Mick, I love that old pic, every time you post it!  

I'm typing 1948 Dad Photo so when I search for it, it will come up.

It always amazes me why a big outfit like Honda would just make a few of those 500cc singles,they are like gold dust now trying to buy one,the cheapest I ever saw one was $5000 on CL it wasn't there long.


Great pic mick!

Yeah, it's peculiar 'bout the GB500TT ... offered only for the '89/90 model years here in North America (not sure 'bout Canada though?) ... but was offered for a lot longer in the Asian and European markets. They are rare on this side of the pond and as you've pointed out and command a tidy price when they show up for sale. Maybe the time wasn't right here 20 years ago for a Modern-Retro Bike (the Kawi W650 didn't do so well around that time either) ... maybe now they'd have better sales luck with the GB (Kawi is bringing in a W800 for 2011)? I sure would love a GB500TT though and if I had the financial wherewithall, I'd find one and have it!

I present for your pleasure the best cafe racer ever made,and if BSA awoke from the dead and started making them again they would sell like hot cakes,even though I cant ride any more I would still want one to put in my living room.

Not a huge cafe' fan, but I have to agree about that Vincent.  Magnificent!  The details are impeccable!
