Have you been lusting after one of the two RC30’s posted recently? I know I have. Unfortunately, I don’t have $20K-$30K lying around to score one. This NSR125R may not be the “next best thing” to the RC30 but it sure looks like it is from the same blood-line. Okay, it may not be from the same blood line in terms of racing heritage and collectability. In fact, when I say “blood line” is use that more in the sense of the Schwarzenegger/DeVito relation from the movie Twins, except in the opposite direction from the plot. The RC30 and the NSR125R share very similar looks, but that’s where it ends.
Now that I have gotten the b-rate movie reference out of the way, let’s talk about some states on the NSR125R. You won’t be setting any land speed records as this little smoker is only good for about 100mph in stock trim. However, there is some fun to be had with a 28hp bike that only weighs 280lbs while you are ripping through the gears and giving that little motor
hell all the way to 11,000rpm.
From the seller:
1992 Honda NSR125 Street bike. Clean Idahotitle. This is a two-stroke street bike, made in Italy by Honda. Everything works: lights, blinkers, and all gauges. It only has 4600 original miles! Bike has a fresh top end with less than 50 miles on it! Serviced by a local Honda mechanic. Comes with an owner’s manual and parts manual on a CD. Parts available on ebay, and in the UK. Fairing has some imperfections, but is complete and sound. The frame and wheels are perfect. Great riding bike! This has an aluminum cast frame! Bike has a fresh battery, and starts right up with the electric starter.
This particular bike looks to be in okay condition. The seller states that the fairing isn’t perfect in some areas and from what I can tell there is a spot on the dark blue stripe on both sides may have been touched up and the Honda logo on the left side looks a little faded. To be more
blatant, this IS NOT a pristine bike. But if you like to ride, this one has the potential to bring smiles to the right person. I wouldn’t hesitate to be seen on it. If you agree with me, then take a look at the auction here and place your bid!
