THIS ONE is my favorite, almost bought one 20 y ago, but seller backed out last minute. It only had 10000km and was parked inside of his house in Richmond Hill.

I was told there is a guy somewhere in Ontario who restores CBXs exclusively. Has done five or six already. The bikes are often re-sold and typically starting at $34K (I think that is a coffee and donut in $U.S. terms Wink ).

I have never ridden a CBX - but I was able to touch and stroke this one. She felt right (yeah, I think it was a she).

I love the CX500 Turbo photos. The '82 model shows a digital clock in the instrument cluster. Like, who else had that stuff on their bikes back then? (not many)

I had to talk myself out of going to look at that turbo.

Too late now, as ad has been pulled.

CX500 looks like a water-cooled Moto Guzzi, but much easier to service clutch design.
