    .... A honda.
    I wanted a neoclassic under 600cc that would be practical.
    I would never have looked at one of these...... but shit it was so cheap....

    VT500e for $1200

    Great ride home Mark, the fuel problem was a split hose. I rode it on the fuel tap till I got to Warkworth with petrol soaking in to my jeans then I found a wrecked car behing a workshop and stole some tubing
    The bike does 175kmh (on a closed road) It has vile brakes and would not suit tall lanky riders like yourself but Im looking forward to throwing all that plastic away and cafe racering it.
    Thanks for the coffee and great to meet you at your shop. Ive just stuck a note on Lindas windscreen for her to come and have a catchup
