Could be a practice bike. If you can get it for almost nothing grab it anyways no?
Edit: just checked who would of rode the number 9 back then and no one was on a Honda. Mike Brown was the last guy to run the number 9 on a Honda in the 90's. He rode with it in 1996. My opinion just a graphic kit.

Are those die cast clamps or machined? In the pic they look die cast. Overall I'm going to say no that's not a Plano Honda bike.

It's got Subway stickers, so I'm guessing it could've been one of Jacki Short's Plano bikes from back in her WMA days. I remember her running a big font, single digit number, but can't remember for sure if she was #9 one year or not... I think she was?

Had someone else tell me it could be Jacki's as well. There wasn't anything really trick to her bikes though.

Can you PM me the seller's contact info on this bike if it is for sale? I have a 2001 Plano Honda race bike that I have rebuilt which is in the Bike Builds forum and would like that seat as a spare along with the suspension possibly. I would buy the whole bike though.

It's at a Goodwill in Austin, I'm not joking. He said it's the location on 183 and Balcones. They are auctioning the bike and it ends Saturday. Current bid is $50 and I doubt it will go much, if any, higher. I'm not going to mess with it. If it was a SX bike with the AMA sticker and suspension, I would be all over it.

Beautiful. I always thought the Plano bikes were the best looking bikes in the pits back then.
