The CB500T's claim to fame was that it was Honda's one millionth motorcycle, and was ridden off the assembly line by Soichiro Honda himself.

Love the orange model with brown lattice seat - there is a picture of two parked up together on here somewhere - will try and find it.

I've got a 400 Superdream in the garage waiting its turn for a few jobs and a Honda CBX with the steering in bits, new head bearings and front end freshen up.
Cheers Chris J.

Whilst out on my old 500T, some years ago, I somehow managed to catch the starter button. The starter chain managed to jump and jam everything up. A rapid stop was followed by a long push home! It wouldn't kick up because everything had jammed. I'm sweating, just thinking about it! Mike

Try again! gb250 3 by kalwidget, on Flickr I do have this. 1984(?) Honda GB250 Clubman. The Honda factory take on cafe-racers based (loosely) on the CBX250RS(e) Its been off the road since I detonated the engine, mostly because parts have been a nightmare to source. The new engine hasn't run properly since it was fitted, replacing the carburettor a couple of times hasn't helped. Although it occurred to me a couple of nights ago that I didn't change the CDi, so I'm thinking that is next.
