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.
In 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.

The art piece measures 35″x24″x9″ and our transport department estimates shipping from our warehouse in Santa Monica to the continental US be around $150 via Fedex ground. The seller states “”This is a reproduction carbon fiber fuel tank for the MC28 NSR, parts of the MC28 SP series it was used as a test bed for different interior coatings to test fuels and durability, it was never painted so was perfect to use for the 1995 MC28 SP in HRC colors. Where a Honda used a carbon fiber “look” decal this carbon tank leaves that part exposed and the rest is painted in red as same as the factory bikes that were a tribute to Doohans championship winning NSR500.”
Currently located in Santa Monica, California, this Honda tank art is offered on a bill of sale. Have any NSR250R SP MC28 HRC stories or questions about this listing? Let us know in the “Comments” tab!
