CB500/550 / Re: Don't see these very often!

I'm inclined to agree. I used to live in Liss back in 2011-13, thankfully never saw that death trap on the road. ;D

I was born in Liss Manor!

Other Bikes / Re: Shame on you Bonhams !

Its not just Bonhams, its virtually every Auction house. A short while ago, one was selling an "original" TR7 V8. Only 20/30 were factory made, the rest all after market mods. They were told it wasnt an original car by quite a few people and it was ignored. The new owner then tried to sell it on as such but didnt get a buyer!

Agree.I would have bought it but for the paint. Why the heck didnt the restorer simply paint it in the correct colour for that year. Shirley (sic) that was just as cheap??  Confused.com  TY for the replies. I shall wait and see what comes up and treat myself to a cb750 for crimbo.

it does look nice tho....perhaps thats why it has been done like that. I currently have a very early US import 550 is too small for me and not enough POWERRRRRR. Was just a thought. perhaps I should look around over winter!  Cheers.....sniffle sniffle...

Yes thats it.  Oh dear.....to my untrained eye, it looks nice, but then again.....perhaps thats why it was done like this, or this "elderley gentleman" was lazy.??

Theres a tasty 750 just been put on fleabay and Car n classic....and I am thinking....both nice and nicer price. BUT the colour isnt for 74....(but I do love blue, especially on the 250) and the seat isnt original....  Should this really matter???   Hopefully I can some response as I think it'll go quick.


I currently have a 73/74 550 that it will replace as its small!
