Honda Cx500 Review. This review is actually for the 1981 Honda CX500C I just couldnt figure out how to write a review on a bike not listed.

Buyers were a bit skeptical at first and early problems with the cam chain tensioner and alternator probably didnt help fire CX500 sales. Honda had recently progressed to no1 in the bike production league and were full of surprises during the era CBX CB400 twin automatic for example but nothing split opinion more than the CX. And the CX500 is the easiest and often the most fun of all of them although like all children I spread my love equally. The electronic ignition system was separate. WHEN a bike within minutes of its 1978 launch acquires the tag Plastic Maggot its safe to assume the machine has been less than well received by the masses. The funny thing is that it has no real classic styling cues.
1978 was a big year for Honda.

Therefore Honda figured the CX500 would be the best base platform as it could handle the extra 40 increase in power and heat through turbocharging. As there was a hole in the expansion chamber the radiator could not be topped up.
