For sale
« on: September 01, 2022, 08:16:16 AM »
Offered for sale on this forum first.

1973 k2 500 Four.

I’m selling reluctantly to generate cash for my Clipper RTW race fees and to restore the Triton. I’m not going away though as I’ll be keeping the 550.

Asking around £4600.

More details by request.

Oh Philip that is a beauty to behold I am once again tortured with the desire to own - please someone here save me and snap it up so I can go from desire to regret as painlessly as possible.

Seriously that a lot of bike at a very fair price.

Aye. Bit of a toss up between the 550 and 500, but I’ve put so much effort in the 550 I need to keep it for a while.

I actually prefer the 500 in terms of looks and sound. Those are original rechromed exhausts.

Glad the 550 build is progressing, I’ve been following it on the forum.

I think my choice of sh*tter has proven to be the more difficult choice as it's fought me every step of the way. Hindsight's a wondeful thing! ;D ::) I'm getting there and really enjoying it whilst trying not to look like a complete noddy on here ;D.
Spending huge lumps of time away isnt helping but bills are bills and you gotta do what yer gotta do I spose. Off again in a couple of weeks.

I clocked the cans on it, they look fantastic it's a fime motorcycle Phil, well done mate.

I mused at a pal of mine about it, his Mrs spouted, "how many bikes can you ride at once, you've got three as it is!" My reply of "How many pairs of shoes have you got?" to her evoked a 'hi five', an "fair doo's"  and I was allowed another biscuit.  ;D ;D ;D

Giggles with pals, always a winner;D ;D

He might be in touch!

That looks a cracker !! Typical I just paid slightly more for mine - albeit from a dealer .... so a great buy for anyone who is thinking of purchasing
