Seller Description
Beautiful and very clean 1979 Honda in Pegasus Silver with 2,075 miles since restoration. Please note, true mileage before complete restoration is unknown. Starts very easily and runs strong. Everything is ready to go riding or to be a great collectors piece.
Veryreasonable reserve. Here is what is known about the bike.
Ihad been seeking a 100% stock and complete 1979 CBX in Silver for many years to add to my collection of 12 bikes. (Wife calls it adisease.)Bike was owned by a gentlemen in Florida who passed awayaround 2010. Bike had a complete nut and bolt restoration completed by Tim's CBX International in Georgia. (Verified by Bill @ Tim's). Tim's early restorations, when OEM Honda parts were more readilyavailable, are regarded by many as the best CBX restorations to be found. The paint work is fantastic. Chrome is bright.Spouse eventually sold the bike to Louis Mintrone,distributor of CBX parts in Florida in 2017. I purchased this Bike from Louis Mintrone in 2017. I shipped the bike to Preston Marks of CBX Motorworks. Although the bike had very few miles since restoration, I had Preston go completely through the bike again as it had set forawhile. Carburetors were Flushed, Rebuilt and Sync'ed. All fluids including brakefluids were flushed. Amsoilmotor oil and brake fluids were used. Many rubber intake boots, seals and gaskets were replaced. New Battery installed. New Swing arm bushings were installed. New Bridgestone Battlax tires, in the correct size were mounted and balanced.Bike is in stock conditions with a few small exceptions. Brake lines are braided Stainless steel instead of the stock rubber hoses. Brake lines are better than Stock so I kept them. Dyna coils and electronic ignition were installed during the restoration to eliminate the weak stock coils and ignition points. Progressive Shocks are installed in the rear for better handling. I have theoriginal OEM shocks (see photograph) that is included with the sale.I located a reproduction owners manual and a stock tool kit that is included.
The tool kit is complete with theexception of the OEM Shock spanner wrench is missing. Issues that are know are very , very minor. The right side exhaust muffler has some minor rust "pin holes" on the very bottom of the exhaust collector. Veryminor but it is there for full disclosure. (see Photo). Left side muffler is solid. Also a small fin, under the motor and next to the drain plug is chipped. (see Photo) Veryminor but again, full disclosure. That is everything known. Bike isavailable for preview.Sold with a clean Texas title. Title mileage is marked "EXEMPT" as is standard in Texas for vehicle of this age and again, mileage before restoration is unknown. Since the bike has been in my collection, it has been stored in a climatecontrolledgarage, under a cover with a Battery tender.I am selling the CBX because after many years of enjoyment, I am selling my entire collection of 12 motorcycles. This bike is the next to last to be sold. This CBX and my Norton Commando are the last 2 bikes to be offered for sale. It is time for someone else to enjoy. The bike is located in a Northern Suburb of Dallas. Should you want more information, message me with your phone number or email address and I will get back to you. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. As I have done my best todescribe thisbeautiful bike, it is 40 years old so nowarranties. Upon pick up of the bike, if it is not asdescribed, I willrefund all deposits.On Mar-07-19 at 17:32:48 PST, seller added the following information:Update: I have received ebay messages from several members of the CBX collectors community. I learned quite a bit about CBX’s. Here is one thing I learned. It is not possible to match frame numbers and motor numbers of Honda’s of this vintage. Honda has never released or possibly never tracked this information. The frame number indicates the bike was built in Japan during June 1978 as a 1979 model. The engine number was built in Japan during November 1978 again, as a 1979 model. Due to the gap in production dates, it is possible this is a replacement motor. Several theory’s on this are possible. Early CBX’s were prone to hydrolock due to leaking petcocks. Possible the motor was replaced under warranty. The other theory was the motor was changed during the restoration. Third theory is this is the original motor.
I am not sure or aware of any of this information. I do believe in full disclosure when selling my bikes on eBay and I thought I would relay this information sent to me by CBX advocates for bidders to receive.
