Hope I've got this in the right place as a newbie intro. I am new here and look forward to reading and contributing to the SOHC forum.
I'm a transplanted Canadian that's been living in the UK since 2011. I presently have a bike or two, recently just acquired a 1979 DOHC but am after a SOHC. Very interested in restoring a Colin Seeley Replica and need to gen up on them so would really appreciate any advise on what to look for. Thanks for having me and happy to share any information I can with you lot!

Welcome Bill
You need to speak to whiteylfc who is a member here. He runs the UK user club for PRR and Seeley Hondas.
My son lives in Newark. Doesn’t have a bike any more though.

Welcome.
There was one a Silverstone Auctions last week .. didn't reach reserve. If I remember correctly the highest bid was ridiculously low ..think less than £4k
Think it was this one:-

or this one in same auction

Thank you all for your replies and greetings. I was aware of the two recently at auction in London. The better one of the two is of some interest to me, I think its currently being offer at £6000. Would be interested in any members comments or insight as to that bike.
