2026 Honda Nx500 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

At the heart of the 2026 Honda Nx500 motorcycle, Honda features a 471 cc engine configuration. In factory specification, maximum torque reaches 43 Nm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a six-speed manual gearbox and 15t/41t; #520 o-ring-sealed chain final drive. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 67.0mm x 66.8mm with a 10.7:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the Nx500 measures 432 kg (952 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 32 mm (1.3 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 56 mm (2.2 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 4.7-liter (1.2 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.6 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 131 km (81 miles) between fill-ups.
