FS: 1981 Honda CBX Super Sport Phoenix AZ

1981 Honda CBX Super Sport - 25127 miles - $17999 YouTube - https://youtu.be/5Jrvcaa8MqA Check out this 1981 Honda CBX Super Sport, it's only had one owner since new! The owner was a certified Honda technician in 1981, managing the service department at a local Honda dealership back then. He pulled it out of the factory crate and assembled it himself, has performed all its maintenance over the years, no one else has touched this CBX. One of the coolest upgrade we noticed right off the bat, he got rid of the NHSTA mandated 85 mph speedometer and installed the 150mph speedo and matching tach from the 1979 model. It also has the optional Hondaline gauges including ambient air temp, analog clock, cylinder head temp and oil temp, taller windscreen, custom hand built 110 led taillight/brake light, led headlight and Aux driving lights, there is also a power outlet right above the gauges. The factory saddlebags are in great shape, minor rub marks. We are told the CBX has never been dropped or tipped, it shows. The paint is over the top in nice condition, compared to others I have been watching for the last couple years online, this is one of the nicest. The paint is not faded, the red pinstripes are not bubbling or discolored. In the box of bits that came in with this incredible condition CBX we see a full box of Honda memories. Service manual, owner’s manual, brochures, magazine articles, tool kit and more! I have not seen a better kept tribute to ownership of such a wonderful machine. This is not a redo or some bike that was never ridden. It was ridden, it was enjoyed, and it had the best care and love any motorcycle could have asked for. All the services are up to date, tires are new along with other routine annual services all current, it arrived to us with carbs drained and fuel tank empty. Our service techs added some good fuel, connected the battery and it fired right up like it should, settled into a steady idle as anticipated. Hey, the owner was a Honda motorcycle trained technician! It's not often anymore that we take a 40-year-old vintage motorcycle from its original owner and especially so well cared for! We have the above-mentioned manuals and brochures along with all the original paperwork, full-service documentation performed by the owner over the 40 years. 3 original keys and a clean WA title If you get that feeling of, “I should of, could of" like many of us around when these were new, I get it. Heck I was young salesman selling these new in 1981, all these years later, I can personally tell you, this is one of the nicest virtually all original condition ones around. It's been sorted and can be ridden and enjoyed or just starred at. PRESS Honda had produced a Honda RC series six-cylinder race bike in the mid-1960s, but the CBX was Honda's first production 6 cylinder road bike. The CBX's advanced DOHC 24-valve inline six-cylinder engine was its outstanding feature; but in other respects the bike was conventional, having telescopic forks, a tubular frame, twin rear shocks and straight handlebars Although bulky, the engine was wide only at the top. The width across the crankshaft was relatively narrow as the CBX had a stacked engine accessory arrangement, whereby the alternator and ignition items were positioned behind the cylinder block. This arrangement produced an acceptable engine width low down and moved critical items out of harm's way in the event of grounding. "Don't tell me that its engine is too wide: It is no wider than the legs of a rider, so it adds nothing to the frontal area, and personally I would rather have my legs shielded by a cylinder apiece than exposed to every blow Sport touring model In 1981, Honda repositioned the CBX into the sport touring category with the CBX-B, detuning the engine and adding Pro-Link monoshock rear suspension, air-adjustable 39 mm front forks, a fairing and panniers with a stronger frame to support these additions. The CBX was given beefier dual ventilated front brake discs to help bring to a stop the bike's increased weight. The 1982 model CBX-C model differed little from the 1981 model, having only some changes to paint and trim.
