CB500's are great, for example with the new non vibrating parallel twin motors. One up on the front sprocket for the highway and off you go. A dream on a twisty backroad.

Travel well and ride safe.
I'm moving to no ride for now. I had a lot riding I wanted to do with the CB, but it just didn't happen for me. It ended up being more bike then I needed for what I was using it for. I surely won't miss all the crazy auto drivers out there. Being 61 and if I do, it would be a small commuter bike.
Stay safe, tomas...........

Stay safe, tomas........... Thanks much nhawk7504 for the send off.
500cc will be about the biggest I'll go, with around a 400 pound weight limit. The CB500 would be nice indeed.
Stay safe, tomas.........
There are now 4 models in the CB500 range: sport, naked, adventure, and cruiser. I originally wanted the tri-colour sport bike, but my 6'2", 220 pound, 68 year body wasn't comfortable. Last time I rode a café racer I was 22 and weighed 163 pounds. I should have known better.
Tried the CB500F (naked), it was alright. But the taller CB500XA was a perfect fit for my tall frame, and it had a windshield. Never been a cruiser fan, but sure see a lot of them while riding the back roads.
