2004 Honda NSR50R

RS50-1100965

For your buying pleasure is offered my NSR50 roadracing model motorcycle made by Honda Racing Corporation for Honda. I bought this from a guy who won it in a drawing, he put less than 10 miles on it, then sold it to me 3 years ago. It still has less than 10 hours on it, 3 kart track races and me racing around Tombstone for grins. Condition is slightly used, grandson Cody lost the front at about 40mph at the race track, slightly cracking the fairing as shown, and putting minor scratches on the right side, plus a shallow knee dent in the tank. I warned him about cold tires and dust on track during the first practice, he swears he never touched the brakes. I'm an old RD racer (Willow Springs mid-Eighties), so I know my way around two strokes, and have maintained it well with Honda fluids, running it dry after each use. It came with a K&N air filter element, I assume there was none when new. Radiator has about 30% antifreeze in it, tires are virtually new. Twelve inch wheels with gumball Dunlops 120/80-12 on the rear make it a 1/2 full-sized knee dragger, with adult sized controls allowing it to go 55mph with my 6-1 200 pound self on it. Runs out of revs (11,500 redline) before it's tapped out, you could gear it higher for Bonneville, or what have you. It's a water cooled, reed valve, six speed screamer with factory racing cylinder and exhaust chamber pipe. This model was a street bike in Japan before HRC added the racing parts, and stripped off the street junk. Now it's either for racing, or if your laws are the same as Arizona's, it's legally a "play bike", requiring neither registration nor insurance. Embarrassingly fun, I put the easily removable "Toxic Exhaust" rubbery sticker on it just for fun. Sale includes a box of correct NGK plugs, Owners Competition Manual, Honda injection and transmission oil, spare levers, and whatever else I have lying around that should go with it, including a minimal toolkit and a pair of one inch footpeg raiser brackets some nice guy gave me. Pickup preferred, but I'll deliver it so far as south Phoenix for a dollar a mile one way if you don't have a trailer or van. Paypal or save me a few bucks and mail payment, expected to be sent within 3 days please. Thanks, Bruce Mangels 1345 N. Cortez Circle, Tombstone, AZ 85638. Please Google it or email me for additional information.

I forgot to mention, the races Cody and I drove to in California had a NSR Cup, a class just for these bikes, putting your youth rider, or smaller adult on an even playing field with like motorcycles.
