Basement find winter project
Just brought home an 1980 CBX with under 12,000 miles on it. It was sitting under sheets in a basement in Pittsburgh, PA since maybe 2004-5? It's in such nice shape it will be a recommission rather than a restore. I think the aging/wear on the few parts that show it add character. Biggest challenge will be the gas tank but hopefully the steps Dave McMunn gave me will do the trick.

Welcome to the site, dbouterse.
That's a beautiful bike. The red reflector on the seat instead of the strap seems out of place but an easy fix.
