The '''Honda CX500T''' is a [[motorcycle]] produced by [[Honda]] in 1982.
The race for technological supremacy was at its height at the beginning of the Eighties multi-cylinder, multi-valve engines were all the rage. and the latest novelty was the [[turbocharger]]. Costly, and often imperfectly engineered. The turbo proved a flash in the pan. but that didn't prevent the best of the turbo bikes from acting as a superb technological showcase for their makers.
