Post by V4Spook » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:00 pm

Hi All, Newbie Spook here.
Been riding my RC24 for six years now and loving every minute. :grin: Now also purchased a Very original NC24 in Rothmans colours, ans was wondering...does anyone know how many NC24s were produced in the Rothmans livery??

I think only honda will know the correct answer to that.

However - here's a 1988 press release of the rothmans livery nc24, stating that 18,000 will be built.

about 20000 as cammo said were planned, how many sold and still survive is a different story.

I have one :)

Cheers guys. :grin:

18,000? Interesting.....to further confuse the issue..have spotted a listing somewhere of the frame numbers for the Rothmans and other livery editions of the NC24.

There was a difference of over 7,000 for the Rothmans start and end frame numbers quoted. Does this mean only that number of Rothmans bikes were produced?? Will try to hunt down the article... 8-)

Spook.
