Morning all, I'm looking for a project bike to keep myself and my Dad out of trouble, really loving the old Hondas and had a few growing up, brilliant site and hope to find a new toy soon.

Welcome chum. Seems there are a few on Ebay. Don't pay millions.
'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Set/sit. Bought/brought FFS. Bloody Americans.

For example, I have an iconic Dresda cafe racer that needs a refresh and a new home!

This was 2006. The bike hasn't run since then. It's not a "barn find" but will take some TLC to get back to the condition in the photo.

Hi all thanks for the warm welcome, I'd quite like something like. 500/550/750 early to mid 70's, complete with paperwork, so I can get it to my Dads and share a project with him....we have an empty bike lift that he built, be a shame to to fill it!.
