    That's what I call it.I could not afford the real one.
    Bruce has an awesome trike .Thought I would share my little bike with you.
    I bought it in 2007.It is a 2007 Honda 250 Rebel.It has low mileage on it(0 1915.2)
    because I keep it in my shop in winter.Yes that is me on it.HAHAHAHAH

    Thank you Bruce.I had a Bike when I was 16, but I traded it for a boat.
    In the middle 80's I got another bike ,it was used.
    It was a 1979 Honda CX 500.Shaft drive,water cooled,full jamer,and saddle bags.
    Had it for a while but the dual carbs kept me down.I could not get them to sync right so I got rid of it.

    Nice bike! Best of all, that little beast yields some GREAT gas mileage! I get about 35mpg with my VTX1800 and I bet you get TWICE that on yours!

    Ha ! I had a CX500 Honda too ! :) But mine was a 1980 I had it for 21 years . ended up giving it to my oldest son in 2002 The longest trip i took on it was from Evansville Indiana to St. Petersburg Florida and back home . 2 days down and one day back . I also built a 750-4 Chopper back in the day .

    I have had lots of bikes but these were my 2 Favorites .
    Here's a couple pictures . Sharon is on my 500 right before we took it down to my son.
    Thats me and my youngest son , Now 38 on my chopper .:oldman:

    Hey Crash, Got any Pic's of your Bike ???

    I never understood why anyone would want to spend the money on a Harley. We've got great innovations like OHC, EFI, and liquid cooling, but H-D likes to stick in the 50's with their antiquated engines.

    I currently ride this on the street
    Honda Shadow Sabre - the bike Harley wishes it were!

    And when the path isn't paved, I ride this
    KTM 620

    But, in keeping with the thread, I've also had two CX500's
    A '79 Deluxe:

    and an '82 Custom:
