When I was young my dad owned a Honda CX500 like this one. His was blue.
Specs : 500cc V-Twin
Liquid cooled
Shaft Drive
manufactured : '78 to '83
What a nice old bike. Lots of torque.Very forgiving. My dad sold his bike for R2500 and I was mad at him for months. I learned to ride on that bike. And ever since I had a thing for the CX's. I have always wanted to own one.
A while back I discovered one standing at an Engineering works here Uitenhage. Same colour and design as the one in the pic. It needs some work, and exhausts , but the otherwise it is not in bad shape.
And I have been dreaming and scheming and raking my brains for ways to acquire this bike. And slowly I have come to the realization that I will not own this bike. There is just no way that I will be able to scrape together the money.
And so I will keep on dreaming. Maybe one day.....

They are lovely bikes indeed. I'll be praying that God will bless you with something even nicer than that!
With love in Christ,
