Anybody got a picture of a CB1100R?

Shit Big Dave - now I'm going to have to spend some $ and check out your up-coming article (or at least spend a while reading it at the supermarket..).

Been and done mate - she's a pretty old thread.

Said bike is still in NP and now in the hands of most famous son, it is in the process of being dusted off an got going with a view to selling. The old boy still owns it technically so it won't be going cheap, but then these things are so rare now they will command big $$$ on the international market. I imagine that if no-one locally puts up their hand for it it will end up in Japan or the US.

That isnt the one that Dave Martin used to race? Always made me laugh, they had two in that shop, I always wondered how many laps around Manfield certain parts on the "new" bike had done.

Still remember here in NP the first time I saw one. Allan Delatour was riding out of Honday City (?) taking it for a ride round the coast to get some kms on it prior to racing it, the gold clutch covers etc were gorgeous.

Who was it that kept the fairing on it in the endurance races? Vince Sharpe?(and if I have anyones names wrong I apologise)

The RB was always my favorite one I know of 2 for sale but they are big bucks one in NP and the other in Tga not many around any more but they do run well for their age.

do they cost more or less than say, an RC30?

I think the underachieving/undervalued stuff at present is the RC51: thy have a LOT of fruit and you can pick up a good one for under $15k. and Ive seen an average one for $11k.
