2005 Honda NRX1800 RUNE – SN473

UK Registration: HC53 HJX

We have here a fantastic example of Honda’s Legendary Rune.

If you are looking at this bike you probably know the history of how the existence of the Honda Rune can be traced back to the Zodia concept motorcycle that Honda revealed at the Tokyo Motor Show back in 1995. Like most of the concepts in the automotive world, the manufacturer put everything it could think of into the Zodia concept, and it looked like a motorcycle just not from the future but from a different planet.

The Rune kept the trailing-link front suspension and the single-side swingarm from the Zodia and had the GL1800 engine that was first used in the legendary Goldwing in 2001. Everything from the front suspension, the headlight, the tank, the neatly tucked six-cylinder engine, the exhaust, and the rear fender just blend into each other making it one of the most wholesome motorcycles we have ever set our eyes on.

Rumoured to have cost over $120,000 each to build with only 1500 manufactured worldwide.

This Factory Custom Cruiser blows minds wherever it goes.

A styling statement that borders on art.

Tom Cruise, Jay Leno & George Clooney are just some of its previous advocates.

This bike oozes build quality, everything is chromed billet with not a plastic piece in sight. The headlight itself is probably one of the icons in motorcycle design.

This particular bike has had just 2 Florida owners since new, the last since 2009. It comes fully serviced with 2 x keys and receipts. Always stored in a climate controlled garage under cover. Perfect chrome and factory paintwork.

I personally inspected this bike on my buying trip in November 2003 to ensure it was as described, it more than delivered.

Fitted with super rare Rivco highway pegs, rear wheel spinner, Factory pullback handlebars and Windvest windshield.

Did I mention its the rare full factory chrome pack also!

Last year built.
