  • Honda’s stylish take on the classic 1960s British big single-cylinder bike featuring electric start
  • Full 500cc version in green with 1 into 2 stainless silencers, flyscreen and alloy rims
  • Part of a deceased estate, has stood for a while, so will need recommissioning. Supplied with a V5C

The Honda Motor Company was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1937, initially producing piston rings for Toyota. They made their first motorcycle in 1949 and within 10 years had become the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. They have gone on to produce over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products. The GB500TT was a Japanese domestic market model designed to re-create the classic British single, like the BSA Gold Star, but with modern day reliability, disc front brake, 12v lighting and most importantly an electric starter.

This 1989 GB500TT in Green, displays just 26,389 miles on the speedo and is part of a deceased estate. The bike is fitted with a 1 into 2 exhaust system with stainless steel reverse cone silencers Hagon rear shocks and a sports flyscreen. The ideal combination of Japanese reliability and modern-day braking and lighting with the character of a 1950s/60s big British single. Unused for the last couple of years, it will need recommissioning before use and comes supplied with a current V5C.
