“Mine had OBRUT across the front.”

CX650 Turbo memories

replaced my Suzuki GS1000S with a Honda CX650 Turbo around 1984 or '85. Mine had OBRUT across the front. In the mirror of the vehicle ahead it would read TURBO of course. At the time, we got a lot of European models not available in the U.S. like Suzuki’s RG500 Gamma square four 2-stroke for instance. The Turbo had the hardest seat I’ve ever sat on and broke down every year I had it. Repairs were $600 to $800 three years running so
