That's exactly why I'm making these haha, when I was looking to buy this bike I couldnt believe how hard it was to find content about it, its certainly a hidden gem.
Had mine a year - fitted crg framesliders- r&g adjustable shorty levers and about to fit akro full exhaust system with power commander - well fast enough but we always want more!! 5 secs o- 60- happy riding!
Frame slider are next on the list. Full akra system? Noice, that will sound great. For exhaust I'm looking at a scorpion slip on, or SC project when it comes. But yeah 0-60 didn't go so well here, will have to do another when I've run it in a little more :) thanks for the sub!
Yeah scenery is great for sure and got some nice bends too :) but yeah potholes around my area are rediculous, annoying in a car, potentially fatal on a bike :/
Good vids mate keep it up, excited to hear what it’s like after first service considering this as my a2 bike as a pose to a bigger bike that may be restricted down, as I feel the bigger bike won’t feel natural due to restrictor and I’d rather ride the bike to it’s full position and boi the looks on the cbr500r !
Thanks man 😀 yeah the service probably won't be for another few weeks with all that's going on unfortunately. Yeah I had that dillema or whether to go for a restricted or just an actual a2 bike. I decided in the end that id rather have a bike that I can ride to its full potential and grow my skill with, then just go up to a bigger bike once I've got my full license. Only thing about restricted bikes is your gonna have a heavier bike too, which is something to keep in mind. If you've got any specific questions,I'll be happy to answer them here or in my next video. Cheers!
Parallel Finn , cheers mate, you must get a akropovic slip on though, it’s not ignorantly loud but makes the bike look even sexier, I’d definitely keep the baffle in as I’m not a fan of loud pipes 😂 and it’s only £500, for a akro that are usually like 1k that’s a deal ☝🏻
I have the 2018 Honda cbr500r. So far is a wonderful machine for me but I do not like the wind screen. You mentioned in this video about a higher screen , can you tell me which windscreen it is as I cannot find anything for this bike for a taller screen.
Hi if you go onto this website www.honda.co.uk/motorcycles/my-bike/accessory-brochures.html And download the superbike accessory brochure, the higher windscreen is in there, I cant find anywhere else online for the official honda one. It seems the only place you can get the official one is through honda dealership themselves. There are also third party ones on sites like aliexpress etc. Hope this helps.
Keep it mellow until the first service like you say...then rip the tits off of it. I rode my 500f HARD and it loved it. Lives it's best life when it's bouncing off the redline. Awesome stuff!
Parallel Finn should be possible. If your lucky like me and are a small guy with 65kg it will go faster than one with 110kg. If im lucky it could possible go for 4 possible even a little less with fast and perfect shifting
Apparently this cbr’s 0-60 takes over 16 mins. 🙈🙈🙈 Pro tip, never roll threw mud before u start, never give excuses... like u need to change the oil... and always get to the point quickly in any video. Who cares if ur time was slower. Enjoy ur bike, don’t be nervous (too much heavy breathing) and just go for it.
ipolarbird2 I watched the 0-60 part that’s what I clicked for? And this guy did needless gear shifts I have same bike and it does 60 in 2nd no need to shift to 5th
0-60 at 16:22
Edit: my 0-60 is slow for multiple reasons stated in the video.
Yes finally someone making consistent content on this bike, keep it up !

I wouldn't bother with a 0-60 until you are run in - I found my engine loosened up after about 1500 miles so you wouldn't get a good figure anyway.

Good work mate! You got some nice scenic routes up there. Road surface is pants like down here lol. Thumbs 👍

Nice video man
As soon as I heard “I hope you can hear what the fuck I’m saying” I dropped a like😂😂😂😂😂
Haha there's nothing worse than recording a whole video only to find out you were just speaking to yourself the whole time 😂😂

@@parallelfinn well that's great thank you for the return contact. Even our Honda dealer in Ontario Canada did not put me on to this. Thanks again
looks like you shifted way to early for a good 0-60.
Yeah i agree man, ill most likely redo the 0-60 some time soon, this was wayyy too slow.
Nice video. Less swearing would be even better
do the 0 to 60 when you are well run in!
Keep it mellow until the first service like you say...then rip the tits off of it. I rode my 500f HARD and it loved it. Lives it's best life when it's bouncing off the redline.
Awesome stuff!
Haha yeah I'm looking forward to that, I don't like feeling guilty everytime I slip over 6k for a second.
👍
and you were in perth :)
Yessir :D
Have the same bike and i think it would do 4-5 seconds, seems like you did not redline it
Yeah I looked it up after, the 0-60 is supposed to be around 5 seconds. I will try to hit that after my first service, so then I can redline it
Parallel Finn should be possible. If your lucky like me and are a small guy with 65kg it will go faster than one with 110kg. If im lucky it could possible go for 4 possible even a little less with fast and perfect shifting
how many miles did you do on a 125cc before doing your a2?
Probably around 2-3k to be honest. Now at 6k on this one.
Also what 125 did you have ?
I had a Lexmoto Lowride. A little cheap cruiser style bike, was pretty sketchy though 😅
Parallel Finn the reliability difference and ride quality must be a massive change 👍🏻
should be about 5 secs
Apparently this cbr’s 0-60 takes over 16 mins. 🙈🙈🙈

UA-cam will tell you off for swearing, doesn't bother me but it might some people, just saying!
not a proper 0-60 would have smoked him on my Majesty
I'll be doing a retry soon :p I'm aware this wasn't a very good 0-60.
Bullshit click bait
Relax yaself
Lmao ur 0-60 was trash 😂😂😂
Thank you x
Your mom gae
Parallel Finn dude seriously 😂these bikes can do 0-60 in 4.2, how did you get double that? 😂
@@nathangreen6286 I feel like you haven't watched the video almost at all
