Hmmmm i could live without original bodywork

Anyone wanna buy a RLR NC35, an NSR 250 and a K7 GSXR???? That might just strech to the £10k needed

so could i, i think it looks great. Ive been adding my bikes up too!!

Yes, looks like a bargain to be had on this one. But I still have the idea that this bike had some damages in the past but do reckon that all the parts alone will be worth that 10K's....Oh, that is a lovely titanium blue coloured system

engine? Frame?

After a 2nd quick look at the pics, just my thoughts are the way the cables, wires and (brake) lines are routed, maybe a small scratch on rhs cover, the way the brake fluid reservoir is mounted on the top joke, no fairings, new zero kms tacho. I dunno about frame/engine...? Still, I may be wrong.

Nice! That thing deserves nothing but the track though - and they can keep the dodgy rearsets when I pick it up!

ALSO THE SPEEDO HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A BRAND NEW 0 MILES GENUINE RC45 UNIT AS THE ORIGINAL WAS DAMAGED AND HAD STOPPED WORKING

THE BIKE HAD ONLY COVERED CIRCA 5,000 MILES FROM NEW

LOL!

Buyer beware and all....

It's no bargain, but the asking price is about right, the seller is in the best position to know the condition and history.

Import with no history. [Japanese model imported by D K?]
No original bodywork.
1 owner [but is this 1 UK owner]
0 miles shown, what is true mileage.
Why was an expensive bike recently modified.
£17k for an original is top price, I was offered one for £12k.

None of the above is important on an NC30, as value and spares costs are low, but not so with an RC45.

Dave.

with you on this dave, doesnt appeal to me even slightly.
however it could be a good bike for the money.
to me it screams bitsa, ex race bike, knock up. nothing wrong with that, just accept thats the way it is and will always be.
it will never be as sought after as a 45 or as valuable.

IMO save your money and buy one that you can sell again if you ever need to
