Title: Decent looking XBR at Oxford Classic Honda
Post by: CrazyFrog on May 30, 2020, 08:10:30 AM
Just a heads up incase anyone is looking for an XBR. Seems an OK price to me, but I'm no expert!

Yes, even tho the XBR certainly looks like it needs some TLC, it looks pretty standard from what I can see and seems to be reasonably priced t’boot. Shame I’m not in the market for one..... but then again 🤪😉😉
Thanks for sharing Pete 👍.   Michael

Certainly very original, even the proper Honda exhausts and FVQ shocks! Nice project for someone.

Looking through their stock list ..I found this little gem. I'm a bit sentimental over these as I passed my bike test on one....12/12/1970....omg nearly 50 years ago 😱

Ah but it would somehow be wrong of me to buy that one Ian and turn it into a cafe racer😉😉

I saw that too-used to run one of these as a second bike in the mid seventies when my main bike was a Kawasaki Z750 twin!They do seem to be quite rare.
