I'm sorry, but the paint on that Britten is just plain WRONG ! CR&S colors or stock Britten colors ! Johnny would roll in his carbon fiber grave if he saw that .

Hear you go! Sounds much like any other 4 to me.

I think the technology to build and make the NR work is the amazing part. I saw one in a museum in Brussels, even touched it.

The Britten is a bike I would love to have as part of a collection. True history.

For pure Honda engine sound, You cannot beat (roadbike) a CBX1000-6.
