CX500 Güllepumpe

I've always had a minor fascination with Honda's CX500, mostly thanks to it's ungainly-looking engine. Witnessing a profusion of CX500 cafe racers turn up on eBay rekindled some interest and I decided to delve into the origin of the bike's Güllepumpe nickname.

This comic explains:

Found via the Australian CX500 & CX650 Register.

Isn't that brilliant? Now whenever I'm sad and depressed, I'll tell myself "shut up Comstar wanker, and rev your engine instead".
