Sold CB500X

[marcusfordus]

Anyone looking for a sorted 500x?
I've owned from new, full service history from Grantham Honda.

Current mileage at 6031.

2023 vintage so just coming up to three years old.

Outstanding condition as everything was wax coated from new.

Extras, Oxford heated grips. Honda power socket. Renthal bar conversion with plastic handguards. Rentec rack and side rails. Fender extender.

Rally raid skidplate.

Bike is datatagged and has an unused second key.

Picture shows it in light touring guise with the throwover pannier set-up and sat-nav.

I'll be keeping the Garmin and topbox plate off it.

Located NG17 which is J28 on the M1 (1.8 mile to my house).

Price £4600.

The pictures taken on 10/02/2026 which went to the dealer for a px price against a DCT 750 Forza. (They won't be getting it!).

I have ridden more miles in 7 weeks of riding than you have covered on yours on hired cb500x's in Vietnam.
A very underrated bike in my opinion. Comfortable and frugal.
Luggage on the hired bikes were very good.
Good luck with your sale.
Great bikes.

Correct on the frugal front. If you're not in a rush it does do 100mpg as long as its Super Plus unleaded. It's quite noticeable not being E5.

Maybe some pics of the whole bike will help.

Thats a great price for your bike with the extras and low miles , I purchased a 2019 cb500x just before Xmas and if yours had been for sale then I’d have bought yours for shore .

The most uninspiring noise from an exhaust ever.

I’m guessing you’re not over impressed on the comfort front? I had the seat on mine reworked, which was a big improvement. Excellent little bikes

It's not too bad on comfort, the higher Renthal bar conversion tuned out the lean forward standard H bars issue I was having.
The seat is OK, but imagine it could be sculptured per individual needs. The last two years I just preferred the MX-5 I bought for going from A-B.

My lad who is 20 and Subject to a restricted A2 47hp licence loves his 500x, last year we both did 2000 miles around France it was fine as his first larger bike and coped well with touring, I may of let him have a go on my larger bike in France 🏍, so he's now booked the A test so he can go to a larger hp/cc, I might just keep the 500x as a commuting ride.
Anyway great bike have a bump

My god are the road surfaces in a dire state for anything with two wheels.
