They are essentially the same bike, just a little bit different cosmetically.

The better buy is the one that suits your wants and needs best from a motorcycle but no one version will be the better buy for all riders ( that is why Honda offers 3 different version of the same bike...the two you mentioned plus the CB500R ).

The X is a lot more popular, to me it looks cooler and you can add farkles to it like luggage and different widescreens and such. It also has a slightly more upright seating position.

They are the same bike with different body work, handlebars and seats.

here is a comparison http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/motorbikes/10152808/Honda-CB500F-CB500X-and-CBR500R-review.html

It depends on what kind of riding you want to do. Performance on all three is essentially identical.

Like hard cases? Pick the one with the best aftermarket cases.
