c.1983 Montesa Honda MH200. Registration number not registered. Frame number *MH200 00090*. Engine number not found.
Founded in the mid-1940s in Barcelona, Montesa entered road racing in the early 1950s but its major impact on motorcycle sport would be away from the tarmac, the Scorpion and Capra moto-crossers and Cota trials iron being the equal of any of their contemporaries. Despite their many competition successes, by 1981 Montesa was in a sorry state financially and needed a major injection of capital to survive. With the Spanish government's approval, Honda came to Montesa's rescue, gaining a strategic European manufacturing base in the process, and now own the firm outright.
An affordable entry into Twin-Shock trials competitions, this Montesa-Honda is believed to have last been used in 2016. Its mechanical condition is not known and thus the machine is sold strictly as viewed and recommissioning will be required.
There is no paperwork with this Lot.
