    Outstanding Fact Filled Video! I must admit in my old age the CBX is my all time favorite as well. Back in the early eighties a group of us used to get together on Sunday mornings. One in the group had a CBX. I learned to adore the sound of the engine as it would howl away from the group every once in a while. I got used to watching the taillight getting smaller and smaller in a couple of seconds knowing there was nothing I or anyone in the group could do to catch it. The images and sounds are carved into my mind forever. Although I will never own one I love them just the same. Also, if memory serves me correctly, Honda had a bunch of NOS CBX's in the early eighties sitting in the crates that could be had at a nice discount. Sad to say the bike was a flop. Not so today!

    I see a CB77 in shot there at 2:20. I had one of those in 1962, brand new and one of the first sold in Britain. It outperformed many of the British bikes like BSA 650s, Triumphs etc and unlike those never leaked oil and ran smooth as silk with no vibration! That bike was 315cc and redlined at 9500 rpm although I took it higher than that to 11000 one time and it did not mind at all! The first CBX I ever saw - and heard - took my breath away with the engine sound on standard silencers. It just sounded sooooo sweet and smooth!

    The CBX was launched at the same time as the new CB900f and the CB750kz all three bikes had common engine features 4 valve heads, with pentroof combustion chambers. I couldn’t afford the CBX in 79 when I was in the market for my first big bike. Ended up with the 750kz the first Honda 750 twin cam 16v road bike. Everybody lusted after the CBX for around 18 months it was king of the road, until the other manufacturers caught up and overtook the CBX, for me it still holds a special place👍

    Dude, so agree on the CBX as fave of all time. Born in 67, grew up riding Honda with their roulette wheel displacement progression. Never did have an original CB750 though, 😕. Years ago a friend invited me to work corners at Talladega Gran Prix raceway as we were both into sport bikes and MC culture pretty heavily. That weekend, a vintage racing organization called AHRMA had booked the track. Vintage motorcycle racing people are the nicest, coolest, most laid back folks in an industry and culture full of Ricky Racer, chip on the shoulder, wannabe type A's and that weekend we camped out at the track and partied with these same folks the whole time. There were tons of interesting bikes and classes for every sort. From the obscure to the ubiquitous, it was there. While wondering the campground that first evening my buddy and I encountered our first Honda CBX. It was up on pit bulls sitting

    Very well done video and your very easy to understand (even if you do talk a little fast?) I too would love to own a CBX! Had many opportunities years ago and now am kicking myself for not seeing then what I see now? The CBX could never be my only bike but sure would be fun just for customizing and showing off that beautiful symphony of sound that they make!

    I remember going to the local Honda dealer when I was 16 and sitting on one of these and comparing it to the used CB350 I owned, it was massive. Then I heard someone in the parking lot fire one up...... man oh man did that sound great. The closest I got to owning one was a CB900 Custom. A guy at the 2007 Americade Rally in Lake George, NY was riding a custom bike with 1000cc motor up and down the street. Maybe there will be one at the vintage bike show in Stockbridge, Michigan next month. Fingers crossed.

    I bought my friends dads gsxr600 back in 2008. He used the money from the sale to buy a CBX1000. It was in bits in a few crates, with only 60 miles on the odometer. He rebuilt it and went on to sell it to Honda UK for a pretty decent profit. It sits in the foyer of their UK headquarters.

    I have always wanted one. I make do with a 1998 GSF600 Bandit. They are cheap to get, easy to care for, parts are readily available, (new or used) and go reasonably well. I have spent more on the bike than it is worth about 3 times over, but I LOVE IT. Plus I love old naked bikes.

    1965, 125cc, 4 stroke - 5 cylinder, 20v, 19500rpm, 32ps..... That’s the same power as a 125 watercooled 2 stroke engine designed in the 1990’s. Honda was doing it 30 years prior to that. Mental.

    One of my favorite bikes ......a friend of mine had two but he passed away and his ex wife got them and sold them for about $3000 each unfortunately I did not have the cash. I am driven by how a bike sounds that's why I ride a Harley and why I owned the Suzuki GT750 ...... Unfortunately I will not be able to own a CBX but I did test ride one the year it was released . Great video by the way

    In 79 I bought the new i think xl 500 trail bike and the dealer had a 79 CBX with turbo and they could t sell it because they said when you tried to slow down for curves you had to let of throttle way early or it would push too fast through corner.??

    There’s a power when you grab that throttle few will ever know. I used to say it’s like you just think of being somewhere and you’re there. Kind of like being teletransported. Haha. It was smooth, I never felt the rain grooves, it was so fast the traffic was a distant memory. It was just a lot of fun to own and ride.
