A place to bang on about subjects close to your heart that affect us all as 400cc riders. general banter is rife, however rudeness and abuse seem to be the norm, If a bit wet round the ears best go play elsewhere. Auto pruning of items 31 days and older

Would be interesting to see what that makes, shame about the keys and steering lock.

That's a rare one, although the frame number suggests a few hundred made.

Seems to have been stored well, and not ever used perhaps.
Very tempting. 15% buyers premium is a bit steep.

Steering lock isnt a problem is it?

Undo the two torx bolts and undo the yoke/stem nut and clamps and lift of, and it would drop out

Isn't this mentioned in general section?

It's already at £3040 high bid. He has a few bikes by the looks of it, including a rg500 and a tdr250.

It's a UK bike, Honda will be able to get some keys for it.

Nice bike but I think it will fetch way too much.

Also they could have put the rear-cowl screws back in for the pictures... :whistle:
