Very nice brochure
It is nice Jensen and there's a chap selling repros of these for very reasonable prices based in New Zealand.
He's got most of our beloved Honda twins brochures too.
Cheers

Hi,

I got one, that's why I liked it so much.
Here a nice one from a K1 (in Dutch) :

oh that is nice now I want that on my wall...
I got a k1 too and in Red but its not meant to be :D

EDIT: Just noticed interestingly they are calling that K1 a big black bomber and thought only the K0 was really called that.

Yes, they did, and were wrong. It's a sales brochure, and was riding on the waves of the success of the K0 in the Netherlands.

Been quite amazed in my searching about how many mis-truths and mistakes were and are still published and these Honda's... thankfully we have this forum to put us on the straight and narrow :D

Hi the first image's garage stamp is actually from Australia not NZ , we're geographically close but actually different countries
Hi thanks for the clarification, it was originally advertised on eBay as being from NZ so went with that.. us Brits are fully aware of the Australia and New Zealand separation but Wollongong threw me! :D
Have updated the title..
