Description

Please note: As the tank will need cleaning and lining, we filmed the below running video with the bike hooked up to an auxiliary fuel tank.

Additional photos are available here for your perusal.

In 1991, Honda split the base and SP models of the NSR250R with the introduction of the SE (Super Edition) model. They had all of the SP goodies (dry clutch, adjustable suspension, special livery) except for the magnesium wheels.

Come 1994, the Japanese firm updated the NSR with an all new model dubbed the MC28. The result was arguably the ultimate 250cc street bike in Japan thanks in no small part to the PGM-IV ignition and Pro-Arm single sided swingarm. Also notable was the memory card used to start the bike.

This example is VIN: MC281201637. It came to Iconic as an import from Japan.

The odometer shows 15,188 kilometers (9,437 miles).
