    Hi guys,
    Duggs put me onto this forum - lots of cool **** happening here. I've owned a couple of RS250's and am probably going to get another one some day. Current bike is a NC24 VFR400 Rothmans. Here are some pics of my previous bikes.
    This was my first RS250, a 1999 model and my first ever road bike. Scared the **** out of me.
    [​IMG]
    My next bike was a Honda Monkey. Turned into a very expensive bike.

    My second RS250 was actually more of a project and never finished it. An RS250 chassis with an Aprilia SXV550 engine.
    [​IMG]
    And my most recent RS250

    NC24 VFR400

    Yep, wish I had held out for an NC30, a really nice one came up just after I bought this one.
    Please let me know if you ever want to sell your RS250

    Yeah it was his idea to turn the lights on for the photo :aggressive:

    I hate Hayabusa's, you take that back right now! Only thing they're good for is the enignes in small cars.

    Welcome to the forum
    Great selection of bikes also some great photo's. Please tell me you didn't get booked for speeding on the Z50, then again could be a good yarn.:lolsign:
