Honda had produced a Honda RC series six-cylinder race bike in the mid-1960s, but the CBX was Honda's first production 6 cylinder road bike with this GP racing engine technology. The CBX was well-received by the press, but was outsold by its sibling introduced in late 1979, the Honda CB900F. With a 1047cc inline six-cylinder engine producing 105 bhp (78 kW), it was the flagship of the Honda range. Max torque was 47.21 ft/lbs (64.0 Nm) 8500 RPM.105 hp 9,000 rpm (claimed) 1978-1980 100–103 hp (75–77 kW) (claimed) 1981-1982 6.00 L/100 km 47.1 mpg ‑imp (39.2 mpg ‑US) The Honda CBX sports motorcycle was manufactured by Honda from 1978 to 1982. It could reach a top speed of 145 mph (233 km/h).
This arrangement produced an acceptable engine width low down and moved critical items out of harm's way in the event of grounding. The width across the crankshaft was relatively narrow as the CBX had a stacked engine accessory arrangement, whereby the alternator and ignition items were positioned behind the cylinder block. Although bulky, it was only two inches wider than a CB750.
The 1982 model CBX-C model differed little from the 1981 model, having only some changes to paint and trim.In the February 1978 issue of Cycle (magazine) editor Cook Neilson wrote this of a review of a pre-production bike, after a four-day review at Orange County Raceway, Willow Springs Raceway, and the Webco dynamometer: "The objective - to build the fastest production motorcycle for sale anywhere in the world - has been met." Comparing the CBX to the CB900F, Setright added,"The CBX feels better and goes better, and the difference is greater than the difference in price, so the costlier bike is actually the better bargain. The CBX was given ventilated dual front brake discs due to the increased weight. " Sport touring model In 1981, Honda repositioned the CBX into the sport touring category with the CBX-B, detuning the engine to 98 hp (73 kW) and adding Pro-Link monoshock rear suspension, air-adjustable 39 mm front forks, a fairing and optional panniers with a stronger frame to support these additions.

The Moto Martin addressed the handling problems by creating a new rolling chassis. In 2011, Australian publication 2 Wheels Magazine named the CBX as one of their favourite 12 superbikes ever.To avoid confusion with Honda CBX series bikes, the CBX is sometimes referred to as the CBX1000.Moto Martin-framed CBX with single seat - a dual seat option was introduced from 1983 In 1980, Frenchman Georges Martin of the French firm Moto Martin designed and built a lighter and stiffer nickel tube frame capable of controlling the CBX motor, and supplied this chassis in kit form.The original bike had handling issues if ridden hard and was heavy at 580 lb (260 kg). Cycle Guide praised the bike as "the Vincent Black Shadow of 1979" upon its introduction. But later CBXs with the addition of saddlebags and a fairing were detuned, and showed the 1981 CBX had lost five hp compared to the 1978 model, from 105 hp down to 100 hp. The 1979 CBX could cover a quarter mile in 11.36 seconds with a terminal speed of 117.95 mph (189.82 km/h).
Seine technische und geschichtliche Entwicklung dargestellt anhand der einschlägigen Fachliteratur. Limpf, Martin: Das Motorrad. (in German) Stuttgart: Motorbuch-Verlag, 2000, ISBN 1-0, p. 50-51 UK journal Motorcycle News listed the Martin CBX as third-fastest in their table of road test statistics in 1980, with a top speed of 142.9 mph (230.0 km/h), bettered by two different models of Dunstall Suzuki. With Brembo brakes and a one piece fiberglass tank/seat/tail section, the overall weight was reduced by 80 lb (36 kg). A single, rear monoshock was mounted horizontally under the seat.
