About this deal
As it was, I was quite satisfied that I had had a good couple of years out of the Maggot and that it had justified its purchase cost. The CX series features a crankshaft configuration [aligned transversely] across the frame of the bike, similar to the Moto Guzzi layout. So it’s no wonder that the CX650 Turbo was considered to have introduced; a whole new way of looking at the concept of superbikes.
The fuel-injection control system was substantially revised for the CX650 Turbo, and the rear shock received an update as well by adding a manually operated damping control mechanism in addition to the "air" pre-load of the previous model. In the end they gathered all their old bits together and produced the Eurosport, put a 400cc CX engine in and sold in the domestic market with a few being exported to New Zealand.Just how many came to Australia seams difficult to determine as they were imported by several importers. It made no sense to continue to produce any but the most popular models, so the CX650T was taken out of production.

The 1978 CX500 Standard had a large fuel tank, stepped seat, a round brake fluid reservoir and a plastic mini-fairing that was thought to look unusual at the time. On boost, it accelerates like an F-4 being blasted off the flight deck of the USS Enterprise by a steam catapult. The Honda had been imported from Italy by the previous owner in 2017 (see documents on file relating to its purchase from Italy and the registration process together with a photocopied Italian title). Having used the old gaskets I was not that surprised when coolant and oil started spurting out but clever use of Araldite soon solved that.
