One of Valentino Rossi's Old NSR 500 Bikes?

Valentino Rossi in his autobiography “What If I Never Tried It” wrote that he was royally pissed off at Honda HCR, because they never gave him one of his NSR500 motorcycles that he asked for, so we find it impossible to believe that this guy in the video has an original Rossi bike.

Habitually Japanese MotoGP manufacturers put one of their winning motorcycles in their museum and one get’s presented to rider if the rider is lucky enough and the rest of them go under hydraulic presses to be destroyed at the end of each season.

However this stunning”‘NSR500 Rossi Replica” according to Faster and Faster website belongs to a certain Barry Jones of the UK and mounts a Suzuki RG500 engine and the chassis is a reengineered Suzuki RGV250 unit.
