Found this neat little 2 stroke on the Philadelphia Craigslist
Honda NSR 125
Okay, I know its a little rough looking, but these are basically non-existent in the states so it definitely falls into the RSBFS category. I have no idea why anyone would forgo hundreds of dollars, on the re-sale side, and not put it back together. The owner is asking $1,250 for it, but I can’t help to imagine that it would bring $2,000+ if it was remotely put back together. This would make a great winter project and I think the price is very, very fair.
The owner says:
2001 NSR125 Honda 2 stroke Imported from Italy. Rare Bike not available in the USA. Runs great but needs plastics.
Maybe my co-author Phil has a hook up on a set of plastics for this. Phil?
I searched youtube and found a video that represents how it might look. Check it out. I would love to have something like this to cruise around on. Listen to it sing!

Very cool it was made in Italy…
The smaller 125s are quite popular in South East Asian countries especially Thailand. Might be able to find something there. Too bad I don’t speak Thai though!
