Description
The CMX500 ‘S Edition' showcases a different and new direction for the CMX range, one that many have been anticipating for quite some time. The CMX S Edition has a set of factory-fitted accessories including; a headlight cowl, all-black fork covers and gaiters, plus a diamond-stitch style seat. Now more than ever, you can really express yourself on a CMX.
The CMX ‘S Edition’ is available in Matte Axis Grey Metallic and comes with the following factory fit accessories: headlight cowl with smoke screen, retro front fork covers and gaiters and a special diamond-stitch style seat.
Here's a chance for Honda's designers to take a functional part of the motorcycle and make it look extra cool. The aluminium subframe/fender mounts are strong, subtle, light, and provide a solid foundation for the optional/removable passenger seat
One of the key items in motorcycle design is the fuel tank. Holding 11.2L, the CMX's iconic fuel-tank shape is timeless, but functionally it also teams up with the bikes great fuel efficiency to give you plenty of range.
Twin-cylinder engines are a great choice for a machine like the CMX. Honda twins are famous for their versatility and the 471cc engine in the CMX is one of our best ever. The parallel-twin engine is narrow, which helps reduce overall bike size. Plus, it offers lots of low-rpm torque, but plenty of higher-rpm performance.
A lot of todays motorcycles look great standing still, but disappoint once the road gets twisty. At Honda, we set high standards for the way all our bikes handle and feel, and the CMX is a perfect example we've paid just as much attention to the way this bike corners and handles as we have its knockout styling.
Cast wheels front and rear are light, practical, easy to keep clean and give the CMX a look that tells you this is not built like a retro machine. The wide rims and tyres add to the bike's appearance, too.
The CMXs low, fat 16-inch rear tire gives you plenty of grip, and helps lower the bikes overall seat height and stance. It looks tough, too.
