Delkevic arrived today,bit of head scratching fitting it lol. Brackets that came with it labeled as 1 bag=Zephyr 1100/CB1100F 1 bag=XJR1300/FJ1200.Only way I can see to fit it securely is to make something up.Too dark to carry on have another go tomorrow

Nice 400 SD went for around £1400 on Fleabay couple weeks ago,lot of rubbish around ie not original as claimed,pay more for a 400 than the more common 250.They’re starting to creep up a bit in value I sold a mint 8,000 mile 250 couple years ago for £1500.David Silvers in Ipswich?

I remember when they were launched over here,I thought of buying one as a near neighbour had bought one but still into Brit bikes and wouldn’t buy Jap crap🤭🤭Lol. I bought a new Bonne instead.I’ll refer to it as a 750F

I know Honda and other marque exhausts rotted very quickly in the day,nicely repaired there.Delkevic arrives today,thinking I might like to do a mild cafe racer job on the bike and hang on to it.Still fancy a butt ugly K7 lol.

Guy I bought the bike from told me it was a model 750 F0 but I believe it should be referred to as a 750 F. Who is correct? Not that it matters lol.

I would leave carbs in situ take tops and bowls off and squirt carb cleaner in and blow out with air line.I replaced the cross head bolts with 4mm stainless hex socket caps for easier removal/refitting

I bought the bike and it’s not a F1 it’s a F0.1975 USA bike with 24,000 miles and in better Nick than I expected.The exhaust looks to be sound no corrosion,wheel rims look clean but rear spokes not so good,tank has been welded but I had a spare thrown in free,seat has a tear,one side cover cracked,carbs clean but out of sync starts and rides ok but rear brake cylinder needs rebuild.Very happy with it and should get it looking good by summer,may still bung a Delkevic on it as they’re so cheap.
