Choose Your Next Adventure
Honda’s lineup of Adventure motorcycles perform double duty. Great, virtually wherever you decide to take it, they perform from your office to your campsite. Whether traveling short or long distances, Honda Adventure bikes will see you through the trip.
Comfortable Even Over Long Rides
Ergonomics were carefully configured to offer an unrestricted riding position that allows easy maneuvering in town and excellent comfort during long-distance highway trips.
Adventure With Available Assist Slipper Clutch
Honda Adventure models have an available Assist Slipper Clutch to put the ease into your adventure. The aluminum clutch centre and pressure plate use assist cams to ease upshifts, and slipper cams to help prevent wheel lock-up during deceleration and downshifting.
The DOHC liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine uses a square bore & stroke of 67 mm x 66.8 mm for an optimum combination of strong low-end torque and excellent top-end power and performance.
Assist Slipper Clutch
Not only does the assist slipper clutch help to prevent rear-wheel lockup on downshifts, it also reduces effort at the lever by almost half, helping to reduce rider fatigue particularly in city traffic or on long rides.
Exhaust system
The exhaust system features dual exit pipes resulting in improved exhaust flow, extra power and a sportier-sounding edge to the exhaust note.
The lightweight diamond-shaped steel frame was designed to allow a certain degree of yield, which enables it to better respond to changes in the road surface and to transmit just the right amount of feedback to the rider.
Suspension Dynamics
For even better off-road performance and overall comfort, the front suspension features Showa 41mm Separate Function Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) USD forks. The rear suspension provides more to compliment the front suspension. A single-tube rear shock helps ensure excellent suspension response and better heat dissipation.
Wheels & Tires
The lightweight cast aluminum wheels, large 19-inch front wheel and aggressive front and rear tires help to make the NX500 even better at handling rough surfaces and contribute to the bike’s excellent manoeuvrability.
Powerful Braking
Powerful dual disc brakes with radial-mounted calipers up front and a single-piston caliper at the back are designed to provide strong but easily controlled stopping power – even in difficult conditions. Equipped with sophisticated Honda ABS.
