Surely we know when our bikes are fit for the road
In the 40yrs I have owned & restored bike. I have never had a failure.
If you clean & polish a bike regularly. Any potential problems are easily spotted.
As for Insurance companies insisting on MOT tests.
I can't see how they can. The law says "not required" so the Insurance companies have no legal mandate. To demand otherwise.

Once apon a time.
I got a tip off regarding the parts left over from a Seeley built F1.
The guy sent Seeley a new F1 still in the crate.
They sent him a bike + the surplus parts. Which I bought for
£100.
Unfortunately the frame had to be Q regularly but...

That is impossible to answer.
You'll have to go. Then decide for yourself.

I seem to remember the Bomber was the first Japanese bike to be regarded a classic.

Why would that be?
Racing? Or do they tend to suffer a common fault?

Is there much call for K0 Hubs, Front & Rear. Complete with brake plates & spindles?

If the milage is genuine. Makes me wonder why the tank badges have been changed.
Also the rear tyre looks like a Dunlop SM. Surely a Sloper would not have scrubbed of its original tyre in 4k miles. Though it could have been changed out of preference.
But the tank badges???

I must get on with it. As the 6v system is far too weak.
I wish I could do the same with my Xl250 Motorsport.
That has 3 generator coils 1 for Ignition. 1 for Battery.
1 solely for the headlight, which is amazingly good.
But the Battery/indicators are amazingly bad!

I'm thinging of putting a 5 speed gear cluster from a K6 into my sloper. But I'm not sure yet.
Also I'm led to believe the sloper generator puts out enough power to run 12v. So I just need to change everything else.
Has anyone here done either of these mods?
I like to keep things original. But I think these mods would greatly improve the little sloper.

Hello Ash.
I have 2 k6's & a sloper.
The reason I ask about the K0 is.
I have a perfect NOS rear mudguard for a K0.
Even though I have K6's the k4/5 model's are my favourite.

Are there any forum members who own or know anyone who owns a Cb175k0?
I may have seen a K0 at some point. But I cant remember doing.

Hello.
The one thing that has not been mentioned here is.
Have you removed the inner cable from the outer & checked its condition?
I have known them to snap. But still work to some degree. As the two frayed ends will mesh together and drive. But will also slip making the needle appear to bounce.
