How big of an upgrade is this bike

Hi all

Currently I have a Honda CB500X and it does everything I want it to (probably needs a bit more power but still does what I need it to)

Me and the other half have started doing some longer journeys 2Up and was wondering how good the 900 is for 2up riding. Was looking at the GT Pro spec

I'm just trying to see if it's worth me spending money on right now

Thanks

Ignition switch contactor

Hi all

Has anyone replaced the ignition key switch contactor that sits under the ignition barrel ?

I have the contactor on order and I'm sure I can figure it out but does anyone have any tips ?

Is Premium petrol better? UK

Hi all

I have a 2024 model with an E clutch and have always filled it with premium E5 petrol. Is this a waste of money ? I'm not bothered by any performance difference (I know it's not going to improve anything). I have mainly used it as I have been led to believe it's better for the engine components/ethanol isn't great for some parts of the engine such as fuel lines but is this true or am I just throwing money away

Thanks

Hello all

Just come back from a short weekend away on the bike with my other half and think it's time to upgrade the rear suspension.

I have seen that YSS , Hagon , hyperpro and RallyRaid have replacements but for E.g. Rally pro have a print rate for 130kg+ but me and my other half are probably close to 150kg

Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a rear suspension that would work for both solo and 2 up riding

Thank guys
