Don't drool on your keyboard

We're sure you are familiar with the old expression that hindsight is 20/20. In most cases this adage holds true, particularly, when it comes to all of the beautiful cars and motorcycles we wish we would have kept over the years. It wasn't exactly a case of hindsight, but rather well planned forethought that drove Bengt Gunnarson to hang on to two of Honda's most elusive models by tucking them away safely in his shop's basement.

A bloke who used to lodge with us had an identical NC30 - I loved that bike! He offerred me a ride on it but I was too chicken cos I'd not long passed my test! How I regret that now.........

I never really 'got' the NR750 - it seemed an overpriced, overhyped piece of Honda willy-waving irrelevance to me, but the RC30 really was one of the seminal motorcycles of the 20th century. If I had been able to afford one, I'd have bought one - no question.

Instead I 'made do' with its poor relation, the VFR750 of that era (and still a damn fine motorcycle).

The bike of that era that I simply had to have was the Ducati 888 SP3 - brutal beauty as opposed to the NR750's rather yuppified air (IMHO, of course).

I love the RC30, that and the Ninja 750 from Kawasaki must surely be the best looking sportsbikes ever ridden in Jeans and a T shirt.

I know the NR is a special bike with oodles of class, but i'd rather have a CB500
