Wish I was coming with you Ash. Two things please if you would, can you ask them if they have a complete Triumph T100 or T120 unit engine for sale, and secondly why the hell do they keep pulling bikes out of eBay auctions when there are bids on them. ;D Be careful though, criticism can result in higher prices. Cheers Roy.

Sorry Roy & James Nothing you needed apart from a 500 rear guard but not in the kind of condition you would want James (dents, extra holes).
Quizzed them on sandcast and 500 that were pulled recently. Said  they state somewhere that they reserve the right to end any auction early. The sandcast they sold for £20k  off eBay  (still there see my pics)..not worth it , colour not right, naff seat, bodged front guard etc etc. The nice 500 they sold for £5k from what I can gather again off eBay . I asked them about the 750K0 ending soon. they said that will run till the end as its being sold by their spares dept.. a new thing that the boss has told them to do instead of breaking nice bikes.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB750-K0-1969-Rare-Restoration-Project-Bike-Motorcycle-/311526986523?hash=item488874931b:g:txwAAOSwoydWmOzC

Got a refund on shite items shipped to me recently for £120 and bought nice 500 front wheel & early barrels and pistons, both £50

My mate got the 3k 500K1 ... looks like K0 seat on it and parts slung on to make a complete bike. Cam over screws nadgered up but very clean engine and oil a nice golden colour. Rear wheel not original to bike and very pitted rim.

As good as possible really, but can get them rechromed if necessary.
