A UK registered Honda NS400RF from new
In mostly original condition for its age
All 'up and running' as it should be
A current V5C on file
The limited-production Honda NS400R was produced by Honda between 1985 and 1987. Adapted from Honda's NS500 Grand Prix motorcycle ridden by "Fast" Freddie Spencer, the NS400R was the company's largest-displacement street-legal two-stroke road bike. ‘Fast’ Freddie Spencer gave Honda their first 500cc class win in 15 years on an NS500 in 1982 and then rode a lighter and more powerful NS500 to a 1983 500cc World Championship victory. Yamaha and Suzuki had already released street-legal replicas of their racing bikes, so Honda responded with the NS400R in 1985.
On offer is a UK-registered from new Honda NS400RF. This machine was previously owned by the current owner for 12 years before selling it to his friend. The Honda was offered back to him, so he purchased it back as he regretted selling it so much. A motorcycle mechanic, since it has been back in his ownership, he has keenly maintained it ever since. He has left it mostly original where possible, so it is showing some ageing. A correct numbers machine, we have been advised it is 'running very well' and 'ready for its new owner'. The Honda is offered with a current V5C.
