I tried to buy it several years ago jointly with a friend but things didn't work out. The bike sold and I carried on with Ducati's and the like, but the RS250 nagged away in the back of my mind (not helped by Frosty having one and not me!)
anyways I sold my last Ducati and the cash was still warm in my pocket when I casually typed 'Honda RS250' into Gumtree expecting nothing more than the last few years fruitless searching...but up she popped again! Needless to say she had financially appreciated but hey-ho everyone was a winner.
Deposit paid and I collected it the following weekend along with bunk loads of spares
So what do I have!? Frame sez 1993, bodywork and airbox looks later. Wheels are Mavic, bit of a bitsa but it is mine!
Anyone have any history on it?
I can't find the early 1993 NX5 seat units anywhere, does anyone have a damaged one I can try and get a mold made?
Plans involve trying to cosmetically restore it back to stock and carry on TD'ing it (sympathetically!)
