Lol about his chosen price digits.

£2,000 is cheap

[JamesH]

Yeah I thought that, but when you look carefully at the photos it's cosmetically quite challenged. Still, if the pipes are solid may be worth a punt.

The seat has had more than 9,000 miles of use

Rear indicator mounts are wrong, rear light is wrong, headlight on/off switch is missing and the head and base gaskets both appear to be leaking oil badly.

Not unsolvable problems but what with the seat as well I wouldn't pay that for it.

But, it does have original tank trim Oddjob

Rear light and bracket are US K2, probably mudguard as well, indicator stems are correct but the grabrail is missing, K1 clocks, @orrible cut down seat (seems to be a US thing---perhaps to fit the larger butt!) US didn't have the lightson/off switch

Agreed. I would expect a 9000 mile bike to look in better shape than that.

Looks like a typical yank "Cut Down" job. They seem to do that a lot----don't remember them being pareicular shortarses
