I am SO giving that to my neighbor! He rides a stock CX daily and he has a parts bike just ripe for a conversion! I'd use different bars ...Here it is!
Here is proof that ANYTHING is possible. (Not for wimps!)
Just think of what this guy to do for an old R100RS!

Just how angry at your poor neighbor are you?!?!
Have you seen a stock CX500? Even this is doing it a favor.
...At the same time, maintainability has remained excellent (even for home mechanics) and the basic character and configuration has been evolutionary. The same principles I use to maintain my /2 will work on my hexheads. It's really quite remarkable.
Curious -- what do you think is that much harder about hexheads? I have both, and don't find much difference in complexity or level of difficulty -- some things are harder/easier with one vs. the other, but overall seems about the same to me.I disagree. The oilheads are much more complex in terms of maintenance for the home mechanic. I hope to get there, but it'll still be a couple years. Airheads, on the other hand are pretty straight-forward for the home mechanic in me.

Hi, John,
So YOU bought the bike from Lyle Butler's estate in El Paso! Did you get the extra fairing, too? I was interested, but at that time it was out of my price range. Years earlier Lyle and I were both in the (defunct) BMW club in El Paso, the Sunbeemers. He sold me the original exhaust system after San Jose put the 40mm exhaust on the bike.
