CX 500 was designed by the same guy that designed the CBX ( little known fact) tranverse V twin ala Moto Guzzi with cylinders twisted to move carbs in toward center giving room for riders knees. Originally 500cc grew to 650 cc and was eventually turbo.d. Liquid cooled shaft drive. First relaesed in 1978 lasted into the early 80s. like all Hondas generally reliable. Made 50 ish horsepower if I remember correctly.
Makes a great looking cafe racer.
