Derivatives
DVLA also registers other body types under the Honda CX500C nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is motorcycles only.
By year
All 220 surviving Honda CX500C motorcycles, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time.
Motorcycles joining a UK register each year, and how many of that year's arrivals are still registered now (the darker part of each bar). For an import this is the year it arrived, not the year it was built. DVLA's first-registration series starts in 2001, well after the Honda CX500C was being sold new, so these are almost entirely imports rather than the car's original sales.
