What do you know about the CX500?

This all is instructive. I briefly had a GL500...same engine. No problems with the carbs; what got me to sell was it needed a complete brake-system replacement. NO parts...the GL500 was a two-year model that Honda abandoned; different brakes from the CX.

I always wanted to get another one of those Honda V-twins...but this is a reality check. FI is really a miraculous thing; and while it costs more it's cheap in the long run. I should stick with what works...a MODERN bike.

Good luck on yours. It's too bad Honda didn't take development of that model into a more modern machine...
