    hey I lived aboard a CX500 for a good few tearss in London. They are great things. I blew mine up in cheam ( no where near Railway cottage )

    the front was a bit flexy ,,,and I did like the turbo ( done 2 of those ), the big fault on those was the connector from the alt to the reg rect , to small corroded and burned out

    other than that great bike

    Yeah, had a couple of them myself and traveled more than 70,000 ks between them. Can't rate them high enough. RELIABLE and a lot more grunt than one would expect from a 500...............Sit on 130ks all day, 2 up with luggage (and lots of it) and still a (little) bit left for passing.

    Stopping? Mmmmm, not so flash......... Even the twin discs didn't make a lot of difference over the single.
