New CBX owner in the Netherlands: Everpix

Today I've become 57 years old but I already gave myself a present, which is a CBX 1000 from 1982. 
I'm living in Leusden, the Netherlands and my job is certification of lifts/elevators and safety components.
In my live I had several one, two, three and four cilinders, but this is my first six cilinder.
I started with a Yamaha XT 500 in 1984 and I got totally 27 bikes before, so this is the 28th, my second Honda.
Aprilia: 6
Ducati: 4
HD: 1
Honda: 2
Kawasaki: 2
KTM: 6
Suzuki: 1
Triumph: 4
Yamaha: 2
The CBX has been rebuilt into a streetfighter (sorry for the purists
), but I also have all the original parts with it, so it can always be made original again.
The complete front is from a Suzuki GSX-R, the swing arm from a Honda VFR 750, the rear wheel from a Honda VFR 800 and the head lights are from a Triumph Speed Triple.
At this moment I brought the front fender, the side caps and rear end to a painting shop. They will be painted in the same colours as the tank. To be continued!
