Off to DK tomorrow to pick up my mates 500/4 he just bought from them.
Anyone need a bike checking out?
Cheers ... Ash

Wish I was coming with you Ash. Two things please if you would, can you ask them if they have a complete Triumph T100 or T120 unit engine for sale, and secondly why the hell do they keep pulling bikes out of eBay auctions when there are bids on them. ;D Be careful though, criticism can result in higher prices. Cheers Roy.
-
OK Roy ... I was going to ask about auction pulling policy anyway... I am always the diplomat so no worries ;D
-
Ash don't take your chequebook or card or you will come home with another bike!
-
Ash, need a decent 500 k0 rear guard if they have one..? Oh and a decent LH K0 fork ear..
-
Sorry Roy & James Nothing you needed apart from a 500 rear guard but not in the kind of condition you would want James (dents, extra holes).
Quizzed them on sandcast and 500 that were pulled recently. Said they state somewhere that they reserve the right to end any auction early. The sandcast they sold for £20k off eBay (still there see my pics)..not worth it , colour not right, naff seat, bodged front guard etc etc. The nice 500 they sold for £5k from what I can gather again off eBay . I asked them about the 750K0 ending soon. they said that will run till the end as its being sold by their spares dept.. a new thing that the boss has told them to do instead of breaking nice bikes.

Got a refund on shite items shipped to me recently for £120 and bought nice 500 front wheel & early barrels and pistons, both £50
My mate got the 3k 500K1 ... looks like K0 seat on it and parts slung on to make a complete bike. Cam over screws nadgered up but very clean engine and oil a nice golden colour. Rear wheel not original to bike and very pitted rim.

James I have one spare k0 fork ear....not sure what side...I now have a pair i picked up so it's surplus to requirements. ...and also not sure on condition ill dig it out tomorrow if I remember..
-
That would be great - fingers crossed it's LHS :-)
-
Aaarrrggghhh
I had to look
Afraid it's RHS I think
Glad I did go out I have just seen my vans got a puncture ....so that's a job for the morning ...great
-
No worries, will probably still take it off your hands if you want to sell it woodside?
-
I may have a k1 etc pair about you could helicoil to suit and use reflector. ...we're you after a perfect or just use able one
-
As good as possible really, but can get them rechromed if necessary.

I still have these 500K0 NOS ones that I would like to swap James ;)
-
Yeah I know Graham - but I don't have any K1 ears yet so it's a non starter until I do I guess?
-
If you have a job for it its yours ..just give a donation to this forum..and I will send it out
But if you want it just as a spare ...i will keep it here
As a spare until my k0 is done..
I hope that doesn't sound rude..
-
That's fair enough woodside no problem. Hold on to it for now and I'll try and source a pair that will work. If I get desperate I'll give you a shout. James

Ok James no problem
