CFMoto 250NK vs Honda NX500

The CFMoto 250NK (2026) and the Honda NX500 (2025) are compared with the same Moto Kıyas physics model under identical conditions: flat dry asphalt, no wind, a 75 kg rider and no passenger. The CFMoto 250NK is a naked bike with 249 cc, 26.2 hp and unlisted weight; the Honda NX500 is a adventure bike with 471 cc, 46.9 hp and 196 kg. Power-to-weight with the rider: 111.2 hp/ton versus 173.2 hp/ton. On this measure the Honda NX500 is 56% ahead.

In the simulation the CFMoto 250NK covers 0-100 km/h (speedometer) in 8.91 s and the Honda NX500 in 5.11 s; the Honda NX500 is quicker by 3.80 s. In the 100-0 km/h brake test, braking distance without the 0.3 s reaction time is 48.0 m for the CFMoto 250NK (ABS unknown, class assumption: no ABS) and 41.4 m for the Honda NX500 (with ABS). The Honda NX500 stops 6.6 m shorter. Calculated top speed: 115 km/h (estimated from power and drag) versus 152 km/h (estimated from power and drag).

All values are an estimated simulation, not road-test measurements. Technical data comes from the sources listed below; the model uses model-specific parameters calibrated against published road tests for the CFMoto 250NK and class-average calibration (no accepted model-specific road test) for the Honda NX500.
