eBay 'specials' and other junk finds

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

From what he says he now wants a RC30 instead so the NC has to go.
If anyone is after a stunning NC I recommend this one to anyone it's a little gem, shame I can't afford it back really.
was just about to link to that - wondered if it was your old bike. Loved that but i have sadly moved on now. Really wish I still had the cash and am considering my options.

I missed out on it when it sold last time as funds werent readily available, sods law that when it sold I had the cash! Which has now been ploughed back into parts...........and a crm250!

have ended up trying to build my own nc30- prob not oki as I have an oem fairing/scheme but nc35 front end and a few nice bits when funds permit etc etc I can tell you now that for the money, you prob couldnt build it - I will end up spending similar to what its up for I reckon. I also have the hassle of putting it together but no time to do it!

Who on earth would bid that much! You can still get them from Honda for less than that. People are strange.
