Honda 800 pic on MCN.com



*want want want*

How big is that swingarm? It appears to be approx 10-12" deep!

And the relative lack of seat unit looks good.

Shame they're going to spoil the lines and put paint on 'em next year....
Look good, don't they.

Pics here too:
The exit point of the Honda exhaust is close to the front belly pan
hot toes?
You'll appreciate that clever design in the winter although open-toed
sandals in the summer might not impress as much.
Good job Vale's not Honda-mounted these days. That'd really mess with
his stressy leg dangle in the left-handers.


(might have to scroll around a bit)

The Yamaha looks less radical than the Honda.
Surely the Honda is all "sanitised".
heh. I think that when it comes to GP bikes, that's not necessarily
the case.
They seem it this year. The thing I wanna know is - why was Hayden
riding a "development" bike all year, when it's got no future?


You know that there's a few Hondas I'd very gladly have in my garage,
and they include the RC30 and RC45.
I'm increasingly chuffed with my RC36.
what about your SC14?
I want another RC17.
It's very nice, especially for hauling pillions and luggage, but I tend to
pick up the VFR's keys every morning. Problem is, the pillions are spoilt
now, so the Wing must remain part of the fleet.
It functions again, then?
NC19, MC28.....
RC30, NC45, 400 Four (!), CBX, 1500 Wing, CB250RS, CB1100R, CX500 (wild
card, there), CB125T (original 17bhp version). Oh, and an XR250 and a
VFR750FS.
CR500, NSR250 and a Civic.
RC30. It's the only bike that I have a picture of on display in my room.
It's still the most beautiful bike ever made. One day I may cheat and
buy an early model NC30 with the same paint job.
Is it just me, or do the forks look very skinny on the Yam?


It's you, I think.
I think you might be right. I've looked harder & there might be a
fairly wide section at the back of the leg that's in shadow & which I
didn't see first time round.


I mean, I think we can be fairly sure that Yamaha *haven't* fished out
a set of RD200 forks from the museum, so any apparent skinniness must
lie in the photo angle or your frankly addled eyes.
You're probably right, although the MV has got the thickest forks of
any production bike, so most forks look skinny to me by comparison
anyway.
"Mine's so huge everyone else's look little".
Heh, didn't see that one coming. My innuendo-sniffer must need
recalibrating.
I can't find any motorbikes on the Medical Consultants Network website
heh - I went there first, too.
