The Honda Motor Company made their first motorcycle in 1949 and within 10 years had become the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world, going on to make over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products. The launch of the four-cylinder CB750 in 1969 ushered in the 'Superbike' boom in the 1970s and Honda's crowning glory of the era was the amazing 6-cylinder CBX1000, still one of the few 6-cylinder motorcycles ever produced.

This 1979 Honda CBX was purchased by the late vendor in the early 1980s. He used the Honda for many long journeys in his ownership, showing just 20,030 miles, which is believed to be genuine. It was taken off the road in 1994 and has been stored since then because he had purchased a new Honda CB 900F and wanted to keep the CBX in good order. The CBX was started from time to time to keep it in good order, but it last ran several years ago. Full recommissioning will be required before use. It comes complete with its original exhaust system, a current V5C, and several MOT certificates.
