first
i have had one for 3 months and still fucking love it dont know y im watching this........ cuz i own one. but yea get one fucking awesome.
Volltek The Bear I got an R6 for my first and I must say Although I don't regret buying an R6 I tell you get the 500 she's competitive at high speeds but doesn't have so much torque that you'll end ur life in the power band haha
Em_ily. no get the h2
it lacks a little power though
I second this notion.
Iloved it thanks for the first ride Chase ive been requesting this bike for months now because this is the bike im planning on being my first sport bike thanks again and keep these amazing videos coming.
Finally!! I was hoping you'd test ride this! Thanks Chase!!
You should really ride by a camera to show your body position. The front cam helps but it's still not really displaying it.
Yup, I've been doubting some bikes because of the body position and most videos don't show how the person looks while riding. It'd be awesome if chase did that, it'll help a lot when trying to choose a bike
Ja jeweet if you want to see body position go to a bike shop and sit on the bikes and see if you like it
Dylan Velez
I get this one in matte black next month. I CANT CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT.
Thank you for reviewing this bike. I have been waiting awhile for your opinion. I have been wanting this bike for awhile, but you have solidified my choice and desire for one.
Best advice ever! The bike looked so amazing that I ended up purchasing the pearl white one and I love it! As a beginner bike, it really is a forgiving bike. Shoot, I get tons of head turns and thumbs up. Thanks Chase, stay golden!
500cc seems like a perfect sporty road bike displacement. I hope manufacturers continue developing small bikes and people stop looking at them like just beginner bikes but also as fun, super agile sports bikes you can rev the balls off on streets without going million miles an hour (ofc, if the manufacturers provide the goodies)
not to mention the amazing economy on this thing.
I agree. I sold my 636 before I moved and wanted another bike to putz around on and just go for rides, and now am looking at this bike.
@@alkhatibziad723 Went from Ninja 250 to FZ6, FZ6R, and the '19 CBR500R is now my current bike. It has the perfect engine characteristics for those of us who live in the real world. Getting 3.0 L/100km (75-85 US mpg), and inexpensive insurance.
@@Thirsty_Fox Or 0,7926023778 gallon / 100km
Test ride the new cbr650f it's got alot of low end torque so it's quicker than the r6 and zx6r off the line but in higher end it's slower. But hey who the hell is going to redline in every gear on public roads?!
Taijean Moodie ....me...
Taijean Moodie Max Wrist cough cough
I would definitely love to see a CBR 650F. I would love to see a VFR 800 too. plenty of low end V4 power plus Vtec.
I wish Honda brings back the vfr 400! :D
How....How are you still alive?!
I just bought my 2016 cbr 500r, and came back to look at your review. Spot on, with the review.I'm a new rider, really enjoying the bike. I also, highly recommend it.
Just bought mine, I’m so excited to ride it!
This bike is for the uk regulations for an A2 license, its up to the top of the 47bhp 35kw a2 regs so it doesn't need to be restricted.
Same for the Queensland, Australia market and our RE license or LAMS program in my state. Not sure what the other states have.
but you have to buy a new bike when you get the full licence
Yeah but you have the A2 license for 2 years. It's not like you'll only have the bike for 2 weeks.
Also LAMS in NSW.
On that note, the CBR125R has been removed except for the 2004 make ?!
akayukilucifel in the uk we havs cbr 125rs the newer models ... i own one its like a mini 500r but with a single headlight and fairings , powers low end , brakes are meh but its solid and does everything you want even with wind in your face until you tuck
There is no other bike this usable and that gets 65-70 MPG. There is the CB500F and CB500X which are the same bike but with different looks. Not sure what the complaint with the seat is because it's an awesome long distance seat. Even the genuine Honda parts are extremely cheap so it's cheap to repair too. The ultimate commuter.
I ride a 1988 Ninja 500 and I absolutely love it. It is so fast off the line and even in 6th gear on the highway it has passing power.
