1980 Honda CBX 1000

Sold for $16,373 on 2/19/19

This 1980 Honda CBX 1000 is finished Candy Glory Red and powered by a 1,047cc DOHC inline-six paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The bike shows just 4,612 miles and has resided in the seller’s private collection for the past 7 years. It was Honda’s flagship bike is 1980, and factory equipment includes alloy Comstar wheels and triple disc brakes. A new battery was installed 3 months ago, at which point the oil was also changed. This CBX is being offered with the factory tool pouch, owner’s manual, a valve shim assortment, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.

Two colors were available for the CBX in 1980, black or Candy Glory Red, and both feature a center black tank stripe and side covers. The factory graphics package includes pinstriping and Super Sport designations on the fuel tank.

The CBX does not utilize a front downtube. Instead, the engine is stressed-member and hung from a double backbone. Braking is managed by triple discs, and the suspension includes a conventional front fork and twin shock swingarm. The 5-spoke Comstar wheels come wrapped in a set of older tires, and the seller recommends replacement before the bike is ridden any considerable distance.

The instrument cluster houses a 10k rpm tachometer, voltage gauge, and a federally-mandated 85-mph speedometer. 4,612 miles are shown on the odometer, approximately 70 of which have been added by the seller over the past 7 years.

The 1,047cc 24-valve double-overhead camshaft inline-six was inspired by Honda’s RC-series race bikes from the 1960s. To keep the inline-six cylinder engine narrow, the primary drive is located at the center of the crankshaft, and the alternator is mounted inboard behind the cylinders and crankcase. Induction is through six inward-angled 28mm carburetors, and the factory 3-1 dual exhaust system remains installed.

The owner’s manual, factory tool pouch, and an assortment of valve adjustment shims are included with the sale.
