1978 Honda CB500 Four

The CB500 Four continued in the European market until 1978, after the US had moved on to the CB550 in the 1974 model year. It had been made by Honda since 1971 and was styled like the CB750, but smaller and lighter. The sources used for this page record no other change specific to the 1978 model year, so this page claims none. This page belongs to the Honda CB500 Four (single generation), 1971 to 1978 model years; the generation page and the Honda CB500 Four model page link to the other model years, so the changes of neighbouring years can be read in order.
