I owned an 82 for several years and really loved that bike. I'd had bikes of different kinds since the early 70s and the CBX was my last. It was the bike I wanted in the late 70s but couldn't afford (and probably just as well) so when I came across one in the mid 90s I snatched it up and spent several years catching up on the fun. But then, and I can't explain it, I just lost interest in riding and eventually sold the bike so someone else could enjoy it. I wonder sometimes where it went and how it's doing.
Anyway, nice to see y'all. Do you have a picture forum or thread? I'd love to spend some time looking at CBX pics. Here's those pics I was talking about.

I do have one regret, of sorts, about not keeping the bike. Another Honda product that I wanted when it was new but couldn't afford was the Acura NSX. A couple years after I finally let go of the CBX, I fulfilled that old desire and bought myself an NSX which I'm still driving, and probably always will. It's just as awesome a car as the CBX was a motorcycle. It would have been cool to have them both at the same time.
Ride safe!
