Excellent bikes Bill, good luck with them.

           Thank you for the compliments Doug, mine isn't a Yoshi fitted motor, but still has some of that Ferrari like sound though (when revving)! Great sound, at that! 8) ;)
Cold natured thing! to! :) That engine sure is AWESOME! IT still is cool to just stand back and look at. 8)  I hope no one gets the idea that I am boosting about having it, I'm just proud, that's all (and amazed that I DO have it, as well! :o ;)  Thanks, I have a picture of the GPZ, the CBX, the 80' CB750K w/sidecar and the 80' CB650C, all lined up and I am impressed to see them like that myself. The 750 and the 650 need work to put them anywhere near the other 2, but they still look pretty good. :)

        I don't know the history behind the GPZ, I bought it off ebay, from a guy in Oklahoma, who is a Kawasaki big 4 fanatic. He's STILL got several. It Does look GOOD. doesn't it? :)  Now, the CBX was redone by my buddy ( who I ended up buying IT from) and he DID do a fantastic job on it. 8) Every time I went to see him, I just could hardly take my eyes off of that CBX, so when HE offered e a deal on it, I lumped on it! ;D

        I don't have to tell you that I AM quite proud of them myself. :)

        Too bad the Honda can't be a BOTM nominee. ::) Just messing with ya! :D ;)

         Thing is, the weather's starting to turn off and I am NOT going to get the CBX out unless weather is suitable. I can handle getting the GPZ out, but the CBX is all detailed out and it would take forever to get t cleaned back up.  Now, AFTER I get the GPZ repainted and detailed out, I might have to rely on the CB650 or the 80' CB750K. I don't know WHAT I'll do, if I manage to get them ALL redo.  :-\ Guess I'll just have to drive the minivan! ???  ::)   :D   ;)

       Here's a shot of the MAIN ones!

                                             

     
       Followed by a couple of very poor shots of the Super Hawk, during "Mock-Up".

                                             



                                    Yeah, JUST a mock-up and those gastank panels are gonna be painted, unless I can get a replate VERY CHEAPLY DONE.

Bill, that CBX is amazing.

Is it a 79'?

Not asking how much you payed of course,  ;)  but what is the going rate for an A-condition CBX in the USA these days?

           Hey TG, Good to see ya here. Naw, it's an 80' model. Still has the good looks, larger wheels, but slightly detuned engine ( still was supposed to be capable of about an 11.?? quatermile time though @ a little over 100 (111.??)mph) and a slower speedometer, which means, if you get over 85, you'll probably bend the needle on the speedometer. Sounds tough and runs GREAT!!!!

       I HAVE seen a 79' with a Buy It Now Price of $12,000 something.

         Right now, there are only 81' & 82's on there and a Blackbird  . Check it out!   http://motors.shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=CBX&_sacat=6024&_trksid=p4506.m270.l1313&_dmpt=US_motorcycles&_odkw=&_osacat=6024
 thamks for the comments, I AM right proud (not Boasting, just proud ;) )
