Went to pick up a SDR200 fresh in from japan yesterday but it was in a far worse condition than was expected, with more bits missing than was seen in the pictures. It was way behind a economic repair.

But it was not a wasted journey.

I was always planning on getting a gag bike after i got the SDR. While i was there i spotted a very clean NSR50 in Repsol colours. I believe these are the last road going NSR's made? It at there looking at me and i had to have it. I probably payed slightly to much for it but it is clean an original.

I hope to get some pictures today if the rain stops.

Here is a picture of my bike. Sorry about the quality. My new phone camera is trash. See the nice crack all the way around the front tyre.

Thanks.
I am well happy with it. Just waiting for the import duty certificate so I can get it road registered.
Really looking forwards to having a slow blast on it. Lol.

That makes me mighty jelous, but I know if I got one I would have to throw in an nsr 125 engine lol but it would take me a good 2 years to do it lol

It might get a big bore and that's it. I normally like to do engines swaps but as it is original and clean I have to restrain myself from doing a big engine conversion.

Sweet.

Some nice NSR50 on the japan yahoo auction site.
Love a rothmans one or a clean NSR80 an paint.

The Mrs isnt to keen on my ideal of a Hoilday to Japan to gather some
YSR's and Nsr's and container them back.
I can dream though.

Well maybe we should organise a lads holiday!
Not to ibiza or anywhere like that but to japan to buy some toys and ship them back! I reckon it would be a laugh too
So whos up for a ds holiday? Razz

Anyone who buys a Gag in Japan and rides it all the way back to the UK gets a DS sticker. Not Worthy

Holiday in Japan bike shopping? Do you think the bank would allow me to remortgage the house to pay for all the bikes I would want to bring back? Laughing

I know exactly what you mean! I dont think I coukd afford to bring back all I wanted but I think a group of two stroke addicts all on a holiday to japan and all chipping in for a container for bikes and bits would be an expensive but fun and very nearly justifiable trip lol
