But for true originality value James H's K0 he was thinking about selling would be a far better buy!

On the subject of originality, they're only truly original if they're not used. This one was used and sold on. A few years ago in the affluent world of old Bentleys, I seem to remember a court case, where the buyer of a prestigious racing Bentley wanted his money back, as he said it wasn't the original car. To cut a long story backwards, I seem to remember the judge saying the car had been used and parts naturally wore and broke, only to be replaced with new parts from Bentley. His sage decision was that it was the original car. Basically, what did the purchaser expect, original air in the tyres? In the case of this bike, it depends how much the purchaser wants it and then, does he/she leave it as it is, as part of the bikes history or do they start looking for parts to return it to its original state; or is that restoring? Complex ain't it?  I'm glad I can't afford it!

My wife thought I was playing a computer game with the sound effects. Now she’s hooked too!