Thanks for your informative enthusiasm man. I appreciate you keeping me awake watching this vid.
2:26 Honda did not stop making the CBR600RR. They stopped making it over seas, but it is still available in the states. The 2017 model year has been announced and is on Honda's website.
The CBR600RR was NOT stopped anywhere....the 500R is design for different country regulations
C2w you should do a top favorite bikes of 2016 vid I think it would be a good go to vid if someone was looking into bikes
Started on a 2014 Honda CBR500r and I moved up to an 2016 Yamaha FZ09 just recently. I loved my 500r!
finally chase I've been waiting for years for you to do this.......
chase could you do a cbr650f review? let us know how it compares to the kawasaki 650 and the honda cbr 500r. (awesome review by the way)
Yes, I would love to see that review as well. I very much would like to see how they compare.
Yoshua Lopez yes chase, please do a CBR650F review. I have the 500r and am thinking about moving into a 650F (I4, bigger displacement etc) want to know if it's worth the upgrade.
Mrfatpocket16 it is a great bike I have a 2016 and love it it has a power band around 5-6K my only dislike is the aggressive engine braking
Like this if he should do a Honda 500f comparison
-CB 500f
And the 500X
Yea forgot about the 500X
i own a CB500F and completely agree about the brakes
It's literally the exact same bike just different fairings
IVE been waiting for this video! Thank you!
I will probably buy this 2016 honda cbr500r for the new year ~ upgrading from a ninja 300!
Cheers from Canada!
I purchased a 2013 Honda CBR500R not too long ago, and I personally love it. You're absolutely right about getting more wind than what's expected, especially since I'm 6'2". Other than that, I've had no issues with it.
I've been waiting for this video for 2 years....
I've been waiting for this comment for 2 years.
@@DeiHarper9361 i’ve been waiting for this reply for 2 years.
Chase please try the 2019 one. :)
I want one! Seems like a really nice mix of comfortable and approachable riding
Watched this video. Getting a 500r on Saturday. So excited!!
Well looks like this is gunna be my first bike now.
can't hate on fake carbon fiber. when u got fake wood and bricks in ur UMG lol. great video keep them up 👊
Thanks to this video I bought a CBR500 as an upgrade to my first bike. While I don't own it anymore, looking back at old footage I recorded on it really makes me miss it!
Absolutely cracking bike! Took one out recently and loved it, can push it without losing license, super engaging
Nice Ducati!
First ride on the CBR650F! Please
This is a must
Tigaboss777 - I just bought one, and I can tell you it's awesome.
Karl Hungus - ya I have it now and love it very much. I really want to know what chase thinks about it. I think he will love it.
Tigaboss777 - Did you upgrade from the 500? I did.
Karl Hungus - no I upgraded from the cbr250
I had he 2014 and the styling got soooo much meaner this year, its a nice bump from those not wanting to start on a 300, great way to really learn and get comfortable with riding
I love how much positivity you have towards this bike. I bought a 2013 cbr500r back in 2014 as my first bike and rode it for 4 or so years before selling it. Selling it was a huge mistake. Anyway I am now doing research on possible upgrades. I want to stay with Honda because of that experience with the cbr500r.. but I don't know if anything can really compare. The Cbr650r is an inline engine, heavier, and has high rev performance. My other option would be the 1000RR but I really don't want to s*** my pants or get myself killed.
You should ride the 2019 one chase😉
He should ride the 2020 one
He should ride the 2021 one
He should ride the 2022 one
Please do a first ride on KTM rc390.
I had a 2013 Cbr500r for my first bike and it was amazing! Made it super easy transitioning into a 600 class sportbike.
The 500f is on my list of bikes to look at for my first bike. Thank you for doing this review!
Bought one couple months ago for a second bike...its a hoot in the twisties...great commuter bike to...
I have a video of it on my channel...Arkansas dragon 2016...just click on the thumb nail...
