This might explain why they are so popular. I tried to buy one several years ago restored...Wished I had tried harder..
1979 Honda CBX A 1000cc 6 cylinder motorcycle which was the first over 100 HP production motorcycle. It had to be detuned in Europe to be legal. One of Hondas engineering exercises. As one journalist put it, "6 cylinders, 24 valves and no common sense". Production lasted only from 1979 to 1982 because they were not popular. Oddly enough, good ones are now in high demand.
