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 NS250R was Honda’s first entry into the fiercely contested 250cc race replica market in 1984, a water-cooled, 45bhp, ninety-degree vee-twin housed in a GP replica aluminium frame with the uprated NSR MC16 model arriving in 1987. It competed fiercely with the Suzuki RGV and the Yamaha TZRs for honours on the street and in production racing championships.

This NRS250 has been part of an enthusiast private collection for a number of years and is now downsizing due to ill health. It was restored by him around 2016 keeping as much originality as possible including original HM KV3 stamped exhaust. Not ridden much since, the Bridgestone Battlax tyres fitted at the time still look like new, so it will need some recommissioning before use. Supplied with a copy of a parts book, a few old MOTs and a current V5C.
