scooterspal Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) Seems I'm the only one posting these days but if there are others out there who care to take part in the discussion... Can anyone identify this Honda? Which Honda is it? BTW: The video was apparently shot in 2006 Edited August 5, 2010 by scooterspal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrx_boy Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Good question. Obviously one of the many Honda's that never made over here to us, but very curious to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooterspal Posted August 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) I may be way off... bit that fuel tank looks an awful like the one on my 1986 TLR... less the dent on one side . I have sent an email to a contact in Taiwan to see if he can identify it for us. He sells new third party Honda parts and may know something. BTW: I was told that many of the Honda parts....lights and things... actually are made in Thailand. Anyone care to comment? I bought some brand new replacement tail lights and they are as good as or better than the OEM's on my TLR.

wrx_boy Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Good call. Looking at the photos of a TLM250, I think you are right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scooterspal Posted August 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) So is this a currently made model? These bikes look brand new. Edited August 5, 2010 by scooterspal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam95 Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 So is this a currently made model? These bikes look brand new. NOPE not as far as i know because i have got a tlm200 and that is 1987 i think but i think they stoped production of them in the 90's. i can understand why your asking that tho because they are in mint condition, parts are easy to get in japan unlike in england they have to be imported most of the time.

scooterspal Posted August 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) Those bikes are brand new... not 1980's bikes. We need someone to go to Japan and find out what the heck is going on over there. Who will volunteer for this mission?

sam95 Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) very true but there is no info on google and i even lookedd on the jap google and used a translator website and still nothing but they could be out of a museum? who knows you could email a importer and ask if you want to no if they are still in production oo i have just had a thought they could be special anniversary models. p.s i swear i just quoted this have you removed your post scooterspal Edited August 5, 2010 by sam95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motomike Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Those bikes are brand new... not 1980's bikes. They are TLM two stokes, from late 80s The bikes are from a police team, would explain why most of the decals are missing,and the nice condition, not sure if they are a display team, a trials team ,or what , but dont think they used them on traffic duty ,as the lights have been removed.

andy m Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Tlm's . It is an old video, although there are a lot of old models still available there that we haven't seen for a while. Looks like it was around same time as the Pinky Yams, and we had them up to early 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
