Hey Guys,

I just bought a Honda CB 500 (1994). Has anyone experienced any problems with this bike? Any other advice on the bike would be helpful. This is my 1st bike.

P.S. Thanks Ben for your help!

Can’t say anything about that because in the US there was no CB500 in 1994. There was a CB450 up until the mid 80s, but no 500. I would say though that based on the fact that its a Honda, if its well maintained and sounds good when running go for it.

Have a very solid reputation. A co-worker has been riding his 1983 CB-400 50 miles one way to work for quite a while. The bike hasn’t given him any trouble.

Honda CBs have been very dependable for years. Make sure that you put stabilizer in the tank if it is going to sit for months during cold weather. Start a couple of times a month while it up while it is resting (during cold weather). Keep the oil changed and keep up the service intervals. If you don’t have a service manual already, get a Haynes or Chiltons. These Hondas are dependable as the day is long (IF you take care of it).
