A specialist dealer in Japan is selling what are probably the rarest and most evocative bikes in existence. They only come as a pair and the price may be an eye watering £496,388.80 ($800,000 US) at today’s exchange rates but there’s no denying the desirability of these historic motorcycles.

They are Freddie Spencer’s title winning 1983 NS500-triple Honda and the legendary NSR250 from the now infamous 1985 season, the year Spencer clinched both the 250 and 500 World Championships – a feat never likely to be replicated as the rules were changed to prevent riders from undertaking this Herculean physical and mental task again.

No biggie. Right now over at Eaby.uk is both a RC45 and a NR, if you got 250,000 GBP burning a hole in your pocket.
