Hi my name is aaron im from Springfield, Missouri.

I just Traded my bow for a 1978 CX500, turns over but guy said it ran 3 months ago, its in very good shape. It has 15k on it. Im hoping to turn it into cafe racer. So far all i need is a new throttle tube and i have to coat the gas tank from rust. I was wondering if it was a good trade, my bow was worth around 300 dollars, i was unsure cause i could not drive it and if anyone has any first time pointers on working on them feel free to let me know before i mess it up.







that should be a picture link of it hope it works. and thanks for your input.

There are a lot of guys on hear that will be able to give you some great advice on how to get it running and where to start.

But it looks like a beautiful bike, and in great shape. So any luck it should just involve cleaning the carbs and getting some dust out.

If the engine has not been abused and it's a genuine 16k and you go through the bike then you got a great deal

Thats a good looking bike, looks like a good deal to me. And no cash out of pocket is a big bonus in my book. Have fun!
