![]() I can see what you mean Steve, but I have to say when I worked for Welkom Honda, (in South Africa) back in the 80's I had a Demo bike, that I used as a company bike, (one of many) which was a CX500 Custom. I found it so easy to ride in traffic and around town with adequate low end torque, but a bit uncomfortable at high speed, had to really hang on!!! LOL. Was like the one below: (Better photo)...
![]() And here it is with my wife standing next to it pregnant with my son at the time: (And yes, she rode pillion right up until the day before he was born!). ![]() But to carry on from that at one of our launches we had the "TURBO" version! Had the use of it for a couple of days... ![]() ![]() It was real nice looking aswell..... ![]() ![]() Here is me on the right and my boss Karl, (Centre) and colleague Colin, (Left) - we had some great laughs.... ![]() This was my personal bike at the time, bought it brand new! ![]() Loved riding back in those days, and of course the weather helped! Used to ride from Welkom, (SA) to Harare, (Zim) quite a few times. Couldn't do it now. Could, but would I really want to...???? ![]()
