4 recalls across 9 model years
The Honda CMX500 has 3 recalls covering 2020–2025 model years, with the most serious being a handlebar lock screw on 2023–2025 models that can loosen and fall between the frame and steering stem, blocking steering movement and causing loss of control.
The 2023–2025 recall covers the screw detaching entirely; an earlier filing covering 2023 models only describes the same screw loosening improperly from the start. These describe the same underlying defect, and the fix addresses both. On 2020–2021 models, the rear reflector lens can fail to reflect brightly enough to be seen by following drivers, raising the risk of a rear-end collision.
