Question Is there still a market ....

... for a Classic Ninja Style SS Backbox?

I've got one in the corner of the garage ...... I know the number of Classics is falling (certainly those with the original backbox!) ... has the market disappeared or should I have plenty of buyers?

That's even better!!

Only Honda could make a backbox which was so good in dimensional tolerance that they could pull off a trick like that!!

a trick it is, deceiving, reality is its a normal backbox with horrible traingle cutouts , looks pretty nasty , trying to give a sporty image which it just cant do like a superior sport car such as an impreza sti

Do you reckon if I said Local Pick Only it would limit the price too much?
