When Honda made the 50 limited additions hondas back in 98 they made the anniversary storm.

Does anyone out there know the exact spec of this compared to standard?

Also how much one would be valued at?

Think the only diference is cosmetic. Red with white number boards or I could be talking out ma butt as usual.

I heard they had uprated suspension rear and front along with rear sets,,,not sure what else, cant find anything on the web about them! Nice bike that one!

Yes that kind of rings a bell i think the sets was either polished or they was a different set altogether also i think something to do with the forks i will ask Daz and get back to you.

Right here we go this is what was on the anniversary

A 50th anniversary had Remus road legal low level exhausts,Proflex rear shock,Harris rearsets,Ohlins steering damper,Harris carbon hugger,Dream Machine paint and some carbon covers from Fybrelyte (tank filler,top yoke) and a special plate on the top yoke to signify what number it was.

This has come from a guy who owned one.

p.s.Rich he spent hours polishing the wheels himself and we know how hard that is!!!!

Cool! sounds like it wouldnt be bad getting one if one came up! cheers alan appreciate it!

ps if you fancy trying to beat his wheels ill lend you a set so you can start polishing straight away

Hi Rich i can strip them down completely back to alu and a quick buff up.
I have a polisher but wouldnt be able to get into the tight areas thats why when i did mine i never polished to a mirror finish, plus i like the look of the bare alu its kinda like brushed aluminium,have a look at the pics of my wheel see what you think.

How do i see a close up of your pics alan? Cheers for the offer but I should be able to do the wheels myself just gotta decide how i want them!
