This 1979 Honda CX500D has been in my family since 1981. We are the second owner of this bike and I have performed all of the maintenance on it myself since acquiring it. I properly winterize it each fall, and each spring it starts willingly. Motor oil, differential fluid, and brake fluid have all been changed regularly. Tires have about 2,500 miles on them. Front brake pads and rear brake shoes were replaced 1,800 miles ago. Mechanical seal has been changed a couple times in its life, most recently about 1,200 miles ago. Cosmetically, the bike shines up nice and has minor dings and scratches typical of a nearly 40 year old motorcyle, but looks great for its age.This bike was taken on an 800 mile round trip excursion in recent years and ran great yielding 55 miles per gallon, but is mostly ridden for errands casually on weekends. A Vetter "Vindicator" fairing and mounting hardware along with a rear back rest with luggage rack are included. I will consider delivering the bike to an address within reasonable distance with fair negotiation. Bike needs nothing else to be a daily rider and will faithfully serve its new owner as a daily commuter or even as a collection peice. Not many of these left in comparable running condition. I have two other bikes and need space, and two kids in college so sadly, this old friend must go.
Get your hands on a classic! This bike has a transverse V-twin liquid cooled engine, with a 5 speed shaft drive transmission. These features are hard to find on anything but a premium bike!Other details include mag wheels. Has an electric start but can also be easily push started. Leather seat, fits two. Storage under seat holds tools and spare parts. Original owners manual included. Great project bike. Main issues are: needs new stator coils on the alternator and a new battery. Engine hasn't been run in a while. Will need some work to get running. Misc other repairs may be needed. Being sold as is.Owner doesn't ride anymore and needs to make space in the garage.