I just bought the exact same one he rides in the video.. same color an everything. When it warms up I'll take it up to it's full speed.
congrats on the new bike....ride safe...
Thanks, I'll make sure to be as safe as possible.
Arkansas Motorcycle Rides is it like he said, hard to drive on the highway because of the wind?
When is that ZX14R going to get first ride?
Q. Anyui exactly hope he will doing it
Q. Anyui when he turns 50.
Q. Anyui I think I saw one in the glamour shots
Based on his Hayabusa ride he will just ride a few feet, scream get scared and drive back to the dealer.
Then i guess he is not prepare for a first ride of ninja h2.
First time watching and wow I must say,awesome editing, and everything, keep it up👌
I went in this video so hyped because i just did my A2 driving test and Im now looking for a new sport bike. So ty chase and keep up the good work
I've found my first bike.
NICE MY BIKE IN THIS VIDEO :D Guys BUY THIS BIKE IF YOUR A BEGINNER
REDBLADE Okay I am going to buy this for first bike
Buddy of mine has this as his first bike I rode it as a semi experienced rider and really enjoyed it. Well rounded fun bike
I have a 2015 CBR500R the 2016 model is just a remake. It is my first bike and I love it. The breaks do get better and as you get use to the bike you can better time them. I have had mine for about two months now and already put 700+ miles on it.
2019 cbr500r plss
Thank god, this will settle many way too lengthy arguments about the best beginner bike for a while...
I need to make "*C2W Approved Learner" stickers and start putting those on bikes in dealerships..
ElectroMoto ninja 650 is imo best stater bike. the 500r is slow and will be outgrown way too fast. ayy least the 2014 i was looking at is
(imo) you should start on a dual sport, you have supermoto in one side and dirt bike in the other side
***** If the Ninja is just as tame and strong on the lower rpm-s being fairly light at weight at the same time, then I guess it is a contender.. But I'm really not an informed person enough to comment on this issue, as I've never ridden anything less than 600cc-s..
SergioRC The Gamer I bet most don't dare to start on a bike they can barely touch the ground on.. And risk going over the bars the first time they emergency brake... Well, anyway, it took me a good 10 months before I was bold enough to sit on one... :D
ElectroMoto good point
80 hp 200kg bike is the perfect starter bike! NOT... how about starting on a 20hp 140kg one so beginners dont get killed.
Yes! Thanks Chase! Been waiting to see if you'd come out with a cbr500r first ride. After I watch this I'll have a good idea wether I want a r3 or this. Keep up the great work. Love your channel!
What you end up getting
@@dgrimey3744 nothing
i just bought a 2013 CB500X, my first bike other than a wr250r dual sport, only ridden it short distance but so far i am impressed!!
in Australia pretty sure the CBR 500R is a lams bike not as fast as good as a 600RR
it was build for the euro a2 license
Yamaha Rider J yes. its heaven for guys in the UK like me who cant get a 600. this is perfect, torquey and looks bloody awesome
Haha yep. Im from Sydney same problems facing with too lol
ride a hyosung 650
Yeap, its LAMS approved and aimed at the learner market.
FINALY MORE MATES so anyone from sa
and yes its not as fast but i can keep up with 800 harlys and 650 hysong sport
That bike looks like a wolf. Then you hear it and you realize that is a puppy. And a Grom tac? Rly Honda??
MatojxR1 lol, it was the 500 tach first, then they saved money and used it on the grom when it came out ;)
standaard exhaust, just put aftermarket on it and it's done
lol, they did the same with CBR650's taillight, it's on the Grom too.
MatojxR1 The grom got its tac from the 500r
Hope you like it because both the Groms, CRF250L, CBR300/300F and the CBR500/500F/500X all use the same tach.
