At the heart of the 2022 Honda Cb500F 2022 Honda CB500F naked motorcycle, Honda Cb500F 2022 utilizes a 471 cc (28.7 cu in) liquid-cooled twin, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 43 Nm (31.7 lb-ft) at 6,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0 x 66.8 mm (2.6 x 2.6 inches) with a 10.7:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the Honda CB500F measures 192 kg (423 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 790 mm (31.1 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,410 mm (55.5 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 16.7-liter (4.4 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 477 km (296 miles) between fill-ups.
