The "Custom" variant, introduced in 1979, had a smaller, narrower tank and buckhorn handlebars.
The headlight and gauges were similar to the CX500 Deluxe.
Turn signals were now mounted along the fork tubes, below the level of the headlight.
1982 was the last model year for the CX500.
In 1983 it was bumped up to 673 cc and became the CX650.
The CX650's styling was different, and the engine was painted black instead of plain aluminium.
