Meanwhile, the reliable 500cc twin-cylinder is now updated with PGM-FI electronic injection, which helps improve torque delivery.

Interestingly, the entire 500cc range also received a lighter swingarm that offers greater rigidity that helps improve handling and grip.

Since its introduction in 2013, Honda has sold over 106,000 units of the 500cc range across Europe.
