I came very close about a month ago.  Not sure if it will ever happen.  I am way over served as it is!

I may know how you feel, time I had a sell up, when you want to go for a ride and cant make up your mind what to ride and when you do and your half way out the gate and change your mind again and jump on something else, My wife just shakes here head and walks away, she says I only need two bikes but I don't know which two. the rocket 3 and commando I bought new so they stay, you don't sell Vincents, and the Eldorado loves me with all its heart and I need the CBX to keep me feeling young so its not as easy as my wife would like to think. I rest my case Ray

I’ve said it before Ray - your collection is so in line with what I love. The CBX sets everything else off perfectly.

I had 3 CBXs; 79,80, and 81.  I performed full up restorations on the 79, and 80.  Wonderful bikes.  I sold the 79 and 80 years ago in an ill fated attempted purchase of a 77 Ducati 900SS that still leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

The 1980 was my favorite of the bunch.
