| Here's a photo of Dylan Spink's 1983 Silverwing GL650 at the start of the 2019 Iron Butt Rally. 11 days and 10,000+ miles later he completed the rally in 10th place --out of a field of 96 starters and 71 finishers. A pretty stunning accomplishment faced with a field of Beemer, FJR's, Goldwings and a couple of HD's. |

| My whole body hurts just thinking about it. That's hard to do with some old iron.
My neighbor has one bought it new. Other than carb. and brake work still running at 90K

| I had a 1979 cx 500 and a 1983 cx 650, sold them both this year. Am looking for a gl 500, because they are a sweet ride. Easy to maintain and have a nice sound. Paul |

| That's a nice looking bike! Never had one but it does bring back memories to some of the old bikes I've had. |
