  Having a CBX is on my 'bucket list'.   :cooldude:  . .  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.


Hoser

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  :o

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 !!

Someone buy it and drop it off at the house. I'd ride it like it was legal.

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.  :cooldude:

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.  ;)
