Hi to all, I found your site when I was looking for parts. I kind of fell on a 1966, 500. Very good body and runs. I like your site,,,,cbxjon

Wikipedia wrote:The CBX750, or RC17 is a Honda motorcycle sold primarily in Europe, South Africa and Australia. Manufactured from 1984 to 1988, the CBX750 was developed from the CB750, in parallel with the VF750, a wholly new design. It is also used by motorcycle police in Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Turkey, Gibraltar and Ireland.

I have owned a few bikes in my past, including a couple of Hondas...

Image
My First Motorcycle - 1983 Honda CB-1100F with custom Greer full fairing. Taken at rest stop on Mulholland Hwy in Los Angeles/Ventura County area in 1985. Used to commute nearly every weekday from Camarillo, California to Van Nuys ANG Base (approximately 80 miles round-trip).

My 2nd Motorcycle, a 1987 Honda Hurricane CBR1000F. Photo taken in 1990 at 7098 Evaline Lane, Austin, Texas while stationed at Bergstrom AFB.

My current motorcycles include a 2003 Yamaha FJR1300 Sport Touring Bike and a 2002 Suzuki Hayabusa...

My 4th Motorcycle - 2002 Suzuki GSX-1300R Hayabusa Limited Edition - Purchased new in 2004. This bike is good for about 200 mph -- if I ever had the nerve! It is definitely faster than I am, but makes for a great ego ride! At my current age of 68 I think it is time for me to sell the Hayabusa and say goodbye. In comparison, the Yamaha is relatively mild.

I've had a couple of FZR1000s. I've been really wanting an R1 but I have no business doing that.
