When the only vehicle you own is motorcycle, you have some pretty specific considerations about what you need. Shortly before getting my Honda CB500X last year, I made a list of requirements and considered the purposes I would be using my motorcycle for.
One of the biggest considerations was that I wanted to be able to use the bike for hiking. That meant I needed a bike that could travel on highway speeds to get out of town, as well as ride on unpaved roads to get to the trailhead. I needed a bike that had aftermarket options for luggage to put my hiking boots in, and store my helmet and riding gear while I was on the trail. I wanted to be able to tour long distances and potentially take it across borders, so I needed something comfortable. And I wanted something reliable with a decent sized fuel tank that was good on gas and reasonable for insurance. (In British Columbia we seem to have some of the most expensive vehicle insurance in the world.) I wanted something that wasn’t too flashy or conspicuous, especially in potential situations of traveling abroad, particularly alone as a woman. And lastly, I wanted something that was inexpensive and simple to fix, that didn’t require specialized parts.
Does the CB500X meet my criteria? Sure does.
I would love to hear your thoughts and questions on the Honda CB500X. I'm by no means an expert, especially when it comes to anything mechanical, but I am about as passionate as anyone out there when it comes to life on two wheels.
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
