Noticed these on Facebook today and could resist, I haven’t got an RS but will be looking out for a basket case to restore. It always amazes me when good low mileage bikes are chopped up to make bobbers, Cafe racers, rat bikes etc. I could understand it back in the 90’s when sports bikes had fairing damage. It’s a good thing we are all different.   |

No room for it at mine, it is at a friends for now. Not even driven one, but I hear they are braw. Good luck with your search. Gee. |

I'm reliably informed that one engine mounting hole drilled out a bit bigger will let you squeeze an xl500 motor in  . only joking, I'v always had a bit of a hankering for an rs, I like the idea of a nice lightweight single |
