1988 Extremely clean Honda RC30, NE England. SOLD

DEPOSIT NOW TAKEN - APOLOGIES TO THOSE OTHER INTERESTED PARTIES

Here we have for sale my extremely nice full-powered (Belgian) 1988 VFR750R. I've owned this bike for sixteen years, and it's only being sold now because recent health issues lead me to believe I won't be riding it again. It's been in storage now for three years ~ although was pulled out into the open for the making of this short video only two weeks ago. It hasn't been ridden since, so it's still as clean. And yes, it still starts on the button.

I won't bore viewers with details, other than to say it's standard but for the fact that it wears an HRC upper radiator in polished aluminium (.. cooled by a manually-operated fan with a switch on the clock assembly), braided brake lines and a carbon MIG exhaust can. It will be sold with these items fitted. An OEM single-sided stand is also included in the price. NB: the larger radiator slightly restricts the bike's turning-circle, but it DOES allow you to ride in almost any traffic situation without the engine overheating. Most RC30's will overheat in slow-moving traffic ~ this one doesn't.

I do have an OEM exhaust for it too, with pipes, clamps & silencer in 'as new' condition. This was only ever fitted for MOT purposes. I'll include this in the sale too if it's required (.. at reasonable extra cost). You can see this fitted in the photograph showing the bike on its single-sided stand.

This bike has been as reliable as a Swiss watch in the sixteen years I've owned it. It has NEVER needed any mechanical repairs; excluding service items like spark-plugs & filters (.. which have just been renewed, by the way). Only its clutch friction/ pressure plates & steering-head bearings have ever needed replacing (.. in my ownership). Moreover, it has won 'Best in Class' and 'Best in Show' categories at local (North East England) Classic Vehicle shows over the years. It's as clean underneath the fairing as it is 'fully dressed'.

Please see the links to my video uploads, where you will be able to view the bike & hear it from onboard cameras.

VIDEO CLOSE-UP and ON-BOARD: can be viewed by searching for stealthystevie (.. all one word) on the Tube. Here, you can also view close-up videos of other bikes I've owned alongside this RC30, and from them you'll get an idea of just how well I care for my bikes.

I rarely answer the telephone unless I'm expecting a call, so for more details and / or high-res. photos ~ please MESSAGE ME FIRST!

Asking price as it stands: £27, 500. (UK buyer only please).
Asking price with additional (perfect) OEM exhaust: negotiable.

NOTE: Despite its clean condition, this bike has been ridden not wrapped in cotton-wool. So.. no rivet counters please..! If this is you, you'll probably find something closer to what you're looking for advertised elsewhere (.. at £35, 000 - £50, 000). Believe me, the first serious viewer of this bike will want it!
