2013 Honda CBR500RA ABS

An all-new design, the CB500R is built with a high-performance, liquid-cooled 500cc DOHC parallel-twin engine that offers plenty of accessible power. Honda twins have always been some of the best motorcycle engines anywhere reliable, efficient, and fun to ride. The CBR500RA ABS offers a riding position that’s a touch more sporting, but not too aggressive, whether you’re commuting or carving the canyons. The CBR500RA ABS has a full line of available Honda Genuine Accessories including a sport screen, color-matched passenger seat cowl, and carbon-look accents. Its combination of lightweight and rider-friendly engine makes the CBR500RA ABS a great choice for commuting, weekend rides, or just getting out and having fun. Plus, its lower seat height makes it easier to get your feet on the ground when you stop. A full LCD screen features a digital speedometer and tachometer and more, including a clock, odometer, trip meter, real-time and average fuel consumption meters, and illuminated engine diagnostic indicators. Twin 55-watt H7 halogen headlights and multi-facet reflectors on the CBR500RA ABS give the front end a unique look and

also project plenty of light on the road for visibility. This aerodynamic bodywork also provides significant advantages in air management for added rider comfort, along with a low drag coefficient and effective cooling. Honda twins are famous for their versatility, and the new CBR500RA ABS engine is one of our best ever. Using the same piston bore size as our CBR600RR sportbike, the parallel-twin engine offers accessible performance across all RPM ranges. Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) continuously monitors several variables to ensure the correct fuel mixture is delivered for the existing riding and atmospheric conditions for a crisp throttle response throughout a wide variety of riding. The new CBR500RA ABS offers a step seat with a low height. Perfect for around-town riding or winding roads, it also offers plenty of room for a passenger, and is specially designed to fit a wide range of riders. A motorcycle’s frame is the basis for its handling. A new take on a classic construction, the CBR500RA ABS’s diamond-shaped 35mm steel-tube mainframe ties to the engine with four mounts, offering a rock-solid foundation for a superior ride and handling.
