- I picked up this 1981 CX500 in Gastonia, NC for $130.
I had to drag it out of the woods, which was a real pain.
I began the little bike make over and I think she turned out great.

I love the simple style to all your builds. Definitely classic looks!
Hey thank you. The Proverbs scripture is from (Proverbs 28:1) The righteous are bold as a lion, but the wicked flee when no one's pursuing them.
Whoa the headlight bolt indicator pro tip just blew my mind!!!
Hey just a little tip when putting on the grips, use rubbing alcohol instead of wd-40 because it evaporates fairly quickly and won’t leave a mess :)
Thats a good looking bike. I like your style.
The same thing happened to me too when I inherited my CX500! I thought it was a 1978, and I looked up (in the same spot you did) when I was scrubbing the headlight and discovered it’s a ‘79! My dad has been thinking it was a ‘78 for decades! Hahaha!
Ruff and ready and really cool.
I have an "82 CX 500 with 40+ original miles up here in Maine, always garaged, it's got a Honda fairing and bags as well, probably too much for this one. Was going to give it to my Grandson but will give him my Triumph instead and maybe sell the CX. I've always thought it would make a great cafe bike, so thanks for this video.
I wouldn't ever give up a cx for anything in this world
Give it to the boy, I have an 82 gl500, naked silverwing. Its a machine that will outlive time
Mmmm don’t know guys it looks good but not that good and he even didn’t turn it on. Not satisfied.
Cool Video Great Bike!
This is literally what I was trying to do with CX I picked up, idk why ur video didn't show up early. Mine will prob end up looking like yours (shitty, but cheap, who fukin cares). Thanks for the information
My mother taught me if you can't say anything good don't say anything at all ! So-------------- .
Where did you get that weldable u bar and how did you do the seat mounts 😢
Looks great nice Cafe, have a blessed week my friend.
Thank you!
Bruh. Life's too short to be angry over something that has literally zero effect on you. Be better bro.
Great build! Currently working on a CX500 myself. Did you end up welding the hoop on to the frame and adding a crossbar to support the seat?
Hi, yes I had to weld it to hold better. I didn't get that on film however.
Joke !!😂😂😂😂😂
Nice modifications. Those CXs are getting tougher to find. Good one to flip. Now I want to see what you’re going to do with that truck. 🤔
I like it, how would you mount rear turn signals?
And how did you mount the seat?
Does the hoop have to be angled to mount the seat?
err, does it run, the tank is bound to rusted to hell inside for starters and the carbs full of shite
Blablabla.........
This build makes me want to puke. Please dont ever touch a bike again
Haha. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
It helps the algorithm.
Rusty crusty bike with very poor paintjob
Wanna sell the old speedo? Lol have the same bike and need one
gran moto, lastima que la destroso👎
No indicators on front I can see a car pulling out in front of you cos he doesn’t know we’re your going ,
How to make a 150 dollar motorcycle and make it worth less 😅

Your a bit rough mate
Pipe wrap is awful.looking crap...also do not spray starting fluid unless you want to destroy the air cut off diaphrams
you lacked more ingenuity friend that motorcycle is very dirty and you also lacked more cleanliness you are too dirty to work hahahahahaha
Absolute word salad
I'll make sure and take your critiques to heart if you promise to finish the third grade.
