The Honda CB500X is the best beginner adventure bike because it's perfectly suited for the types of beginner motorcycle adventures beginner adv riders take. Don't believe me? Let's get out on a typical beginner adv bike ride and explore the backcountry (and even some of the Oregon BDR) on a bone stock Honda CB500X to prove it.
My full Honda CB500X review is coming very soon, but in this video I wanted to discuss some of my favorite features of this entry-level adventure motorcycle including its versatility and how I believe it's so much more than the sum of its parts. The Honda CB 500X may be one of the best beginner motorcycles of all time just because it's so easy to ride, so forgiving, yet so capable of so many things. It's versatile, beginner friendly, and best of all inexpensive.
