Those are all so clean and nice! Here in the US, we got the Kaw W650 from 2000-01 and the Honda GB500 single for 1-2 yrs in the late 80's early 90's. That version of the CX650 we did not receive and that may be the best looking one outside of the CX650 Turbo!

Thank you
We in Canada did not get the GB500 but there are a few imports I'm aware of. The CX650E was a European market design that was available here for a couple years in white / blue or black / silver. The W650 was available here for a couple years but didn't sell well ,and having a unique cam drive I hoped it would some day have some value. I don't buy and sell bikes, I keep them and ride them. I just hope to make a little money when I'm done with riding for good!

I really like the GB500. I could have sworn they were sold here for 1 year. :smt017
But I believe you. Only seen a few around. Do you ride around Campbellville ever?

I saw my first GB500 in Key West Fla. in 1992 it was on the showroom floor with a tag that was priced at $2800 brand new. I said right then "I will own one " some dreams do come true :smt002
I have ridden through Campbellville lots of times... but never on the GB.
