Not SOHC but Honda nevertheless. these things come along when your not looking and sometimes you just have to buy it. 1983, 13000 miles from new, all history and one-owner. Mint is not the word.

Very nice CX, better than the older type as it has a auto cam chain tentioner ( which can be re loaded ) and the pulsar's on on the outside of the engine  ;)

The only down side with the EC's was the seat was no where as comfy as the early ones. If you ever get any knocking sound from the front engine area (sounds lumpy) it is always the alloy boss in the plastic fan.

All MOT's come with the bike, waxoyled from new by the now 81 year old owner and unmarked original condition. Wasn't looking to buy any bike, let alone a CX but couldn't resist. Not ofetn they come along in this condition.