I've been hoping you would do one on this bike for ages😄😍
Getting this Bike Friday, I'm very excited
Chase ride some cruisers
Diavel is a cruiser ;)
The cbr500r started in 2013 I think
Suvy 12 now that you said its half the horsepower of a 600rr. It seems like ninja300 to me
The 600rr has approx 120 hp. The 500r has approx 48 hp
Bubblecaash well it's designed for beginners
Suvy 12 I know. I might get one next year, not quite sure yet.
it's for europeon motorcycle laws. you can get an A2 licence when you're 19. the restrictions are 35kw and 48bhp
I bought the 2016 CBR500R as my first bike like 3 or 4 weeks ago and I love the thing to death! It is a ton of fun to ride and makes me so happy every time I walk up to it :) I recently (like past week) bought a fender remover kit, flush lights for the front and a new exhaust and this bike is GORGEOUS!!!! :D I still have more to upgrade and change on it but slowly I am making this thing a beast of it's own class :]
SO HAPPY WITH BUYING THIS BIKE AS MY FIRST! :D
how are you liking the bike? did you outgrow it quickly?
I'll be a new rider, my dream bike is cbr600, thanks.
Great videos man keep it up, a real motivation to me!
single front brake disc, weak as fuck.
traditional forks,2 cyl,48 hp,it's pretty much a third world supersport (something like india or brazil)
why would you need 2 discs when the bikes does 170~kg or less, and ir has arround 50hp? it wont go past 90mph, and you wont race with that, whats the point then? for someone who is starting, is more than enough, you dont need more braking power
Or Europe? A2 License and stuff...
midibudu I think it tops out at 110
on the rev limiter, but if you but that bike, you wont be driving her like that, lets be real, is just a cb500f with fairings, is not a fast bike, is an awesome comuter
Excellent review and description!! Sounds like a great commuter bike!
I have waited such a long time to see a first ride on this bike
Had a 2013 CB500F and was never dissatisfied with the brakes. Good break in with good pads and it bites well enough.
Completely agree with the way you reviewed the CBR500R I have the 2017 with abs love the bike feels super light 428lb
ive been riding the 2013 model for 12 months. such a fun bike. does everything i need
Chase, I appreciate your review of this one. I bought a CB500F back in 2013 which is essentially the same bike as far as I know. It's been a great first bike, but I live in the midwest and I feel like I've outgrown it. I'm ready for a bit bike with a bit more pep in it's step. Now that you mention it, I realize just how bad the brakes are. With it being my first bike, I didn't think anything of it, but I have always been terrified of having to come to a quick stop because of that. I have yet to get the balls to wheelie it, but I've been fighting the urge to try. Keep up the good work. I've been following the channel since before I picked up my bike and enjoy the content you put out, especially the first rides.
Nice review and thanks.
I think I'm gonna buy one for my next bike.
Getting one as my first bike on january, i honestly can't wait
WUHUUUUU!!! I've been waiting for this! :D
Omg thank you so much chase I've been waiting for this review! Hahah
just bought a 2014 model for my first bike can't wait to pick it up on friday!
I own one, it's amazing. I notice the brakes were a bit weak at first as well, which was fixed by adjusting the front suspension to be stiffer. I look forward to riding it from MN to VA next spring.
Oh yes I was waiting for this for ages!
I love being able to recognize Hwy 9 going toward Alpharetta
you've literally explained every honda ever made.. Built to last, not the fastest but good at everything. Great video loving these first rides. You should do one with Dan one upping
This video is absolutely perfect in terms of timing because I'm looking to buy this bike within the next 2 months.
I just bought the Cbr500r 2017 model in black and orange colour combination and i am a beginner rider with A2 license in Europe. Its a fantastic bike so far an one of the "big" ones in its category. I really recommend it if you are starting now you will not get board of it!!
I have a 2014 cbr500r with abs and the braking is a lot better with the abs which is expected. I absolutely love my bike! My first one and I bought it myself! I would recommend it to anyone wanting a bike to commute, have some power, and want great mileage! I will be keeping my bike forever!
I had a 2013 these bikes are great..you can get some great deals on them. Just a great all around bike.
