***BEING
SOLD
WITH
TITLE***In
the
late
'80s,
Honda
introduced
several
innovative
motorcycles:
the
Trans-Alp,
the
Hawk,
and
the
GB500.
Due
to
the
weak
dollar,
they
cost
over
4,000
in
1989,
a
lot
of
money
for
a
bike
in
the
500cc
range.
One
was
then
offered
a
BSA
Goldstar
/
Velocette,Thruxton-style
tribute
bike
with
an
electric
starter
and
a
reliable
engine
(and
electrics).
Sadly,
like
many
units,
they
floundered;
they
were
stacked
up
in
Honda's
warehouses.
A
few
years
after
introduction,
it
was
not
uncommon
to
come
across
some
that
were
half-priced.
Honda
finally
took
the
last
ones
and
dumped
them
in
Europe.
As
soon
as
something
disappears,
everyone
wants
them
This
is
a
clever
''resto
mod''
with
its
Suzuki
4LS
brake,
in
lieu
of
the
original
disc.
A
SuperTrapp
exhaust
completes
the
retro
look.
This
bike
has
driven
only
10,326
miles
