Honda Other description

Up for your consideration is an extremely rare 1983 Honda CX650 Turbo.  These CX650 Turbos are rare. 1777 were built worldwide, and less than 1100 were sold in the US.
I am selling this bike for my brother who purchased this bike new in 1983.  It has spent most of it's life in his garage or basement. He would occasionally get it out put gas in it and start it up and take it for a spin.  Then return it to storage.  He passed away in July and I am selling it for his daughters.  I purchased a new battery and put gas in it and it started almost instantly.  I rode it about 8 miles to my house and it ran just as I remembered. 
“Off boost, it cruises down the road like a mildly tuned 650 twin. On boost, it accelerates like an F-4 being blasted off the flight deck of the USS Enterprise by a steam catapult.”

 The bike is in excellent condition especially considering it is 30 years old.  It does have some slight blemishes which I have tried to show in the pictures.  There are some scratches in the decal on the left side and the glove box cover is missing.  The original tool kit and owners manual are included, as is an original Turbo cover. It has a clear title. Good Luck

In 2005-2006, the fatal crashes per 10,000 registered motorcycles without antilock brakes was 6.6.
