#1: If you go to Frank's website (Motorcycles Unlimited) you will see that he has quite a few classic bikes - all at least twice what anyone would reasonably want to pay...

#2: Will is one of the good guys.

#3: I looked at this for a mate who wanted to buy an F2. I told him to offer

I bought a CB750 from 'classicbikes' a few years ago. Very hard to find but well worth the visit. Nice CB750 K0 but it has been on sale for some time

Sorry to hear that Steve, please pass on my best wishes. I hope his bike went to a good home and stayed in the UK.

Cheers Ash

i did not know that Eamon has been ill, i knew him from years ago when he bought the the bike off Dave, nobody realised then that the bike was actually the earliest k0 to be registered, i was really surprised that he had sold it, when another forum member said that he now owns the bike,i know he did a lot of research into them old CB750s,he was really hooked on them, he had quite a few of them at the time , ;) twice as many as i had

Hmmnn, a couple of years ago I put my K2's full fairing on E-bay and someone called Eamon bought it. He told me on the 'phone he had about  9 hondas in his garage. I wonder if this the same Eamon you guys are on about.

Rhos: Probably. He has nearly 1000 eBay transactions with 100% +ve (and he's never SOLD anything...)

Ash: All I know I have put up on the website. I didn't know the Dave that Steff mentions.
