Minimal speedometer
The 'one button' speedo is a compact 100mm dial with negative LCD display and blue backlight; it's strikingly effective and now features a digital gear position indicator.
Side key
Like many traditional machines, the ignition is housed below the left side of the fuel tank.
Custom look
Set high up front and evocative of an earlier era, the round LED headlight, mounted with die-cast aluminium, has a striking new internal design. The indicators are now also LED.
Stop on sight
The fat 'bobber' style rims and rubber are matched nicely with a twin piston caliper up front. The rear is a single piston type and the two-channel system ABS brakes, come as standard.
Honda Naked CMX Review
Feel free
The CMX500 Rebel is all about freedom for all motorcyclists, particularly A2 licence holders. With a strong, liquid-cooled, parallel twin-cylinder engine cradled in low chassis and updated suspension, lighting, comfort and instruments, it's a stunning looking bike - a blank canvas - and one that's ready for whatever your imagination has in store for it.
An easy ride
Powered by a proven parallel twin-cylinder engine, the response is friendly, smooth and linear - ideal if you're stepping up from a smaller bike. Thanks to a new exhaust, it's also now EURO5 compliant, while the addition of an assist-and-slipper clutch aids gearchanges with a 30% lighter lever feel. The riding position is relaxed as you sit, arms outstretched, into the low seat height, ready for the highway. Even at low speed, the Rebel remains comfortable and easy to manage.
Low rider
Moving away from the high rpm-focused performance of the CBR500R, a revised PGM-FI fuel injection map has given the Rebel's engine a totally different character. It has beefy, bottom-end output with more muscular torque of 43.2Nm@ 6,000rpm and - combined with peak power of 34kW @ 8,500rpm - provides satisfying acceleration and strong cruising performance.
