I went to Station Park Honda in Louisville and as luck would have it they did not have one. Guy said he sold 3 this month out of the blue. The guy was very nice and told me to head across the river to Indiana at CC Powersports in Clarksville Indiana. Anyway, he gave me a price and told me to look around and kill some time until the other dealer opened. Very laid back place at Station Park.
So I head over to CC powersports and this place is pretty large. Tons of bikes of all sorts. They had one CB stuck way back in the corner and I spotted it. It was the most beautiful bike in the joint bar none. Pictures dont do it justice. Just gorgeous. So I ask to sit on it because I am worried about the height. AT a towering 5'5" I can tip toe on both feet so I can ride this thing. I would need to shave the seat down a tad just for insurance. But now I know for sure I can handle it.
They were a little too high pressure for my tastes and too high but I had to get out of there before I did something stupid like buy it. I saw Honda Hoarders cx500 there and it is mint. They told me about Curt and I said I knew him from this forum.
So after actually seeing it and pouring over every detail I know the CB is for me. Nothing else in the entire building got my blood flowing like this thing does. Now, I just gotta find a bank to rob.
At least you and your gleaming red getaway bike will look great as you speed off into the sunset.
