anyone to fully enjoy. Starting out on your first real motorcycle, or returning to the
fold after a long time away? The CBF500 reassuringly lets you know you've come to
the right place at the right time. Its quick-revving 499cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin
engine provides sharp response and strong acceleration for running errands, seeing
friends and flying through the hills, while its lightweight and smooth-handling chassis
combines with a low seat height to deliver swift, assured handling when you want it,
and a smooth ride everywhere you go.
The CBF500 also has on offer a special ABS version that adds the smooth,
confidence-inspiring control of Antilock Brakes to its mix of attractive features. More
