Blimey Ash, I know Dinkey Toys are more valuable with the original box - not sure about a 400 though.🤔🤔🤔

Wow, is it a Banksy😁.
Does the F/Number on the box refer to the frame number of the bike inside? Imagine if your bike had that frame number, what a piece of history.

Yes the F does relate to frame number, and as you can see no engine number quoted which is why Honda cant confirm what goes with what

The box would be the finishing touch to a restoration but not sure I'd want to spend that kind of cash on a damp piece of cardboard but then again it is for a yellow one🤔😁

I can't help but wonder how a cardboard box could support a heavy  cargo like a motorcycle. :-\
