Honda Cx500 Turbo
The Honda Cx500 Turbo has a top speed of 195 km/h, produces 82 hp and weighs 232 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
Honda CX500 Turbo는 1982년 세계 최초의 양산형 터보차저 모터사이클 중 하나로 출시되어 모터사이클 엔지니어링의 획기적인 순간을 기록했습니다.기존 CX500 V-트윈 엔진에 볼트로 연결된 IHI 터보차저와 함께 Honda의 첨단 전자식 연료 분사 시스템 (양산 자전거 사상 초기의 제품 중 하나) 이 탑재되었습니다.CX650 터보로 대체되기 전까지 겨우 2년 (1982-1983) 동안 생산되었지만, 선구적인 기술적 성과이자 수집가의 아이콘으로 칭송받고 있습니다.

구매자가 알아야 할 사항
Complex Turbo System
The CX500 Turbo uses a small IHI turbocharger with a sophisticated fuel injection system — one of the first production motorcycles to do so. This complexity means aging sensors, injectors, and boost hoses are common failure points that can be expensive to source and repair.
Rising Collector Value
As a rare, pioneering piece of motorcycle history (only ~13,000 units built worldwide from 1981–1982), clean examples have steadily climbed in value. Well-maintained bikes in good condition regularly fetch $5,000–$9,000+, making condition and originality critical for buyers.
Watch the Cam Chain
The underlying CX500 V-twin engine is known to develop cam chain tensioner wear over time, which can lead to noisy, rattling engines if neglected. Always listen for a ticking or slapping noise on startup before buying.
연도별 세대 및 사양
500cc V-트윈, 22 PSI 부스트, 디지털 연료 분사, 82 마력을 갖춘 최초의 터보차저 양산 모터사이클.
"혼다가 끝내지 못했던 엄청난 광기."
3,500rpm 미만에서는 슬러그입니다. 피곤한 통근자처럼 느껴지는 232kg의 미래 기술을 들고 있다가 터보 스풀이 울리고 갑자기 매달리게 되는 동안 1982년이 여전히 현대 미들급 선수들을 당황하게 만드는 속도로 지나갑니다.디지털 연료 분사는 진정으로 혁명적이었지만, 초기 유닛이 부스트 솔레노이드 그렘린을 개발하면서 문제가 발생했을 때 아무도 시스템을 이해하지 못하던 시대에 딜러의 손아귀에 넘어갔다는 의미이기도 했습니다.저는 두 시즌 동안 열심히 라이딩했는데 풀 부스트 상태에서 토크 스티어를 장착한 덕분에 제가 항상 선택하지 않았던 방식으로 모든 코너가 흥미로웠습니다.매일 출퇴근하는 것이 아니라 존중받을 만한 엔지니어링 역사의 한 부분이죠.

차체 수정, 서스펜션 업데이트, 연료 분사 매핑 개선, 부스트 딜리버리 개선, 사소한 외관 업데이트.
"그 시대가 무용지물이 된 진정한 엔지니어링의 경이로움."
이번 '83 업데이트에서 수정된 연료 분사 매핑은 실질적인 차이를 만듭니다. 부스트는 오리지널 CX500T 온-오프 스위치 느낌보다 더 부드럽게 전달되지만, 중거리 서지를 고려하지 않으면 앞바퀴에 아이디어가 떠오를 수 있다는 점은 여전히 고려하셔야 합니다.무게가 232kg에 달하는 이 차량은 도시 교통 체증에서 보트처럼 느껴지는데, 샤프트 드라이브는 완전히 사라지지 않는 하드 스로틀 트랜지션에서도 눈에 띄게 흔들리는 모습을 보여줍니다.하지만 탁 트인 A-로드에서 자전거를 열면 1983년의 진정한 충격 가치를 느낄 수 있습니다. 500cc V-트윈에서 100마력을 발휘한다는 것은 여전히 자랑할 만한 파티 트릭입니다.차체 업데이트를 통해 조금 더 통합된 모습을 갖추게 되었지만, 페어링은 여전히 시속 140km/h 이상의 헛간 문처럼 역풍을 견딜 수 있습니다.

중고 구매자 리뷰
"Fascinating collectible that demands patience, money, and mechanical respect."
$4,500-$9,000 usedLet's be straight — you're not buying a CX500 Turbo for performance. Honda's pioneering 1982-83 turbocharged experiment produces 82hp, which was genuinely impressive then but feels modest now. What you're really buying is history. This was the world's first production turbocharged motorcycle, and Honda engineered it with typical obsessive attention, complete with custom fuel injection, intercooling, and a beautifully integrated fairing. It's genuinely exotic hardware dressed in sensible clothes. The problems are real though. Turbo lag is significant — there's a noticeable pause before boost hits, which feels unsettling in corners. Parts availability ranges from difficult to eye-wateringly expensive. Specialist knowledge matters here; a backstreet mechanic touching the fuel injection system is a recipe for disaster. Find one with documented service history and verify the turbo seals aren't weeping oil. These have appreciated sharply as collector pieces. You'll pay collector prices but live with 1980s reliability. Expect to spend as much maintaining it as you did buying it, and keep mileage modest. Ride it occasionally, show it often.
