Honda CB500X 2021 advice

Post by onslowe »

Hi, just put the deposit down on a 2021 CB500X and wonder if there are any forum members with experience of the bike who can offer any sound advice regarding must have accessories. It already has hand and engine guards, heated grips and a centre stand but will need pannier rails and a hugger for starters, with maybe some suspension mods later on. I realise its a bit tame for most forum members and is not an off roader but I wanted a B and C road bike for the Dales and Moors rather than full on enduro machine and am hoping its a Jack of all trades. I have uploaded a picture of the same colour bike from the net as mine is awaiting delivery from the dealer. Thanks in advance.

Sell one kidney and send it to RallyRaid. Jokes aside, i think it's a great machine. Whether long distance, or mild offroad. Decent tyres, stiffer spring... Having downsized myself from 1000cc 4cylinder, to 650 twin, i understand why people do it. If i wanted to spend more ( than 2007 versys 650 ), i 'd go for cb500x.

I’ve had 2, great bikes & easy to add all you’ll need in the way of extras, you seem to have got most of what you need already?
The SW Motech catalogue ia a good starting point!
***just like Britney Spears oops I did it again……sold the Scrambler & as of now there may not be a replacement***
