Life is good when beauties like this roll in

In case anyone is reading this and thinking it sounds like fun but you don't have the right bike... John (Inline4) has a Honda CB350 for sale at Energy Honda in New Plymouth. Pretty as a picture.

Was working in a bike shop about 1993, and heard this unusual clatter of an engine pulled up. Went outside and an older fella was climbing off one of these!
Chap was looking for directions and wandered inside, I just drooled over his bike.
We sold mainly farmbikes, but did happen to have one of the first Fireblades on the floor. Clueless boss was rather taken back when I said I'd rather have this 20 year old bike than all the bikes we had in the shop!

Saw the bike about six months later as we were parked at the top of the Wangamoas in Nelson and could hear this bike coming, best sounding bike I think I've ever heard. Never saw it again, wonder what happened to it.
Think it was a 1973 MV Augusta 750S, but could be wrong ......
