HOLY POOP! NO way! WOW!

HOLY FLAMING POOP!
WTF did honda do wrong on this one! 500CC should make 80hp!?


You fail to mention that the 2008 600RR won Sport Rider's 600cc shootout that year by a fairly healthy gap. Lol  The Triumph, which has the best power delivery curve, came in a distant, dead last.  A chart doesn't define a motorcycle.

But don't let facts get in they way.

Hi all you will be very disappointed with CBR500R as a sports bike. It have lousy front suspension (not inverted type) and useless digital display. The sub-frames looks very cheap. The CBR500R comes with a low compression cylinder and it comes with low horse power( I expect 60HP with a 500cc). After I seen the real CBR500R at the Thai expo I really feel very down because I am expecting more from Honda even it was manufacture in Thailand plant like the NSR150RR( nice 2-stroke small Cc). I myself have ridden NSR150RR, CBR400RR, NSR250 MC28 and RVF400 NC35. It was a true disappointment from Honda comparing the Bikes that I have ridden and it's weight to power ratio! Get CBR600RR instead don't waste time because when you ride a sports bike you will eventually go down to track CBR500R needs heavy modifications just to have some fun!

Honda managed to get the CBR500R, parallel twin budget bike to be the weapon of choice in the European Junior Cup — displacing the KTM 690 Duke.

So.... you clearly understand the intention of the CBR500, then.  Thumbsup

It needs one more R before I get worked up about it. If it had four Rs, hell, I'd be there with pitchforks and torches.

MORE Rs!!!!
