Guth,
you summed up what everybody is saying pretty well. a CBX is just so attractive because it's something a mad scientist created, and then tricked a large motorsports company into manufacturing for several years.
PD,
I love finding out about bikes i never knew existed. the ZRX is super cool, and right up my alley. the specs on it are really impressive, more BHP and Torque than a BMW r9t and less weight than the CB11. i am definitely interested. the design and engine style seems really similar to the CB11 too, so i have the opportunity to learn a lot about working on my main bike without putting it at risk. Further, I can get them cheaper than a Harley Sportster. The only drawback to that cool azz bike is that it's essentially the same as my CB, just a lot more muscley. The real proof of its uniqueness will be in the mods. while i spend a lot of effort converting my CB into an 80's esque triumph wannabe for that "jack of all trades" motif, It could be worth kind of "cafe"-ing a ZRX to shed as much weight as possible, or to build it out as a sport touring machine. I can see lots of ways to go with that bike.
