Having a CBX is on my 'bucket list'. . . in a more natural state, however. I never understood why they stopped making them.. I guess the same reason they stopped making the Valk.  Jay Leno has one in his stable. |

I hope he didn't butcher a good stock one to do it, he threw away some money if he did. Would be a great project if he just had the drive train. Hoser  |

.... first thing I would work on the exhaust like 6 into 2
That was my first thought .... not much forgiveness for leaning there but other than that looks like a good start. Just something about the sound of a six that makes the hair stand up on your neck !! |

I look at it and think, what a waste of a great motor.
The original was soooo cool.

Sure hope he plans to cover that chain, that's a pants or flesh ripper waiting to happen. Neat sound, not turned on by much of anything else to do with it but that's just me. |

Looks like a "mansiere" is in order. +1 Yeah... same here... I was reaching for the eye bleach.... from the mutilated motorcycle and the Pillsbury Doughboy without his shirt. The sound of a CBX at full chat has always given me goose bumps... here's a unique clip of one on a hill climb... short but sounds amazing... pay attention to the sound before the bike comes into view... sounds like a baby dragon.
