    1992 Honda RS 250

    Looking to track down a bike I used to race in the early 90s, does anyone know of a 1992 RS 250? It was the only one in NZ as far as I know, it was in Hamilton last I heard?

    Ant I know the owner. When I heard what it was I was pretty sure it was yours, and as it transpires, it was.

    Will PM you

    John Beck used to ride a 92 RS250 back when I first started riding. He did it up in Repsol Doohan colouring. I can't remember who he sold his one to, he can be found at Top Cars in Invercargill.

    I dragged one back from Australia with me in 93 I think it was. Chris Osborne maybe ended up with it?

    Your post count is high enough now so you should be able to.

    If you can't track it down Ant...these geezers have one. The want NZ $6600.00 for it, which I think is pretty fair.

    They also have this spanking TZ250 (which I'd love for myself)...

    Thanks Pete,
    That TZ looks great!
    Im in Osaka just now but heading home soon so wont get a chance to check those bikes out this trip.
    Was the RS $6600 all up landed in NZ?

    Yeah it does. We got Bruce Anstey one when I first started work here, but I never got the chance to lock horns with him on my RS.

    Had to wait till we were 883 mounted!

    The $6600.00 was before all shipping etc. Probably coast around $1500.00 to get back here. But I'm sure you'll know of good contacts that could make it cheaper mate!

    I'd love another GP bike just to look at and maybe to scare myself with for the odd track day squirt!
