for those of you that have M.B.S. (multiple bike syndrome) and have the "silver wing" models.
as our sponsors also have supplies for those bikes and they are popular with the "wing" crowd.

those are JUST what i was looking for when i asked about a silverwing forum some time ago! big t, your lil' wing is SWEET! 'cept for the pipes, i dont like loud. just not my cup of tea, but it looks fantastic!
will this forum have its own for sale/wanted section, or will it just get bunched in with the other ones?

I have four CX's 500's. All of them running. The 1978 from my signature is my first bike. Its in very good condition. Tagged and registered and ready to go (when the wing won't! lol). Also have one that is almost identical but a 1981 model. Just bought it last week. Needs TLC but its all there. Not tagged yet. Then another one from 1981 that is an american model (just one brake disc) in very good condition and up for sale. And a 1981 Custom model, also tagged and registered and running. The rat bike, but it runs and has tags, too.
Enough ramblin'
Have a great weekend ya'll!

1976 Honda GL1000 (put in shed, threw away key)
1978 Honda CX500 (the winter bike)
2001 Aprilia SL1000 (daily driver, my pride & joy)
And a bunch of projects not worth mentioning...
The CX is my favorite bike of all time. I have an 80 and an 81 custom. Sounds like nothing else, runs like nothing else, takes the corners at a speed that a Wing would never attempt. Took this one down to the bare frame this last winter to clean, lube, touch up, etc.. Father/daughter tour this summer with me on the Oldwing and her on this CX.
