Anybody had any experience with Honda CB1000C? I think it was only made in 1983?

It has a shaft drive and 10 speed tranny (5 hi/ 5l lo)

I'm tempted by one locally but am scared by its unusual construction.

What, is it an "Enduro" Cruiser? :lol: I don't see why it needs HI/LO... Honda did their on/off bikes like that... Honda 90s have 4 HI/4 LO with a centrifugal clutch.

This is all I know about them: http://100megsfree4.com/honda/h1000/custom.htm
