HONDA CX500 1978-82
Who would have thought that the humble Honda CX500 would turn out to be such a versatile platform for customization? When it first appeared Cycleworld said it looked "like an aircompressor", the Brits call it the "Plastic Maggot" and the Germans kindly refer to it as "Guellepumpe", which is the tank pump trailer that German farmers use to spray cowshit on their land.
Ten years ago you couldn't give these bikes away but the cafe phenomenon has given the CX a new lease on life. Even renowned builders such as Johann Keyser at Moto Motivo are turning these odd watercooled, shaft driven, push-rod V-twins into very clean, custom bikes.
It takes considerable skill to make a CX500 look this lithe and good! We've seen a lot of CX500 builds but almost all of them use a stock tank. Johann used our BSAT3 fuel tank and carefully mounted it onto the CX frame. The tank completely transforms the look of the bike! Subframe and seat unit were custom made. We have several seat options for the standard frame. Call us today for a recommendation!

CR7501 - 68/72 HONDA CR750 FAIRING
CR750 Full fairing
Exact replica of the kit fairing assembly that Honda offered for the CB750's. This classic one-piece race fairing assembly is extremely popular for vintage conversions. A tall fairing assembly works well with most street bike chassis; the open belly pan at the bottom allows you to adjust the width of the bottom. You can suck the fairing in real tight if you are installing on a 350 or 450 twin or spread it out wide if you are putting it on a 6 cylinder CBX. This is a very versatile and universal fairing assembly for a lot of applications. This is the classis cafe fairing that you need for your conversion.
