Less traveled roads and silent routes have million of things to say, thousands of things to show, and hundreds of things to teach. Every turn is unexpected, every stone is unfamiliar, the unknown wind is looking at you surprisingly, and the unknown terrain is appreciating you and testing your control over the bar and your mind. Your thoughts are enslaved by your passion, and breathtaking views are eating your words in the same way your NX500 is eating miles.
Honda has launched a new adventure tourer machine in the market, the NX500. The NX500 has adventurous body language which tells you how eager this bike is to tackle any terrain you throw at it. That badass style is making this bike a head-turner, being an adventure tourer it has to be practical & tough and the stance this motorcycle has is telling you how practical and tough this machine is.
What is the price of the Honda NX500?
Honda launched this bike only in a single variant and ex-showroom this bike costs you around 5.90 lakh which is definitely on the higher side.
Meanwhile, the new Royal Enfield Himalayan is already in the industry with attractive pricing and features, so it will be very exciting to see which one stands out in this market-grabbing race.
How much power does this new Honda NX500 have?
So, this amazing machine is powered by a liquid-cooled DOHC parallel twin 471cc engine which has 67mm of bore, 66.8mm of stroke, and a compression ratio of 10.7:1 BS6 2.0 emission compliant and 6-speed manual transmission.
When it comes to power this heart churns out 46.8bhp of power at 8600rpm and 43Nm of torque at 6500rpm.
What about the mileage of the Honda NX500?
As per the brand claim, this thing can return somewhere around 27.8kmpl which looks good to me and it has a big belly as well, the fuel tank capacity is quite impressive, and it can drink up to 17.5 liters of petrol. So, the range of the Honda NX500 is 486.5km which is very good but these figures are claimed by the brand which means you will get less than these figures.
What are the features Honda NX500 has?
Honda has given many features to this adventure tourer including, 5 inch digital display,
smartphone connectivity,
Honda's torque control,
slipper clutch,
focus light at the front and
dual channel ABS.
Other than these it comes with a gear position indicator, clock, tachometer, and all the usual things.
The dimensions of the Honda NX500 are as follows-
Length- 2,165mm
Width- 829mm
Height- 1,413mm
Ground clearance- 181mm
Seat height- 830mm
Weight- 196kg
Design of the Honda NX500....
On a serious note, this bike is looking very attractive indeed. I like that they have maintained that Honda adventure tourer design but still come out with something different.
The front of the bike has a very boxy and bold look, it comes with a small windscreen which won't help you much while tackling wind blasts.
The light setup looks very nice and all the lights are LED on this bike with two focus lamps at the front.
From the side, that parallel-twin engine looks beautiful, ground clearance is great to off anywhere without thinking much, and seat height (830mm) is on the higher side so might create problems for short riders. A single-piece step-up seat is there for you and your pillion and pillion get a nice amount of room too.
