Flat track racing has inevitably been viewed as Harley Davidson's domain, with the company achieving a succession of "number 1" plates over the years. When foreign machinery has threatened to brake the Harley dominance the sports governing body has interceded with rule changes designed to restore the American products advantage. In recent years Honda have posed the greatest threat until rule changes effectively forced their withdrawal form the sport.
The RS883 followed continued the tradition established by the XR750. Derived from the road going Sportster, the engine was housed in a special frame equipped with purpose designed suspension.
This example was restored during 2006 and is described by the vendor as being in "superb tuned condition". The machine is fitted with a stainless steel Supertrapp exhaust system. The orange and black paintwork is described as being in excellent condition and the engine as being a good runner. It is offered with a US title and a C and E 386 certificate indicating that it is VAT and duty paid in the UK.
