Main problem for them cutting faster laps then! No problem for you or I! A huge bonus even.

All about targeting the right market eh. Pity my bank balance doesn't put me in that market.

Ditto. The lucky young couple that won the 44 mill fucked me over! Good luck to them mind.

They sound like two CR250s having a drag race. In a way better sounding than the fours. In a way not. Esp the screamers.

Yep. They did sound great.

Always thought the NSR500V would have made the best roadbike as a replica. 100HPand 130kg would have been good enough starting point.

Most def. I'd own one. Maybe two. The second for when I'd worn out the first.

Lol. Nah. I can still get into my skeleton leathers mate (had them made for me when I was racing an RS250 GP bike). Can't breath when in them though...

"treated like gold" as in, didn't attempt to rust proof any parts because it's so inert right?

These mills are not difficult to get a very ride-able 100+ hp from, & weigh under 60 kg complete, www.fastbygast.com/H-2%20parts.htm
- fit one into a ZXR 400/FZR 400/CBR 400 or maybe KTM Duke single chassis or similar for a road bike, or a 250 G.P. chassis as a trackbike..

& bonus, the triple sounds even better than a V-twin..

Here's another bargain. Obviously spent some time getting his bike prepared and set up for the photo-shoot .

The kick-starter position says it all ...

Potential CASH buyer "Hey, can I come have a look over the weekend? Mark "

Seller "Hi, not into showing it. If you want it use the buy now button. I am happy to keep the bike if it does not sell."

Someone doesn't want to sell their bike.

And a follow up......

Potential CASH Buyer "So you want someone to buy a 14 year old bike sight unseen without inspecting it first? What is the point of putting it up for sale if you're not interested in selling it? "

Seller "I brought the bike sight unseen without inspection in Auckland. The bike can be brought by pushing the "buy now " option and coming up with the cash. If it does not sell I am happy to keep riding it. Not sure why you have filled out the question as the bike is for sale and can be purchased"

Potential CASH Buyer "There is a difference between available for sale and it selling. I am a cash buyer and would have probably bought the bike off you this weekend if you had let me come have a look at it. However now i'm going to look at another bike and probably buy that one! Good luck with your sale."

Well would you look at that! A year later and it's still for sale.......

I paid about $3500 for one of these in about 1984 I think it was. Might have been $3200 even.

The paintddoesn't look right and the muffler is shit, but it looks fine value.

Gee, what a plonker. You should get back to him and say you asked for a ride a year ago but he acted like dick so you bought a xyz. How's it working for him?
