How big is your storage shed? :) Nearby in Beamsville might be worth a look. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-motorcycle-other/hamilton/cb550-motor/1519969389

Very nice! sohc4.net is an excellent site and has a fairly active Classifieds section if you run into any trouble with your bike. http://forums.sohc4.net/

If it isn't the Turbo and turns out to be the Seca RJ model shown in post #14, they have an 8" headlight. A complete 8" headlight, bucket and ring in good shape can be worth a couple hundred bucks.

At the time.....fast, great handling and relatively cheap. Still applies.

A buddy had one for a couple years and put many kms on it after he had the got the carbs sorted. Slides, i think? Apparently it is a common problem. Some good info in this thread including owner websites. https://advrider.com/f/threads/1993-suzuki-gsx1100g-shaft-drive-opinions-advice.154809/

Thanks. The red '79 has Sun spoked wheels. The grey '81 has black powdercoated Boomerang Comstars from a Euro CB900F.

Thanks for the info. https://www.hindle.com/

I think that is a good price for the '81 listed on Kijiji. Not a big fan of the fairings and saddlebags they do turn into a cool naked bike.

Thanks for the compliments, Gents. Always liked the look of spokes and with these Sun rims i can get a 150/110 tire size combo instead of the stock bicycle sized 130/100.

Out on the weekend for the first time. It's a pig but it looks cool and sounds cool.

A couple guys from Ohio racing one in AHRMA. Certainly not on the scale of the Curtis FJs https://www.mrcbx.com/

Happened to be on Hwy 8 down in Jordan Hollow last summer when Jan went through on the CBX. The sound echoing through the Valley was fantastic. Didn't know he had found another engine. He called in Dec. but my spare is in pieces.

Seeing more cyclists than cars can be scary. Is that an 800 or 1100cc?

Dark comedy, social commentary and some "don't go down there" moments. I thought it was great.

From Sittlers, the hot cross buns around Easter and strawberry/rhubarb pie in the early summer were excellent.

Lash, your bike is gorgeous. Are those repro pipes or are you lucky enough to have the originals?

Thanks for the comments, Gents. It is a big, heavy brute but it looks cool, sounds cool and is fun to ride.

Half teh season over but finally got the '81 engine in the '79 CBX. These lumps weigh 225#.

Sir, you are correct. My mistake.

Only see the T4 on sale? I only use the T6. https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/rotella-t-15w-40-diesel-motor-oil-18-9-l-0287932p.html
