CTX was great. Super easy to ride much like the CB. Lots of low torque low revving engine. 70 MPG at times. Really comfortable riding position and I liked the looks. I had the 700n model with no fairing. I did 24000km on the CTX in a single season, a Canadian season. I did three short tours where I would ride for 8-10 hours a day for 2-3 days, never tires of it and never uncomfortable. Loved the little glove box in the tank, great place to put your sunglasses and clear goggles for a mid ride switch. It also had much wider service intervals than the CB, due to the low revving engine.
Even though the ctx had a few advantages over the cb, I do not miss my old 700. The cb is much more fun, period.
