Honda NR750 and RC30 unpacked after almost 20 years.

[Tiger1]

Bah! Who would want a NR, one ride down to the shops would result in a set of collapsed piston rings and a cloud of smoke and just imagine going down to your local Honda shop to buy parts.

Would I buy one if I had the money and more importantly, the opportunity?
Of course! They don't make bikes like that anymore and they never will.

[jules_1972]

IS an NR available through Raider Motor Sport if you want an opportunity.

[Jase]

how devo would you be if you slipped and fell as you were wheeling the bike from the crate?

all those wasted years and not to mention a shit kload of money down the drain

[Para045]

yes a guy bought the only NR750 to oz a year or so ago. he had it at the Japanese bike show over in Vic where the had the fires, i believe it cost him over a 100K

That would sound about right, I remember reading an article when they came out and they reckoned ~$60 000AUD at the time
Still gives me wood to see them :jerk off:

Looked like a horrid flat spot on the front VFR tyre

[Para045]

You can only imagine how excited he would have been the night before unpacking,

What like THIS [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wm0yWZ0SGo"]YouTube - Honda NR750 dropped[/ame]

nah not a waste at all. some bikes fom some era's need to be collected by someone. our challenge of today is to figure out whats collectable and err collect it.

[eyesup]

I have no problem in knowing what’s collectable, my challenge is to convince my wife that the bike I’m looking at will be a sound long term investment that will benefit not just me but also the peoples of the world. Cash is a bit of a problem though. Tiger1, you're right, they don't make them like that anymore, the sound of an NR750 being reved out along the straight at Lakeside, sensational! It sounded like a group A V8 in front of a puch of 4 cyl Datsuns. I hope the owner of the aussie NR will continue to show it.

damn, para045 beat me to it
