      Cool, yes..but it still looks like a little kid's ride out in front of a grocery store. Add an aluminum seat, take off the propeller and the "machine guns" and it would help a lot.

      1982 Honda CX500 Turbo, 1982 Honda MB5 w/CR80 motor, 1977 Honda "nekid" Goldwing, 1976 Honda CB550F cafe', 1972 Honda XL250 cafe'

          I guess when reality smacked him upside the head he decided for the less brutal road travelled.

          1984 GS1150ES (finally arrived, more to come...)
          1989 Dodge Dakota (the perfect Oregon work truck)
          1980 Sears "Free Spirit" bicycle (original patina and everything!)
          1978 "The Executive" RV (vintage like its owner)

          How can I be in two places at once when i'm not anywhere at all?

          Can I double park in a parallel universe?

              “call or text,thanks....Serious inquiries please not looking to sell so no lowballs or crap trades..”

              How could anybody low ball a bike that's only good for salvage or major frame work?

                someone tried to sell me a CBX in similar condition the frame had been chopped and severely modified in a cafe conversion(unfinished)...he told me it could be returned to original but it would be cheaper and quicker just to source a parts bike for it's frame.

                    Not being critical..just honest. It looks silly to me. This thread is filled with disgust and cruel remarks at other people's projects..some deserved, others not so much.

                        It is supposed to be a collecting pot of the ridiculous for ridicule.
                        Some of these bikes are tracked down and purchased. Most are ridiculously over priced.
                        We gotta tell somebody, these emperors have no clothes on.

                            Somebody was so dumb to chop a CBX 1000???? Like, can any be found under $7000???
                            Maybe a 4 cylinder CBX?

                              Let's face it; you need a sense of humour and a strong sense of the ridiculous to ride an outfit anyway.

                                Right, whenever they appear in a move, they're always used for a comical prop.
