The original uploader of these pics suggests this NR750 has 0 miles on the clock. Amazingly, the retailer is asking the equivelent of $46k(US)! (Ignore the price tag shown)
Better get there quick if you've the cash - Possibly located somewhere in Wakayama, South of Osaka, Japan.
Still donning some of its protective film from factory

Raided the Desmo piggy bank and picked up this beauty yesterday 
Not quite Panigale Tricolore quick, but not far off and the fastest road car I've ever had - goes like a stabbed rat!!!
Very nice. That's the only car (in that colour too) that could tempt me away from Aston. Not quite Panigale Tricolore quick, but not far off and the fastest road car I've ever had - goes like a stabbed rat!!!

Shiny new chain and sprockets on the filthy ER-6f. Old chain was completely shagged.
Just had the misery of a chain snapping to deal with - wish I'd invested in a new one sooner! I kept it lubed and checked for tightness but aside from a slight tight spot it seemed okay. Oh the other hand, it was probably 13 years old, but seemed fine. This wasn't the case though, and as I rode to work one night last week it snapped, leaving me pushing the bloody bike uphill from B&Q at Scotswood to the city centre where I could secure it. Pushing a motorbike around a flat car park feels like nothing, pushing it for three miles, mostly uphill, is bloody awful.To make matters worse, I decided to pick my car up from the garage to get home after the shift ended. Bleary eyed, I paid for that (it's just had two new wheel bearings at the back) and drove it home. En route, the ABS/TRAC/ACS warning lights came on as the car pitched itself into slide at 70mph on dry tarmac. As I arrived home after a slow, cautious drive I looked at the N/S back wheel to see it smoking and stinking of burnt brake. So the car was recovered that afternoon by the garage after I'd had three hours sleep. The bike is booked in at Honda on Scotswood Road for Monday (thankfully, a short push from where it's stored!). They're confident they can fix it. Hopefully the car will be fixed by Monday too and I can put this dreadful weekend behind me!
