SubscriberTrying to stay out of trouble I wanted a project I could sink my teeth into.
Something on which I can learn restoration and mechanicing skills, without having the worries of having a daily driver/rider out of action for an unforseen period of time.
So I bought this:
Yeah I know I know. Not even a mother could love it, dressed like that !
I've only had it a few days but it's looking better already...

Enjoy it Vlad, I had one many years ago, they are quite the "gentleman's tourer".
Very civilised and comfortable to ride.
As opposed to the radically modded Suzuki "waterbottle" in my sig.
Major part of the heart and soul of AULRO.comThat's a waterbottle? My Gawd!Originally Posted by shorty943
Vlad, shorty's right. It'll be fun.
The CX500 is under-rated by those who haven't had one. Er, wait. I've never owned one either — but you know what I mean.
Now I'm off to the post office to collect my GSXR 4-piston brake upgrade kit for the V-Strom.

SubscriberNice project Vlad - did you find a solution for the headlight? The headlight brackets of my Kawasaki Z650 (82) look like they would do the job - I would imagine a lot of bikes of this vintage would have similar mounting systems - maybe a visit to the local motorcycle wrecker would yield results?
Cheers - Gav
