The 2023 Makina Moto Show served as the first stomping ground for the Honda CL500 Scrambler. The new light-middleweight is now officially available in the ASEAN country, marking the Honda brand’s entry into the highly-competitive segment.
When it comes to Hondas, there’s something for everyone, except scrambler enthusiasts. Honda’s modern scrambler takes the popular Rebel platform, which is also a descendant of the CB500F and CBR500R in a manner of speaking, and gives it a little more athletic prowess—just a tad more. With a more upright and less slumped-over seating position, the new CL500 opens up Honda’s lineup to the retro enthusiast, now available in the Philippines.
