Shown at the Indonesia International motor show 2016 was the 2016 Honda CBR500R, a middle-weight sports bike offering sportsbike-styling with a power rating that is both newbie friendly, but still enough to be entertaining in the twisties.
On display was a murdered-out 2016 CBR500R, a 471 cc parallel-twin fed by EFI and driving a six-speed gearbox, with vibration kept to a minimum by a counter-balancer. The twin produces 49.6 hp and 43 Nm of torque. Styling follows cues from the CBR500R’s bigger brothers, the CBR600R and CBR1000R sportsbikes.
Braking is done with single-discs front and rear, and Honda’s Pro-Link rear suspension design takes care of the back, with 41 mm diameter forks in front. Weighing in at 192 kg wet, and with a seat height of 790 mm, the CBR500R is designed to be rider-friendly and easy to ride.
Boon Siew Honda does not show the 2016 Honda CBR500R on its website – the 2013 CBR500R is still shown as its current offering, alongside the CB500F and CB500X.

are those full LEDs or still LED DRL with halogens?
Ini semua salah Boon Siew
This is the vehicle one rides to hell with.
It’d be nice if that twin came with a 270° crank. It’ll sound and behave like a v twin but an a better package.
It got Sport look but the engine lack of power.
price should near to DUKE 390.
To be frank, Honda bike design much better than Yamaha R series. Yamaha end user complaint a lot with R15 and posted in youtube for many con.
Why this bike still has no news of launching in Malaysia? The overseas rider had owned it over a half year already…why Boon Siew Honda always slowly on new bike launching like the “Flash” (the sloth in movie “Zootopia”)!?
