Yup, at least one in the Bay of Plenty and one in Northland that I'm aware of, both in original condition; also my two presently in Auckland that have been Post Classic racer-ised after crashes.
Blue Wing imported 50 back in the day. In addition, there've been 5 or 6 US models imported in the last few years; one of those is in New Plymouth or Wanganui, I think.
Northland one:

The back of owned by john vowless from new.
The other was owned by a guy named Brett

Nah, the Northland one that I know of was once mine, and I sold it to the guy who owns it now. I bought it and another at the same time from the Central North Island. The rego papers showed that neither started off in Whangavegas. |

Hey cb1100fkiwi,
I used to work with John Vowless at the Onerahi Motordrome although he didn't have any bikes by then. Before I worked there one of the other mechs had a blue 900FA. That's what fired by desire to have one of these bikes though much later (now) down the track!
