Model: CX 500 DeLuxe
Bouwjaar: 1980
Bijzonderheden: The running gear is, or was, a 1980 CXdeluxe. The tank is from a 2001 Honda Shadow Spirit. The front fender is from a CX650 Custom, the forward controls were fabricated by me. The rear fender is from a Harley Davidson Softail. The tank and rear fender mounts were fabricated by me, as well as the battery holder and cover. The frame was completely disasembled and powdercoated black. The wheels, triple trees, and handlebar switchboxes were powdercoated "Near chrome".
The radiator sidecovers, valve covers, and forward controls were all chromed. The seat is a stock springer solo, 9" wide by about 13" long. The dash is a stock speedo from the Shadow, wired to the harness for the oil, turn, hi beam, and water temp indicators.
The temp sender had to be changed from a gauge to a light switch. I had to modify the electronic sending unit to fit the front wheel for the speedo. The paint is 2003 Ford "Chrome Yellow". I run a "beehive" style taillight used on early HD's and small bullet turn indicators for the back. No signals up front. I fabricated a light bracket for the 6 1/2" front HD style Headlight. All the mods cost about $2500 USD, give or take a couple hundred. I ended up with a clean little 883 sportster killer, with a unique look!
