Honda CB500X?

[faromaru4]

I come from Malta Europe.

Currently working on buying new bike in the 500cc region. My preferred option is Honda cb500x. Test drive done. Found it a bit intimidating with feet not completely touching the ground. WHEN IN IDLE POSITION. Otherwise OK.

Awesome bike.
On one hand.
[UWSL]Good at everything, not bad at anything. Not way too heavy, plenty of power, (relatively) cheap. Smooth engine. Long range fuel tank. Legendary reliability. Unicorn. [/UWSL]
On the other hand.
Not excellent at anything. Suspension and seat could use improvement. Could be lighter. Could use more power. Boring.
Have I confused everyone, or just myself?

I have a couple buddies that have them and love them.

My kid rode one across the US and back without complaining.

You can always get a lowering link or taller boots.

I’ve never even sat on one but they look like a great bike. I’d love to have a bike that is a little more comfortable for longer rides over the road and the X seems like a strong value.
