Title: New bike - have to change my name...
Post by: SteveD CB500K0 on July 05, 2018, 10:44:11 AM: This lovely CB500K0 arrived yesterday in sunny Wokingham.

Since this photo was taken, it has been fitted with paintwork from Menno so even more lovely.

Many thanks to James, David Silver (?) and Menno

Bike needs a name too - "Goldie" sold to another forum member to fund this.

Post by: Seabeowner on July 05, 2018, 01:49:42 PM: Beautiful, I'm envious. I thought when Goldie went that you were deserting the 500s. Early 500s are the best looking of all the 500/550 range IMHO.
How about a pic from sunny Wokingham?

He did import a 350/4 once and it had done less than 1k miles IIRC but was covered in surface rust ... did you ever get any update on it's resto James?
