The speedo has travelled a fair distance for a small bike - so if that's the one it left the factory with, then it must have been restored.  Repro tax disc means nothing.  Mot history shows a few 'schoolboy errors'.  Time warp means the same as 'WOW' and barn find - bugger all!  Cables still original grey (ish). I suppose if you had one 'back in the day' and too much money then someone will bite.

I wonder if Frank ever sells any of these.

He offered us (Eamon and me) an NR750 once. £85k.

I had one of those, my first brand new bike, L reg and in a sort of Sapphire Blue.

It's been restored for certain.

My first bike too Ken.

L reg and in blue.

That’s a later version with different exhaust and paint so wouldn’t be interested anyway

With a bit of dust and a few cobwebs it becomes a barn-find too, then you can name your price.☺☺

They are nice looking little bikes. That one is listed as green...candy peacock green? is all I can find on a colour search but it doesn't look very bright for a peacock.

Anyone know where the brochure picture was taken? It's an impressive hall.

I'm sure it's in Sussex somewhere, maybe Arundel 🤔 I'm sure I've seen it in real life.

There's a church as part of a private school campus in Sussex that looks similar, from loose recall.

That's it! I thought Arundel too, so it was definitely somewhere in that area!
