Title: CX 500
Post by: skyline on February 20, 2006, 05:14:15 AM

 I have a Honda CX500, with believe it or not, 600 genuine miles on the clock, the bike is in excellent condition, having it`s last mot in 1983, the bloke who bought it died just after getting it.
 It has been in his wifes garge ever since.
 Has anybody any idea of the value of this bike?
 Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Buddy.  A bike like that is only worth what someone else is prepared to pay for it.  Has it been periodically started and moved? I guess its at least 25 yrs old. a long time to leave bike standing???

Do you have any pics to send? What sort of figure would temp you? And finally, where in the UK do you located (area)?

Hi,
I owned a CX for two years in the early eighties.
The bike was the original CX500 with black radiator and no wind fairing.
A model in nearly new nick would be worth 2k now, but as mentioned b4 is open to anyone who is prepared to pay .whatever!!
