Vehicle Detail
Selling my 1979 Honda CBX. I want to be clear that this bike is being sold as is and where is, which is in Ontario Canada. It has a clean title and I will supply the sellers package which shows prior owners back to 1980. If you are able to view in person before bidding please do, if not then I will answer any questions you have, providing I know the answer. Although this bike does not look like it just rolled out of the showroom, it is presentable and with some minor tuning it could be enjoyed as is. I received as a part of a package deal with another CBX and have no use for two red 79s. Other than for the videos attached, I have not driven this bike. Good news: This is a complete CBX that starts run and stops. Head and tail lights, signal lamps, gauges and horn all work. Wheels are correct and in good shape. A good looking bike that is sure to appreciate in time. A bike that needs no introduction when you pull into the local bike night. Please see 2 youtube videos showing bike running, driving https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvHvPjs2FsQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJMQZ4nIhLk Not so good news: As mentioned this is a 37 year old bike that was enjoyed for 57000 kilometers. (35300 miles) and yes the speedo is in Kilometers. The paint looks good but there are some flaws with the most noticeable being a dent touch up on the top right of the tank. The front fender and tail section are damage free but again the paint does have some minor flaws. At some point the seat was recovered but is not the correct material. The exhaust was also modified at some time with holes drilled into the ends. It also has been patched under the brake pedal area. Mechanics: The bike sat for 2 years so I changed the oil as well as the plugs and drained and replaced the gas. It runs well but I would recommend a cleaning and sync of the carbs. The brakes should be flushed and adjusted as the rear reservoir was low and the caliper sticks.The bike shifts well through the gears but sticks when shifting back to neutral from first. If not running it goes into neutral easily. This is possibly just a clutch adjustment but worth mentioning. Payment. A non refundable 500.00 deposit via paypal within 24 hours of the auction ending and the rest via a bank to bank wire transfer if you are planning to ship or if you prefer in cash upon pick up. Thank you
