They must have been doing something right if Honda produced a colour scheme for there bikes in the seed racing colours?

^^^
I think they were up there at the time with Terra as being the top Japanese 'satellite' teams. Their success on the track definitely encouraged Honda to the market the road VFR's and NSR's in the respective Seed and Terra colours.

Re: SEED woz that?
When I rebuilt my NC30 which was originally seed scheme I changed it to type 6. Im not keen on the seed scheme at all.ibby4585 wrote:Yep certainly my favourite scheme of all. I'd love to see a standard road going rc30 in those colours. :-)
Too dark and dull.
For me either the RWB type 1 or the type 6 are my favourites.
But yes.. seed are a tuning company and are still going.
I think most mfgs at the time did a race scheme.. I always liked the ZXR400s itoham scheme.

Re: SEED woz that?
That zxr does look great, never seen it before.
The seed scheme is my favourite, quite rare in my part of the world.
The type 8 looks great too I reckon and was based on the Suzuka 8hr rvf's.

Aha, It was made for one year like the seed scheme so probably not many survived.Cammo wrote:That zxr does look great, never seen it before.

The NC30 at the Honda museam is also Seed Scheme (saw it last sunday actually... :D)
For me its not about being rare though, just not overly keen on it. I think it goes back to when the blade first came out in 1992/1993.. I saw the bright white and multi-color scheme and it made me drool :D
My 30 was actually quite cheap compared to others too so I dont think the scheme holds significant value in general, except maybe the ones who like it

Re: SEED woz that?
I remember seeing a brochure on the web of a SEED VFR400R with all the accessories which I think included leathers, a lid and graphics.
