I bought my CX just because I wanted a bike and it was cheep. And all this time I haven't found what I really wanted to ride. Well, searching the internet at 4am I think I've found it. It was one of those ahhha moments kind of and now I know what I want. Its a ZRX1200. Such a beautiful bike. Large sport bike with a more upright seating position, and now all of the plastic like the other ones that covers up that beautiful engine. All together just a great bike I think. I'll still be keeping the CX around, I hope. And I won't be getting the new one for a while. I just don't think it's smart to only ride for a couple of months and then jump on that machine.
Just thought I'd post this as I'm glad I've finally found what I'm looking for. And thought maybe someone on here might have some input on them? Or talk about what bike you fell in love with, be it these 500's or not. As for me, I'm off to start working and saving!

If you like that, take a look at a Honda Nighthawk CB700S. Amazing machines. Very similar look, but shaft drive instead of chain. They have everything, power, handling, reliability, and they can be found without spending too much money. As much as I love my CX, my Nighthawk might be my favorite.
