Have seen that there are a few floating around here.

Who's got what? Post up some pictures.


Anyone help me find a NSR 250 preferably a MC-28

Check out BARF. There are some grey bikes up for sale. I think there was a Rothman's MC21, NC24 and a NC30 up recently.

What qualifies a bike as a "Grey bike?"

Is it Honda's special project kinda thing or what?

Typically the are bikes only available overseas, such as Japan or Europe. They are not just Honda's, typically any bike that is not available in the states that is shipped here is considered a "grey market" bike. Usually a special importer get them here.

have checked BARF...
Will keep watching.

You don't buy chance have any importer contact information do you?
I have found a couple of companies that I can deal with directly that are overseas, but then I have to deal with customs and everything else that goes along with that. Would prefer to find someone here that has gone through all that already.

Be prepared to pay $6,500 + for a mint, CA titled MC28. MC21 will be cheaper. Check ebay and bulletin boards. It will be cheaper if you find one Stateside.

How about a NC35 (http://suzuki.bayarearidersforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=111455)? You won't have to worry about rebuilding the motor. Just gas and go.

That bike is beautiful, but really looking for a two stroke.
Another time for that bike... Such a shame too, it's going to get rarer and rarer to see these things as clean as that one.
