Honda CBX description

Low mileage 1979 Honda CBX

I purchased this – first series - 1979 CBX in 2011 from a collector in New York. He purchased it from his friend who purchased it from the original owner in Florida. I imported the bike into Canada in 2011 as the fourth owner with a clear title.

The 1979 model is the most desirable of the four years the CBX was produced. The bike is ridden regularly so the mileage at the time of sale will be a little higher than what is shown.

The bike was 100% stock when I bought it. Work I have done to the bike includes:

  • Engine dismantle, inspection and rebuild by a professional. Although this CBX has very low miles, I wanted to replace all parts which deteriorate over time which includes: new gaskets, seals, clutch plates, rings, chain tensioners, alternator and starter rebuilds. I also had all engine casings soda blasted and painted (Tim’s CBX paint);

  • Inside tank clean and liner installed;

  • Sport kit (this is a very rare kit as there are not many around) and includes lower handlebars, different foot-peg position, shorter cables and a front shock brace;

  • Carb rebuild with a stage one jet kit - older bikes should run a little rich;

  • New tires, cables, chain and sprockets;

  • Front and rear brake caliper rebuilds and steel braided hydraulic lines;

  • Front suspension rebuild with progressive springs.

The rest of the bike is stock and in excellent condition.

Capirossi Announces Retirement at Conclusion of 2011 Season

Thu, 01 Sep 2011

Loris Capirossi announced he will retire at the end of the 2011 MotoGP season, closing off a quarter century of racing including 22 years at the Grand Prix level and three World Championships. “It’s an important moment in my career, and the decision I made has come about after a lot of reflection,” says Capriossi. “I’m happy that after 25 years, of which 22 were in the world championship, I’m at a point where I can still have a smile on my lips as I part ways, even if it’s difficult to think that I won’t be riding a bike next year.” The announcement was made during a press conference at Misano for the upcoming San Marino Grand Prix, the final Italian stop of the 2011 season.

Top box trauma

Wed, 24 Nov 2010

I've struggled with my Honda hard luggage over the past few months, I have to admit. To much office hilarity (and piss taking) I managed to lose the top box just a few miles from the office. I thought the locating mechanism was fastened securely but the first rapid getaway from the first set of traffic lights on Upper Street proved me wrong.It was at least a mile before I noticed that my top box was absent.

Honda has patented a technical solution from the arsenal of the Gold Wing tourer.

Thu, 02 Apr 2020

The modern Honda Gold Wing is equipped with a double wishbone front suspension, which not only increases ride comfort, but also allows the geometry of the motorcycle not to change during acceleration and braking. Lever suspension, which stabilizes the bahavior, may appear on other models of the company in the future. This is hinted at by patent images of similar systems integrated into the design of completely different motorcycles - the “classic” CB1100 and the small-capacity C125 Super Cub.
