The International CBX Owners Association

In 1977 when I was 12 we moved to a new town and the family across the street had 2 boys around 7 or 8 years older than me. The older guy had a Ducati 900ss and the younger one had a CB750F and a CB350Four. On more than a few summer days I'd stare out my bedroom window and covet those Hondas. It was a small town and most of the cool older guys had motorcycles. There was one person in town (rip) that had a CBX. He took me for a couple rides on that bike and I was hooked. One ride in particular with me sitting backwards facing the rear. Stupid, crazy stuff.
So, here we are today with a garage full of bikes to play with and keep me out of trouble. My recent a 1979 CBX with 5k miles which the previous owner disassembled to do the carbs than got sick and sold it. I'm probably going to need a little help putting it together.lol The carbs just went out to Mike Nixon for a rebuild. I'm no fool.

By "rip", do you mean rest in piece, or Rip Parsells?

Welcome to the site, Dave.
One less thing to worry about with Mr. Nixon doing the carbs.
Feel free to post a pic or three of your bike when you get it sorted out.

He committed suicide a few years ago.
