    I am pretty sure it would have been bought new at whoever was the NRMA depot at Gunnedah in the 70’s. That is where my uncle worked.

    The CX 500 Turbo is a collectors item but that is just a shitter. ;) They were a water cooled V twin. With a cylinder out each side at the same angle as a Moto Guzzi.

    Keep up the good work Bollocks, I love your installments in this thread. Although it is sad to see the likes of the CR rusting away in a shed. I have often wondered where all the old bikes go to die and it appears that The New England area is the place!!

    Someone would probably kill to get hold of that old Grey Elsinore.

    Those Elsinores fully restored sell for big $$$$ that one would make a good parts bike, a mate of mine has one that he races, I dont spose the bloke wanted to sell the one he had there by any chance??

    Cheers Mick.
