The Appeal

The Honda CBX1000 is one of the most celebrated Japanese motorcycles ever produced. Its 1,047cc inline-six engine, a configuration inspired by grand prix racing, made it one of the most technically ambitious and thrilling machines of its era, and fine examples are increasingly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.

This 1981 Supersport variant is a particularly compelling proposition. It has been part of a collection where it has reportedly always received careful attention, and the vendor notes that there are accompanying invoices to reflect a significant level of investment over the years. Most notably, the engine was reportedly stripped and rebuilt in 2025 by Sik Center, a well-regarded CBX specialist, and a service followed in February 2026. The vendor notes the clutch was also replaced in 2025 and is reported to be functioning well.

Visually, the CBX presents smartly. The paintwork has been completely resprayed, and the vendor reports that the original chrome work remains in very good order. The brakes are described by the vendor as being in very good condition. A notable addition is the 6-in-6 Pipe Masters exhaust system, valued at €3,600.

For the collector or enthusiast seeking one of motorcycling's true icons in well-maintained and carefully presented condition, this CBX1000 Supersport warrants serious attention.
