Thanks to Roger F for bringing this to our attention. He says...
'30 seconds, featuring the then reigning grand national champion Mike Kidd (he won the #1 plate on a Harley and was hired by Honda). He's riding a bike powered by an engine that started life as a CX500, turned sideways, converted to a 750 and chain final drive!....not a bad day's work in the shop)... Roger'

Never knew they made a road version
Nick, the Ascot VT500FT V-twin engine is not related, in anyway, to the NS750, CX500 or RS750, except it's a four-stroke made by Honda. It's all marketing horseshit. G
been thinking of picking up one of these and seeing if I could put in the 600 as the basic design is still being used in the Shadow. Or just enjoy tooling about on a good looking old dream from my youth. Sadly, every time was has come available I seem to be broke.
Same thing happens when 500 and 750 Interceptors from the same era come available. I am too often broke.
I blame the other 4 bikes I have.
'78 CB400t
'80 XL250s
'91 ST1100 Black
'91 ST110 Silver and Black
what i never understand is this, theres a super rad bike that totally rules, so they make it available for the public, but they make it look totally shit. why not just copy the rad one exactly?
Did Troy Mclure do the voice over?
