Well l’ve been and gone and done it !, placed an order for a new ‘22 model yesterday . Went for the black & gunmetal . No date as to when it will arrive but don’t think it will be this side of Christmas. Good things worth waiting for eh ?

Many thanks for your comment, thinking of hanging on for the latest model. I will be going down the same route as yourself, from far more powerful bikes to a practical one !

I’m thinking the same mate, comfort and practicality comes before speed these days !

Thanks for the links, yes l will stay on the site !

Strange, l put a search up on Google for a cb500x forum and ended up here, can’t now find the cb threads ! Must be going senile sooner than l thought !

Forgot to add I’m after a Honda cb500x !

Sorry l the new cb500x !

Hi everyone, Wafty here. I’m 74 years of age, passed my motorcycle test in 1963 so as you can imagine I’ve had a few bikes along the way ! I live a few miles away from the Mecca of Matlock Bath.I’m beginning to feel the time has come to be able to ride in a more upright position than l have in the past and research has guided me to here. Can’t make my mind up whether to wait for the new model to be made available or to look for a low mileage older one. Any advice will be more than welcome, thanks.
