    That's a couple of very tidy bikes you have there sir :upyeah:

    If you want the water cooled version I know a bloke who has 8 of these things that he is trying to sell at the moment (and yes I think he is completely mad as well) :wink:

    Cheers

    Biggest problem is the owner buys them then leaves them sitting for years without doing anything to them and thinks that they will go up in price. Bikes like this need to be ridden and well maintaned otherwise you are looking a rather massive bill to start rebuilding engines ect.

    At the end of the day he wants too much for them and they will end up rotting and being worth nothing. Just because you have money it doesn't mean you have brains :rolleyes:

    The Honda CBX looks fantastic, always thought they looked and sounded great.

    Now if you want to talk about well looked after rare bikes a very good friend has these two among others in his garage.
