Default Greetings from the Netherlands

What's up y'all,

I recently got a 954RR and immediately noticed this forum, there aren't a lot of 954 riders around here (not on the forums that is) so that's how I ended up here.

I'm Aral, 21 years old and currently studying Law.
Enough about me;

I just got her last week, so don't mind the little blemishes & gold bolts and bits.



Next to her older sister, my other passion/project/honda




I was told the Bike was imported from the States, is there any way I can confirm this? Chassis codes?

Tips/remarks/critique/questions are always welcome

Welcome to the CBR Forum Hayvan. Nice looking bike you have there. And good to see you sticking with Hondas for both your rides

As for provenance/origin of your bike, someone with more knowledge than me should be along soon and able to point you in the right direction regarding codes etc.

Cheers, SB

Welcome to the forum!
The 954 is a sweet ride. Does it have a Vin tag with the emission/safety standards on the left side of the frame? Unless it has been removed, it will say that it meets the federal (or california) requirements if it is from the states.

As far as I know they're OEM, I'll try to look for a number/model tomorrow morning.

Thanks , yeah it's still rideable, cold but rideable.
I should be able to ride untill mid/end of December, that's when our infrastructure goes nuts because of some ice/snow.

Hoe gaat het jonge.

Great looking bike!!

Love the black colour and there's nothing wrong with gold, so long as it's in moderation

Wouldn't mind a 954 in my garage to keep the 1000F company, some say they're the best blade of all!

Stay safe and remember.........rubber side down, shiny side up
