I have an '81 CX500. These bikes came with a mechanical fan that is powered off of the cam shaft. When the engine is running, the fan is turning. A common modification is to convert to an electric fan. Some cut the cam shaft off just at the seal to allow more room for the electric fan. I went one further and cut the cam shaft back behind the seal and machined a plug to go in place of the seal. One less seal to leak.
Here are a few pics.
Here are three plugs. I've sold a few to other CX/GL owners.
Cut the cam off. No turning back now!
Plug in place.
E-fan mounted to the radiator. Custom fabed mounts.
