Honda NTV650

We found another project so cheap & so close it would almost have been rude not to buy it!
An early 90's Honda NTV650, with what looks like light front end damage. It runs, needs a headlamp, clutch lever, speedo, a couple of indicators & possibly new handlebars...

As if we haven't got enough projects!

We've been half looking for the parts to get this bike back on the road at minimal cost so that it can be used as a spare run-around...
Useful work done so far; cleaned & painted rear carrier, straightened handlebars, replaced headlamp, footrest & damaged indicators. The speedo was proving difficult to find cheap, so we found one from a Revere, this is similar except for the layout of the warning lights & the position of the mounting bolts. It was relatively simple to make an "adapter plate" to mount the Revere clocks on the NTV forks...
