Very nice choice and one we in the US will never get. Honda almost seems disinterested in US sales, few choices and little promotion.

Looks like the US might see it, https://www.motorcycle.com/bikes/new-model-preview/the-honda-cl500-is-coming-to-the-us-with-the-adv160-and-a-new-grom-44584324

Interesting. Not a bike I would buy, but certainly a better option aesthetically and ergo wise than the 500 Rebel imo.

Yeah... not a bike I'd buy, but I am not a fan of the Rebel's styling, and if I were to choose a 500, it would be the CL over the Rebel in a heartbeat.
I look forward to seeing one eventually.

All the Honda Rebels are too small/low for me.
If forced to buy a Rebel, I'd just as well go back to the CB1100 for a bit less aches 'n' pain.

Only reason I wouldn't consider one, and passed on the CB500X is that all I've read and everyone I spoke with said it just isn't happy at our freeway speeds. I sold the CB300R to buy the replacement bike, and wasn't going to go from "can't keep up" to "doesn't really want to keep up"
