With the P500 becoming more and more popular with riders here I thought it would be interesting to post the one thing you HATE about your pioneer 500. Most of the gripes have been solved with aftermarket goodies but in stock trim? Enjoy!!

My 2 DON'T LIKES is the torso bars on the 2017+ I'd give anything for my old one back with the low profile torso bars and cab comfort space

maybe I should make it Don't
I don't hate any of the mentioned items in the poll, I just learned the P5 is what it is and deal with it.

I should have wrote "don't like" instead of "hate". lol

Yes, hate is a strong word. If there was something I HATED on the P500, I would not own one. I knew it's limitations before I bought it, and am quite happy with it. :)

Suggest delete and start over with a few of topics others add in. “Which should Honda improve the most as standard?” Good topic, maybe Honda will read it.
Suspension/ride
Under hood battery terminals/fuse box location
Dash layout (for more switches with blanks
Dual rear disc brakes

You didn't have ride quality so I chose the closest thing, which was shocks. That and the lack of a bed.

1st gear (too low) and top end speed (rpm's and limiter)

***I'd be happier if 2nd gear was 1st gear, or there was a 6th gear.
Check out the mod in my signature, it "fixes" the low gearing, made the P5 a lot more fun.

Oh yeah... I saw this thread as it unfolded. Crazy good write up and very helpful... Still too much to tackle for me, but I saw others not afraid to go for it.

That gearing was the main reason I sold my P500... I wish I would have tried this (or paid someone to do this) on mine
