Never forget that an ex is a has-been and a spurt is a drip under pressure.

A nice collection you have there.  Which 400four is it?
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

1976 400F

(I refuse to say F1 for the usual reasons), so frame-mounted pillion pegs, original and unrestored though it's had the usual new parts over the years.  Exhaust, tank forks, bits and bobs.

My CB750F2 I sold four or five years ago - shouldn't have done that, really.  https://i.imgur.com/3GzbASd.jpg

My CB125S, which eventually wound up in the hands of Motorcycles Unspeakable with a £3,495 price tag  https://i.imgur.com/5cJpTeG.jpg

My old Dresda CB460 - sold that (another mistake).  One of six built by Dave Degens.  https://i.imgur.com/a3Gh6.jpg
