MCN road tester Dan Sutherland had a whale of a time testing two junior sportsbikes - the Honda CBR500R and the ever-impressive Yamaha R3. Group test: Honda CBR500R vs Yamaha R3įirst published in MCN on 26 June 2019 by Dan Sutherland You also get a Datatag, two years unlimited mileage warranty and European breakdown cover. Service intervals are every 8000 miles and you can expect over 70mpg with a careful right hand. Six grand is very little for a machine that offers so much. Listen to the Honda CBR500R exhaust sound in our video review! An adjustable brake lever, blue anodised fork tops and well-finished, logically-placed switchgear seal the deal, with the only major gripe being the mirrors, which are largely consumed by your gloves and forearms.Ī2 licence holders should be feeling pretty chuffed when they discover just how dazzling 47bhp can be.

This is complemented by the LED headlights and all-new LCD dash, which features a similar layout to the larger capacity, four-cylinder CBR650R.

You can’t help but steal glances at yourself in shop windows as you cruise through town and could easily mistake it for a Fireblade. Finished in a delicious glossy red and black and complete with a chunky 17.1-litre fuel tank between your legs, it offers a ‘big-bike’ feel. It offers credible performance alongside aspirational styling, complete with MotoGP-inspired wings. First introduced in 2014, it's a stalwart of the A2 genre and is now in its third iteration. Commenting is disabled on posts once they’re 30 days old.The latest Honda CBR500R is refined, well balanced, beautifully built and peppy.If you’ve mentioned this post somewhere, enter the URL here to let me know: I want something a bit more general but I’m not bothered about catwalk shows or every tiny shift in what style of trousers are hot right now (you can hear me shout “That’s not news!” every morning when I get to one of the Guardian‘s self-important fashion articles). I like The Rosenrot but that’s quite specific. I follow a bunch of men’s tailoring blogs which is a bit different. I enjoy some of the Fully Charged shows, which are enthusiastic and charming (and electric) but I feel the car blog for me is out there somewhere.Īs for fashion… again, I’m not sure what aspect I want to read about. I don’t care about super cars or vintage cars, and I don’t want in-depth reviews of every new Nissan Mundane and Vauxhall Humdrum. I don’t know what angle I’m interested in. I’ve tried a few car blogs over the years and never stuck with any of them other than Not £2 Grand Cars. For example, I’d like to find a good blog or two about both cars and fashion. I still need more variety - fewer men writing about computery stuff for a start. It seems like a good way to share nice things. Hopefully I’ll find more blogs I want to follow and, when I do, I’ll post something about them.
I only want a high-level taste of what’s happening and Tsai’s curation (as we call it these days) is a brilliant way to do that.
I’m interested in this stuff but, not being an iOS/macOS developer I’m not into it enough to follow loads of people doing it. He blogs about Apple tech stuff from a developer’s point of view, and mostly does so by collecting a several tweets or quotes about a particular topic. I used to use his SpamSieve email filter years ago, and it’s still going. Michael Tsai has also been around for ages. The exact same sonic issues that I abhor in conference calls I seek out in electronic music. Lots of really interesting stuff about music and sound more generally, connected nicely in this quote from a recent article: Here are a couple of keepers.ĭisquiet by Marc Weidenbaum - “at the intersection of sound, art, and technology” - has been around for yonks but it wasn’t until I followed a link from (I think) Tom Armitage that I thought, “Oh, I should be following this”. So I’ve been making more effort to look out for other blogs to follow and have added a “Tryout” tag in Feedbin as a way to sit with them for a while and see what sticks.
(I do follow sites other than those listed but those in my blogroll are, I guess, those I like enough, and that are updated regularly/recently enough, to be happy to share.) I realised how many of them are by friends, which is lovely and cosy but it’d be good to cast the net wider. Putting together my blogroll last month (the latest version is on this page) was the first time in a while I’ve thought about what blogs I’m following and why.
