My mate wants a CB500F if anyone has one for sale.

BTW does anyone know where the name 'Drixton' comes from , the CB450 twin  DOHC race guys are always referring to it.

Does this help? (about 1/4 of the way down the page)

OK Ash, as you know I have a scruffy 500/4 with an excellent low mileage engine, on the road.  I think it would be a great starting point for his project at the right price.  I fancy a change of bike so if he could help me towards the price of a ratty old Triumph I would be delighted.

Bought my F from DK about 3 months ago. Looks straight and pretty pleased and my only surprise was the forks.
What have the done to that LHS footrest?
