Hi CTX Members,
My name is Mark (Greyshadow) the CTX caught my eye as it did yours,
I think it's a great idea a hybrid between a cruiser and a sports tourer, ideal. As per my previous post this bike is still 12 months from release in Australia. I have two motorcycles my 2009 Honda VT Shadow C2 and my Kawasaki 500 H1B triple which I purchased in 1976 (this bike is under plastic sheets and blankets for the past 25+ years in my Garage.
I purchased the 750 new in 2009 for my 50th instead of getting my triple back on the road (I simply parked the triple in the garage about 27years ago and did not ride again until 2009. Not being mechanically minded my wife convinced me to buy a new bike and get the dealer to service it etc.
Good idea and it's A Honda (reliable) really like my Shadow.
The CTX is really the first bike apart from the Shadow that has hit accord with me it seems like a great idea, taking the best of a cruiser and sports tourer and creating this hybrid.
Not saying I am going to buy it but certainly very interested in seeing it for sure. Shaft drive would have been better I would have thought.
Thanks for the thoughts and experiences you guys have shared on this site looking forward to checking out more over the next 12 months until I can get to see and ride one.
