I can't see any listed at the moment - worth keeping an eye on Steve at 400fourbits.co.uk
Honda CB400NA Superdream (current money puddle)
Honda CB500 K1 (second money pit)

Honda CB400 four super sport (first money pit)

This is a neat 500 restoration in the USA.

Feeling adventurous???   A piece of mild steel of the correct thickness, Hacksaw, drill, and an aerosol can of black paint. If it works, the satisfied grin is very hard to dislodge!!

I was thinking about making my own Trickymicky. I'll have a look into it.
