They were used for the action scenes and by the stunt crews, while the CFR450R was used for camera crews. Now that the Honda 'Police' and 'Street Merchant's' bikes have done their business, they are on display at the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu, England as part of an exhibit of 50 years of James Bond's various rides - with wheels and without. Have a read of the release below for more info on the motos and how you can win tickets to the museum exhibit.
