NX500: Seats

NX500

The Honda NX500 was introduced for the 2024 model year as a renamed and redesigned version of the CB500X, positioning itself as an approachable lightweight adventure motorcycle that balances affordability with capable performance. At its heart is a 471cc liquid-cooled parallel-twin engine that produces smooth, usable power across the rev range and has been tuned for optimal low to mid-range torque delivery. The NX500 weighs 432 pounds, making it 7 pounds lighter than its CB500X predecessor, while maintaining the accessible character that makes it ideal for both new and experienced riders seeking adventure touring capabilities without the intimidation factor of larger ADV bikes. Affectionately referred to as the "Half-Rica Twin".

Seats

Seat Concepts seats are constructed using a foam material that is a much higher quality than OEM seat foam. Their proprietary formula provides a more plush and active ride, while still offering the necessary amount of support. Their unique comfort shape maintains a similar contour to stock at the front of the seat so the rider’s legs are not spread farther apart, but tapers out towards the mid-point to distribute rider weight over a greater area.  

On this model, they built up the front of the seat, but dished out the rear slightly to level out the angle of the rider platform, and reduce the slope-into-tank feeling of the stock seat.

These features combine to offer a custom seat feel, and provide greater enjoyment and increased range on a long commute, or Dual-Sport ride!

Check out the seat warmer we carry. Put this in before tacking your cover in place and keep yourself warm during even the coldest rides. Nothing like toasted buns to make a ride comfortable!

Available as a Foam and Cover Kit for OEM pan. It DOES NOT include the pan.

Universal fit. May require additional adjustment or modification.

This is the secret for being able to put in those 500 mile days. Even a good touring seat can feel a bit harsh after a couple hundred miles. These very comfortable sheepskin seat covers give you that extra bit of 'cush' and provides superior air circulation. Velcro straps allow easy install and removal when you don't need it. Measures 14" wide by 19" long, the perfect size for Dual-Sport seats.
