Honda NSR150 SP

£3195

I would very much like a Honda NSR250R. Domestic management won’t sanction eight or ten grand on a decent one, but it’d be far easier to get this NSR150 SP approved. Built in Thailand but using engines imported from Japan, it’s a proper NSR with beam frame, single-sided Pro-arm and a zingy two-stroke motor with a powervalve. Though not as fast as a 250, with 30bhp and extra cubes it’s gruntier than, say, a derestricted Aprilia RS125 and has a riding position less likely to torture my wrists. I’d look quite like Mr Doohan, too.
