SUMMARY
Classic 1980s performance nostalgia, Honda's 497cc CX500 Turbo.
DESCRIPTION
- In the early 1980s, Yamaha was battling Honda for supremacy in the motorcycle market. Honda management decided to show the world that the company was capable of a design and engineering feat that was far ahead of what any presumptuous rivals could do. That showpiece was the CX500 Turbo
- Produced for one year only, the CX500 Turbo was Honda's first production bike to feature programmed fuel-injection and computer control of the turbocharging, ignition and numerous other advanced features
- The 497cc, 80° V-twin was mounted longitudinally in the frame and its single turbo produced 19psi of boost, resulting in 82bhp
- This example is in unrestored, original condition and confirmed running with a current MOT
- UK-registered and supplied with a current V5C and some paperwork
