Tomarrow I pick up my CX500. Am buying it from a friend who bought it new. It hs not been started in over ten years but has been indoors. Down side is it was in a drywall warehouse, uncovered. It has 681 original miles! He knows nothing about it and thinks it is a 1980. Don't even know what color it is! It will need tires and a battery and other sevice related items. Anyone with working knowledge of this bike, please let me know. Another winter project!
