HONDA CBX 1979 LOW VIN #56 EXCELLENT! BEAUTIFUL LOW VIN CBX, 13,900 ORIGINAL MILES. DOING SOME RESEARCH, AND I AM NOT A CBX EXPERT, THE FIRST 48 MACHINES WERE DELIVERED TO JAPAN AND EUROPE. BIKE NUMBER 49 WAS THE FIRST TO MAKE IT TO THE UNITED STATES, THIS THEN BEING THE 8TH MACHINE IMPORTED TO UNITED STATES. I PURCHASED THIS YEARS AGO IN BALTIMORE. MY FACTS AND FIGURES PROVIDED ARE FROM THE REFERENCE BOOK "THE CBX" BY IAN FOSTER. I TOOK THIS BIKE COMPLETELY DOWN TO THE BARE FRAME AND IT WAS FULLY DETAILED AND REASSEMBLED. THE COSMETICS WERE PROFESSIONALLY REPAINTED IN THE CORRECT FACTORY COLORS. THE ONLY ITEM I DID NOT PUT BACK ON THE BIKE WAS THE TOP FUEL TANK DECAL, THESE ARE READILY AVAILABLE AND CAN EASILY BE ADDED TO THE TANK TOP IF SO DESIRED. BIKE WAS AN EXTREMELY FINE ORIGINAL MACHINE REQUIRING A COSMETIC RESTORATION WHICH IT HAS RECEIVED. PERFECT ORIGINAL SEAT, BEAUTIFUL CLEAR FULLY FUNCTIONAL TACH/SPEEDO AND GAUGE CLUSTER. MOTOR RECEIVED A FULL SERVICING INCLUDING ALL FLUIDS, CARBURETORS WERE COMPLETELY REBUILT AND PROFESSIONALLY SYNCHRONIZED, BIKE RUNS LIKE A SWISS WATCH AND IS A REAL PLEASURE TO RIDE, ALL ELECTRICAL FEATURES TO INCLUDE THE HEADLAMP HIGH AND LOW BEAMS, SIGNALS, TAIL LAMP, AND BRAKE LAMP ARE FACTORY AND IN WORKING ORDER. BRAKES WERE FULLY SERVICED AND WORK AS INTENDED,TIRES ARE RELATIVELY NEW AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, BIKE IS COMPLETELY STOCK RIGHT DOWN TO THE FACTORY AIR BOX. PROBABLY THE ONLY DETRACTING FACTOR IS THE ORIGINAL FACTORY EXHAUST DOES HAVE A LITTLE SURFACE CORROSION ON LEFT SIDE MUFFLER, (AS YOU ARE SEATED ON THE BIKE) AT THE JOINT, AS IS COMMON WITH THESE FACTORY PIPES. THE RIGHT SIDE MUFFLER HAS AN AREA, AS SEEN IN THE PICTURE, OF A LITTLE THINNING OF THE CHROME FROM AGE. THE ONLY OTHER COSMETIC ISSUE IS A MINOR SCUFF ON THE ENGINE COVER PLATE, (LEFT SIDE AS YOU ARE SEATED ON THE BIKE), FROM BEING MOVED AROUND OVER THE YEARS THAT COULD EASILY BE POLISHED OUT. VERY FINE MACHINE,IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME THROUGH EBAY AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO HONESTLY ADDRESS THEM, BIKE HAS A CLEAR TITLE AND KEYS AND IS READY TO RIDE, WINNING BIDDER TO PAY A NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT OF 500,00 VIA PAY PAL WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE AUCTIONS END, FULL BALANCE TO BE BE PAID VIA CERTIFIED CASHIERS CHECK OR MONEY ORDERS WITHIN 7 DAYS. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS ARE WELCOME, BUT PLEASE DO YOUR HOMEWORK IN REGARDS TO COLLECTION AND SHIPPING OF THE MACHINE, I WILL NOT CRATE THIS MACHINE.
