2025 Honda NX500 // Review After 1000km // Why i sold it after only 1000km

Pretty sure im gonna get heat for that one.

Hear me out! It's a good bike! Almost everything about it is good ( besides the price and fuel consumption) and im sure if you want a realiable jack of all trades bike you can get somehing way worse than this.

But i simply didn't click with it. The engine has a predictable liniar power delivery, suspension and brakes are good, quality and finish are decent.

But its just boring to ride for me. And its not the "lack of power" - i liked my time with the Rebel 500 and several other A2 Bikes i tested.

I simply didn't get excited to ride it. Something that never happened to me.

Even though i outright didn't like some bikes (looking at you Speed Twin 1200RS) i always wanted to give them another chance.

But not with this one. Everyone getting it surely doens't make a bad choice even though its quite expensive for what it is. You can get an MT07 for the same price new!

BUT i recommend trying out the A2 offerings from other brands or if you have the full 8.5k to spend to look for a used bike. You can

Sorry Honda! But you were known to make reliable AND affordable bikes that also excite you to ride them. This one is just reliable.

Can't really recommend it on that price.
