Good Luck!
I was given a MC21 for free by a guys who had it siting in a shed. Only had 10000km on it. The PGM III had had it and cost 1800 in engine work tio get back on the road. Still a good deal.

The NS may only be a 400 but is a far better bike. The other two have a bit more of a kick but other than that they are just rolling turds, expensive turds at that.

I agree the NS400 was a nice bike, particularly the styling and the build quality was of the time when Honda really were just showing off (they're beautifully detailed in comparison to the RZ & RG), but I also agree they were totally under done in the 'go' department. Not even a full 400cc and no faster than a RZ350 in a straight line (around corners is a different matter)so clearly the 72hp claim wasn't based in reality.

I guess you can't blame the NS too much, the engine was based on the MVX wasn't it..... :fap:
