Disclaimer Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) This is what I did this weekend. Ran up to Constantine, MI with my ol' man to pick up his new toy he got off eBay. The story behind the bike seems a little fishy, and we're still waiting for the title, but all in all, I think my dad got a pretty good deal. I'd give it a 8.6/10 as there's some minor nitpick cosmetic issues to make it perfect. Considering it's a 30yr old bike... it's been pretty well kept.This is the 3rd complete CBX he's picked up in the last 18 months, the others are in various states of street-worthiness, but this one is turnkey ready to ride with me this summer. Sorry about the "fog" in the pics, we had the thing running to check a few things. Edited January 18, 2010 by JRMMiii Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheezle Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Nice! How about more pics of that perty car in the back ground?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonzie Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 VERY cherry... though it looks like she could use a lil' Honda Polish!! With those side bags.... You should ask him if you can borrow it for our anniversary ride this summer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted January 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Those sidebags are pretty weak as far as carrying capacity. You could fit about 3 bologna sandwiches in each one with not much room for more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Yes, they do... my dad plans on taking the baffles out of the 6:1 header that's on it. That's how he used to run his race bike back in the day.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8tkVSKb77Y&feature=player_embedded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
20thGix Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Nice! How about more pics of that perty car in the back ground??Im going to take a guess and say Buick Skyhawk. And the bike looks clean for the age and milage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted January 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 Im going to take a guess and say Buick Skyhawk.It's whatever brand paid the most contingency that year...It's spent most it's life being a Chevy Monza or an Olds Starfire.But, yes, it could pass as a Skyhawk too, though I don't think he ever registered it on his entries as that.
