Buyer's Guide > CBR500R
Colours shown may not be available in Canada.
The CBR500R has improved midrange horsepower and torque for 2019, as the timing and exhaust and intake are all tweaked. Peak horsepower isn't changed, though. Honda also built in a new assist/slipper clutch, and bolted on a new LCD dash with gear indicator. LED headlights are standard, there's a new rear shock, and the riding position is more sporty. There are also some styling changes.
