FOOK OFF

I need to go edit it me thinks

 

i think it was the special that was made to compete in wsb. they are pretty rare. 10k seems a bit over the top

 

OWO1 rare Iwould say.

is that one i dont know anything about bikes

 

It says they only made 500

Looks like its the bike for me then

but no bloody chance at 10k

 

Wrong room.

 

Small penis


















I know but nobody uses the bike section

 

not mega mega rare, but hard to find unmolested. Loads of them in Ireland apparently, got used on the road racing circuit

 

Only 196 imported into the uk , so i would say thats going to make them rare enough as that was over 20 years ago

and with only 88 registered for the road

 

Theres the grey imports too dont forget!

 

Whats a " grey import " ?

I presume you mean ones that went to other countries but later imported into the uk ?

 

the raceteam that i used to work for had a ow 01,nice bike at the time.
later progressed to the honda rc45 and then in 99 got the ow 02 (R7) beautifull bike.

the team owner still have the R7 and the rc45 but the ow01 ended its days at anderstorp(swedish track)

 

i remember when these were new

 

Theres grey imports and parallel imports, mostly from Japan brand new.
The parallel were brought in by dealers in addition to the factory allocation, and the greys were brought in by independent dealers with no dealer support (or warranty in many cases) for the simple reason that either the main dealers had run out of stock or they were just cheaper!
Thats the reason theres gsxr and vfr400's everywhere
Thats my understanding of it anyway, most of the grey imports were different to UK spec too, and mostly restricted and with kph clocks

 

with a limited amount of 500 and set amounts going to chosen countries tho do you think this would have happened ?

I would say that dealers would have been screaming to get them

plus there cant be a lower spec item again they were a limited run and all the same

I could be wrong but would think most of the 500 should be ok

 

Theres a big write up on them and the RC30 in Classic Motorcycle Mechanics june last year, I've got it somewhere if you want a copy of the article. There a guy who breaks them (sound familiar? ) who seems to know the whereabouts of loads of them!
I mat be wrong, but i'm sure i also read of some of the factory bikes being registered for the road too, that would bump the numbers up a bit. Still not loads though. Might have exaggerated that a bit

*edit* just glanced at he article now, and a fella called Peter Day is the man to speak to if you want a good 'un!

 

everybody was screaming to own one mate, proper rocking horse shit now, was then tbh. Dont really know about the prices but to own one would be cool as fuck.

 

rc30 and nr 750 brand new

video of a rc 30 and a nr 750 seeing daylight for the first time in 20 years

 

showing your age graham!

 

Most big name specials fetch silly money, some are fantastic bikes that I would love to own, but I already have my dream bike, so I'm happy for the moment! I have a Ducati 996, which I think will rise in value in the future..

Bikes I would love:

RC 30
RC 45
Ducati 888
Ducati 748R
Original fireblade round headlights in blue/red/white
next gen 'blade in urban tiger
Kawasaki zxr 750RR
Norton Rotary
Aprillia Rs 250
Suzuki Rgv 250

Plus loads more!

 

unmolested " urban tiger " blades will always hold there value , as there were ultra rare and very desired as the paintscheme was lush ,


paul , owo2 - r7 would be worth a pun , silly money when new , and made in low numbers


zx7 rrs , even low miler gsx efe katana's are becoming ultra sought after now fella


beef

 

Beef

Im not a fan of modern looking bikes ( they all look the same )

I have a GSXR 750 mate , H plate and can only be described as TOTALY MINT condition

I fancy a FZR before the get to expensive and came across the ow01 , hence this post

I seem to be getting into the bikes more than cars these days

 

paul i thought the fact they only made 500 would be enough to make you buy one in every colour regardless of cost lol!

 

Paul pics or stfu, your supposed to be the spelling police but now your partner in crime daves gone your useless Pmsl

My mates Step dad used to have a 1986 cbr 600 that was a stunner, hes now got new jap crap shit like gsxr 1000's and R1's, every bolts anodised or polished,Hes even got a immaculate gilera runner 180 a 225 and a mallosi 172.... the sad cunt.

 

Ive spent up mate

I am trying to get my bike business of the ground but seem to be looking more at bikes to keep

 

Pics please as I love my gixxers

Is it a recent purchase?

 

thats how it goes tho mate ive just started my own car repair garage and the moneys coming in and while i should be keeping it to fund the business i cant help looking at gt30's, bd14's and big tooth gearkits lol!

 

I dont have any piccs of my GSXR mate , Only had it 3 years

 

Only picc

look at the rear of the picc

 

I tried putting my glasses on and I can almost see a bike I think

 

Early gixxer for me next, Srad was a pig to ride, just couldn't get on with it. Hopefully going to pick up a nice J plate 7/11 next month if funds allow
Paul, if you want an OW01, thats guys number is: Peter Day; 07743388364 (sure he wont mind his number being posted as its all over a bike mag!)

 

Thanks for that mate

Ill give him a call monday

Ps, I have a 750 H plate gixxer coming in next week for sale if you fancy a look if the one you want falls through .

 

get yourself and rd 500 or rg500 Paul as some of them are going for daft money now so a good investment for the near future

 

Im looking all the time mate as i want to stock " modern classics " as these are going up and up all the time and seem to sell quick

I have a H plate GSXR 1100 coming in next week , Propper old school muscle bike

 

WOW

NR750 was real cutting edge stuff at the time, 8 valves per cylinder with oval pistons.

Mark

 

2 strokers will be worth a fortune in years to come especially the gp reps, mates dad had a rg500, fook that was a handfull but soooooooooo much fun. mates got a vj21 rgv 250 awaiting resto but even they sell for silly money, i wanted a 250 stroker for a first bike but even the little ones command huge money now.

 

RGV250 with RG500 engine looks like fun.

Paul for a fun bike you should get a honda crf450 supermoto, a kx500 supermoto and a cr500 supermoto, all weapons of bikes. Heres a video of the nr750 piston
