About the Honda CBX
A CBX family directory leading to the correct model and repair guide.
The CBX name appears on distinct Honda model families. If you mean the six-cylinder motorcycle, start with CBX1050; use the separate CBX250, CBX550F or CBX750 collection for those models. Keep the complete designation, including F where applicable, when selecting the year and product.
The CBX1050 route splits early and later repair parts
The featured CBX1050 carburetor kits separate 1979–1980 from 1981–1982. Its fork seals also differ: 35 × 48 × 10.5/11 mm for the early application and 39 × 52 × 11 mm for the later one. These examples help route a six-cylinder repair; the individual 1983 CBX550F clutch plate belongs to a different model.
Choose your model: CBX1050 six-cylinder parts, CBX250 parts, CBX550F parts or CBX750 parts.
