Where: Longmont, CO
Why: Original w/ optional fairing
Price: $4200
Offered by a collector on the beautiful east slope of the Colorado Rockies, this gorgeous example of a first year V4 sports a rare Hondaline fairing, looking regal in its original red. The fairing houses a volt meter and vary rare altimeter. This example shows 20,135 miles.
Some of these models suffered from the infamous "soft cam" wear issues, but that should have been worked out on this bike by virtue of time and miles. I think the Sabre cuts a handsome and imposing profile, with the fairing completing the picture of a gentleman's express, much like its older sibling, the CBX. The asking price is at the high end for early Sabres, but possibly justified in this case.
