 Posted: 02:30 - 26 Oct 2007  Post subject: I am the only NSR125 owner West of the Rocky Mountains |
 |
|
After making numerous inquiries online I am the only NSR125 owner on the entire West-coast of North America. California chat forums don't know or care about NSR's. And my green, red and white Adricatico 2 (being 901 0f 1,000) is truly one of a kind. Why no one desires this wild cult bike is beyond me. My boss called it a chainsaw... a 100mph Chainsaw!

I own one, it's currently out of action though.
Stuff 'em! Show them up on your 100mph 125! I had 87mph out of mine 2 weeks ago in 5th gear, not bad for a bike which is older then me eh?

Transport Canada allows the importation of foreign 15+ year old cars and bikes ( and their parts as well) without hefty duties. The registration and licencing of bike then falls to the province the bike is being imported to; so as long as it meets current requirements for lighting, reflectors, and a metric speedo, it's in.
While we in N. America have some tough enviro-laws, you all in the UK and Europe have always had tougher emissions requirements since the late 70's.
The NSR's weren't sold in N. America (except the NSR100-Racer) because buyers here reject single cylinder machines outright. Why thumpers are so unpopular here is something I can't understand. Honda just started selling the CBR125 this spring after a 18 year absence of a 125cc streeter in their lineup.
Furthermore, 2-strokes carry a stigma of being suitable for chainsaws and yard trimmers only. With the exception of the Yamaha RD-RZ 350-400 series of bikes, no 2-stroke motorcycle has ever won N. America's favour.

Not bad, never seen one in those colours. Get all that gold on the swingarm, frame, and light bracket stripped and do some polishing. Will make it look ten times better, did it with mine but haven't got any pics.  |
