    Looks as if it could be front wheel drive with a radial engine in the wheel???

    Just imagine that sucker seizing a piston (or two or three) when the rider had it wrung out at speed. :eek1 I wonder how far he'd travel through the air before landing.

    It would be great for track days though - built in tire warmers!

    Kind of a shame....
    I found this "sleeping" in a Nebraska garage.
    11k miles. We rolled it "into the light" for these photos.
    Probably sitting back in a dark corner again by now.

    Does anyone actually own one of these? Being a Can-Am owner in the early 80's and in HS...I would have given my left nut for one!

    Bought one of the new original-style reproduction exhaust systems for the '79 Honda CBX and installed it last week. Pretty good quality - looks exactly like the original exhaust.

    1984 GPz900R. Had been in many boxes for about 10 years after I took it apart. Was about time I put it back together. Only thing left is a carb tune.
