I'd ride it too, but I think you better be wearing some raingear, because with those half fenders you'll get as much water up the front of those tires as you do down the back!!!
GOOD looking ride though!!

 Man I could care less what anyone does with a CBX..they have the grossest tank seams and motormounts..

 Ever since I seen a CBX trike at Sturgis in the. 80,s, I always thought they look better in a trike than a 2 wheeler..

I saw that beast at Barber this year, someone spent a few bucks building it.  A bit over the top for me but it sure drew a crowd.   :o

That would give any CBX fan the shingles. It's making my eyes bleed. Turn away, Bill!

I've seen this bike in a magazine before and except for the oversize wheels, I dig it.

... and I'm not a CBX purist because I agree with 754 that they look better as a trike.  To me, the stock bike looks almost as cartoonish and over the top as the Boss Hogs.  The engine seems more appropriately sized sitting in a trike configuration.

Mebbe he just took off too fast and the fenders slid backwards..

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Holy crap - I just noted the 10-1/2 large starting bid. Wow, he must really like it a lot.
