Says the bike is untouched. Looks to me like its been restored at some point in the past. Also, should the header pipes be double skinned as they are well blued? Not a bad bike though, and if it actually goes for 4k not too bad a price either.

How did the carbs come out after the dishwasher. Did that with mine and the alloy was almost black afterwards. Had to have them vapour blasted to get the shine back. Probably should have run it without detergent?

Everything's thicker in America.  Definitely a DK import and he will have paid less than 4k for it. Cheeky bugger.

I know nothing about 500's, but the paint on the tank doesn't look right to me?

LOL!
Damn', that shop is like a candy-store! 
Flange bolts, flange nuts, countersunk Philips... yumm...
Even a pre-sorted CB500 kit offered
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB500-Nut-Bolt-Screw-Stainless-MegaPack-/321414138066
In stainless and no details on the content though, but with Philips and hex bolts/heads pictured... tempting... another € 100,- though...
So what's the deal among hard-corers? A2 or BZP?
Has anybody used these Megapacks, they've been in my watch list for some time. This listing for the CB750 pack is a bit short on detail, is it for the entire bike or just the engine? The CB500 pack appears to be much more sorted, individual bags etc, where the 750 is just one big mixed bag.

A lot of oil leaks on British bikes, I found, was due to porous castings. Even after painting the insides with epoxy paint they still leaked. Guess its part of the character of the bikes.

Should be able to find them from the part number. Which model CB750 have you got?

Thanks Steve and the same to you and all SOHC members. Not been up this early on Christmas day since the kids were 'errr' kids. Unfortunately, global warming in Britain usually means rain.

If it's absolutely necessary, I think I would rather squirt some engine oil in the bores and spin it over with the plugs out to evenly coat the bores valves etc.
From experience with ACF50, it appears to quite good at removing oil from surfaces so 'I to' would be hesitant to spray it into the bores.
Of course I may be completely wrong, may be best to email the manufacturer of ACF50 after Christmas.
Running the engine to full hot once a week would probably be a better bet all round. Make sure it is fully hot though or your exhausts will rot away.
