CX650turbo

Cracking bike, he must be local to me, I've ridden that Via Gellia road more than a few times!, certainly made a nice job of tidying the bike.

Latter bit of that is up near Eastwood, as is the part where he gave it the berries on the turbo. Yes very local, as was the Derbyshire accent!

Oh you mean when he said "aye up mi ducks av yu seen mi nu Onda tirbo" 😄

Great video ULi  and lovely introduction to such an iconic model I had never taken much notice of before. I do remember a supplier  of ours in Rotherham who did prototype plastic moulding saying he had one that he found stored in someone's front room.

Wonder if the guy in the video clip stopped en-route for a 'cob'     (that's maybe a Rundstück to you Uli) . To myself and 'Orcadian' it would be a 'breadcake'.

Cob of course being the correct term, anyway we digress....

This is turning into one of those sconns - scones discussion.
Scone (rhymes with stone) being the correct pronunciation of course.

Sorry Mike you are just plain wrong!!!

There's always one.

Yep, and in this case it's YOU! Down here in Devon (where cream teas were invented over 1,000 years ago!) you would be publicly ripped limb from limb for uttering such heresy!

I do like a bit of controversy.  I especially like telling foreigners they drive on the wrong side.

That's fair enough, as it's a fact, I love winding complete numpties up, especially the criminally insane ones that like, or worse BUY Italian bikes, then come on a  Honda forum moaning about the problems/unreliability/cost of repairs of their shitalian junk and expect sympathy!!!!

Thanks for the link to my add on that forum, Ash.

That turbo in North GA (no idea where this is, USA?)  is a non-Euro spec bike with silver wheels, black fork legs,non-mirror turbo script, side indicators...
Nice bike nevertheless.

Prices in USA are far lower than here.  As usual.
