"Honda CBX1000" (1978) 'A' red with black wheels.
The 1978 Honda CBX1000A, here in red, is a
motorcycle that captured the imagination of enthusiasts with its sheer
engineering audacity and striking design. At the heart of the CBX1000 is
a 1,047cc inline-six engine, a masterpiece of mechanical engineering
that delivered 105bhp and a top speed of around 140mph. The
engine, with its six carburettors and six exhaust pipes, was not just
powerful but also visually stunning, dominating the bike's profile and
earning it a reputation as one of the most distinctive motorcycles of
its time. The red paintwork of this CBX1000A version adds a layer of
sophistication to its aggressive stance, highlighting the bike's clean
lines and polished chrome accents. The CBX1000A was known for its
exceptional smoothness, thanks to the inherent balance of the
six-cylinder engine, and its handling was surprisingly agile for such a
large machine. The silver Honda CBX1000A remains a legendary model,
celebrated for its groundbreaking design, powerful performance, and the
sheer presence that only a six-cylinder motorcycle can command.
