It has been a minute since I've seen a CBX550F.

Love the weird Japanese engineering of those 80s CBs.

One of those bike we've decided to keep just becase it has been a damn long minute since we've seen one too!

And yes all the inboard brake jokes

I had an '83 CB1000c for several years. You know, the one with a high/low sub transmission for 10 gear ratios.

I still want a cbx1000 6cyl.
