If you are the unsociable type, this is probably not the bike for you. The visual impact of the Honda CBX is hard to overstate. Six cylinders, six carburetors, four overhead camshafts, and 24 valves make a big visual impact. It is a smorgasbord of casings and exhaust pipes sitting in front of your knees and sweeping underneath your feet to the exhaust pipe behind. cafe racer for sale in mumbaiWith its inline six-cylinder engine the Honda CBX 1000 was groundbreaking when it first debuted in 1978. Production lasted until 1982 and, in the space of those four short years, it gained a place in motorcycle history. Unsurprisingly, it is a heavy bike at 600 lbs. wet, but the big engine produces 103 horsepower and does not stop accelerating until you hit 140 mph.

In its day, that was quicker than most sports bikes. Today, the styling looks retro, while motorcycle technology has moved on, but this remains an awesome bike. It is part of the CBX series of motorcycles from Honda, which also includes the Honda CBX 250 and Honda CBX 750. There is a vast inventory of all of these bikes on eBay.Shop the extensive inventory of motorcycles and vintage, antique, and historic motorcycle parts for Honda! This article is about the six-cylinder motorcycle made from 1978 to 1982. For Honda models with the prefix "CBX", see Honda CBX (disambiguation). The Honda CBX was a sports motorcycle manufactured by Honda from 1978 to 1982. With a 1047cc inline six-cylinder engine producing 105 bhp (78 kW), it was the flagship of the Honda range. The CBX was well received by the press, but was outsold by its sibling, the Honda CB900F. As a promotional exercise, CBX bikes were ridden by travelling marshals at the 1979 & 1980 Isle of Man TT. 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 ancillary arrangement, whereby the alternator and ignition items were sited 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. Journalist L. J. K. Setright wrote of the CBX's width: "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 ..."[5] In 1981, Honda repositioned the CBX into the sport touring category with the CBX-B, adding Pro-Link monoshock rear suspension, air-adjustable 39 mm front forks, a fairing and panniers.

[6] The CBX was given dual ventilated front brake discs to help retard the bike's 272 kg (600 lb) weight. The 1982 model CBX-C model differed little from the 1981 model, having only some changes to paint and trim. In the February 1978 issue of Cycle (magazine) editor Cook Neilson wrote this of a review of a pre-production bike. The objective-to build the fastest production motorcycle for sale anywhere in the world-has been met. From a four days review one at the Webco dynamometer and one split between American Honda, Orange County Raceway and with two at Willow Springs.[8] Comparing the CBX to the CB900F, Setright added,"The CBX feels better and goes better, and the difference is greater than the difference in price, so the costlier bike is actually the better bargain. The CBX engine is as responsive as a racer, the nicest cycle motor to ever reach the street.". The CBX was not the first production motorcycle to be powered by a six-cylinder engine (the first was the 1972–1978 Benelli 750 Sei, based on the Honda CB500 Four) but it was the latest and most advanced entry into the competitive superbike market.
