Honda CBX description
Up for auction is my 1979 Perseus Silver CBX, which has 12k miles on it. It is in excellent condition, and is 100% road-ready. THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST SILVER Z BIKES OFF THE PRODUCTION LINE IN 1978 , # 2159 - first registered in 1979.
I purchased the bike in 2009. It has been stored covered, by the previous owner and me, in a climate-controlled building. Gas tank and carburetor have been seasonally drained.
The speed-tach-volt cluster was replaced by the previous owner, due to ultra-violet discoloration. The current odometer shows 3974 miles. Actual mileage is just over 12,000.
Has the Euro (GP) kit. Original paint. No tears in the upholstery, no scratches or scrapes.
The engine has been regularly maintained - oil, filter, and spark plugs have just been changed. No engine leaks.
Brand new front and rear Dunlop tires. The battery is one year old.
Exhaust is in excellent condition. Fork seals do not leak. Chain and sprockets near original condition.
The previous owner stored the bike from 1996 until I bought it in April, 2009. I have put 3680 miles on it in the 4 years I've owned it. I have been a certified Honda auto technician for 38 yrs., and have owned and maintained motorcycles all my life. I have taken meticulous care of this bike and can honestly state that it starts and runs like new.
I have a clear Ohio title.
Here's an opportunity to own one of the rare early production CBX classics.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Thanks for looking, Rob

Glen Richards back with Embassy Racing
Wed, 27 Oct 2010One of the unsung heroes of the BSB paddock over the past few seasons, has to be 2010 Superstock 1000 runner up Glen Richards. A nasty tumble in at the Brands Hatch opener lead to four DNFs, but once back on track he pushed the dominant BMWs hard, finishing on the podium eight times. While many were trading their grannies to fund new S1000RRs, Richards kept the faith and rode the wheels off his Padgett’s Honda Fireblade.
