    This is the ultimate bike. Red '79-'80 twin shock Honda CBX, w/ the 6-into-1 DG header/exhaust. It doesn't get any better. Looks awesome, sounds triumphant, pulls hard. Thank you Kaplan for making it sing! Bravo!

    I had a red CBX here in UK from 2000 - 2003. It was excellent; but yours is a sight & sound to behold. Well done! Honda CBX is probably STILL the best looking design of motorcycle in the world.

    An absolutely beautiful machine. Thank you. I like that it is mostly original. It must have been nearly impossible to obtain OEM side covers and turn signals. I bought a new silver 79 CBX back in the day. I was able to adjust my valves without tilting the engine down. I still have the special tool used to depress the valve shim bucket to allow for swapping shims.

  • @notmyname3883
    @notmyname3883 Месяц назад

    I've owned three of 'em.
    I remember when I was a kid, though, and this older young guy up the highway had one. We could hear him coming down the hill to our river valley in the summertime with our doors open. I'd run out on the deck to hear him and (hopefully) catch a glimpse of him. I knew he was going over 100mph when he came down the hill. Then he'd hit the bridge and start the small climb up the other side. He still had THREE GEARS to go! And he hit every one of 'em. They say these sound like Ferraris but if Ferraris sounded like this I'd own three of them!
    NOTHING like the CBX 1047.
    Thanks, Mr. Honda (and Steve Be****) for inspiring my love of that CBX!

  • @johnnygeorgopoulos4072
    @johnnygeorgopoulos4072 9 месяцев назад +2

    To this day, there hasn't been a 4 stroke street bike that's sounded better than a CBX with a 6into1 exhaust.... preferably an Over Racing or Pro Drag full titanium 6into1.... usually like old DG's, but while they offer a very distinct tone with their CBX 6into1, nothing compares to the other two I mentioned....but either of those exhausts cost more than the CBX did new, but is it worth it for the sound and to keep her all Japanese? Yes 😅
    Edit: BTW, the beautiful candy red was called Candy Glory Red..... which is the best color available for these, sadly Candy Jade wasn't available, because that would've given Candy Glory Red a run for it's money 😑
    Another edit: you really want to hear this sing? One of my above mentioned exhausts, and a 6 Pack of Keihin FCR's 📯📯📯📯📯📯
    Ok last edit: dude, if you don't need to, do not sell your CBX.... you'll definitely regret it like I regret selling my CBR-XX, and to clarify something above since later in the video you said this was $4500+ new, ok, the exhausts I mentioned are slightly cheaper than that, $2500-3k depending on which, not including tax or shipping 😅

  • @scottb8175

    Candy Glory Red. The original paint was 11 coats of lacquer, staring with a silver base coat. Middle was an orange metallic color, final coats more darker candy red, last color coat was a candy red tinted clear. Final coat was a clear. I have a full set of NOS red lacquer bodywork and seat saved for my early 79 CBX.

    Just a note, the buyer financed the CBX and paid a hefty premium for that. The OTR price was around $3299 new in 79. They are worth big buck for a mint stock original example. Goodluck with the sale, p.s, drop the idle speed 1100 rpm is tops.
