Thanks Julie,
 I'm ok .
Every accident you walk away from is a good one.
I was more concerned that I still had to get my mother's birthday present before the shops shut that evening.
Direct line rang me One hour after the accident admitting liability for and on behalf of the other driver .  Good customer service .

Answering the location of Bletchley park it's within spitting distance of the station reputedly there was an underground tunnel
Between the station and park because there was so many documents being moved to London each day.
The tunnel exited at a platform
It was later filled in by railways staff after the war.

Hi Rich,
               The mainstands are a weakspot the chassis is identical to the cb175k3-k6 including the main stand.
Can you believe the money breakers want for them ?
Regards
Andrew

The mainstands were scrap
And the far East replica is 1 inch too short especially as the tyres
Are TT100's
Station X is a mile away

Andrew

Hi Rich,
               I have restored one and
Manuals for the K3 are rare.
James Morgan was no help to me.
I have a cb175/125 pdf file and a parts book for the K3 in pdf.

I will email them when home tonight if you want them
Regards
Andrew

These little twin's are one of Honda's best kept secrets.
This K3 is one of 27 UK registered bikes in 1971/72 replaced by the cb175k4 or k5
I know of about 10 other UK  K3's
I have sourced engine parts mostly from France.
The exhausts were the hardest parts to find . I eventually found second hand down pipes in france.with CB175 silencers from DS.
The paintwork is Menno Dek's
In flake sunrise orange.
Not the standard candy gold.
Checkout the clocks.

CB500/550 / Re: Is my bike a 500 or 550?
« on: December 30, 2017, 11:34:11 AM »
I have a Cb500k3 as well
They are the runt in the 500 /550 family and are exactly
Like the 550 k3  but a 500
These bikes are sweet but they run lean on Pd carbs and
don't like after market 4 into 1's without changing the jetting.
