In 10 days Honda Big Wing in Chiang Mai will have the new CB 500 X in their showroom. They hinted that the price would be slightly higher than the exsisting 215,000 Bht price tag.


The only difference seems to be a front fairing facelift

They're arrived in Honda Big Wing, Chiang Mai just now from the Bangkok factory. Official price is 220,000 Bht. They received 10 today and 10 more coming in a few days.


Colors are brown, red, white and black. Changes are front beak, windscreen, different fuel cap, adjustable front brake lever and i think adjustable rear brake lever.

Unusual, but welcome move by Honda, to offer two plain, sticker less versions of the bike :giving:
 
Good that they don't get the "bronze" colored engine cases like the R and F models do.
 
I don't like the beak, and I'd have to trim that screen down. Way too big. Why do people need them, especially in a humid country where it's difficult to do more than 100 kph? Can you take the screens off?
