Nice looking 350

<< < (2/2)

This is nothing, we had a look at a CB350F a while back and it had the front forks on the wrong way round. The little plastic guard behind the disk was facing forwards with the caliper at the back and all on the wrong side. He had even had a brake hose made special to fit. He was horrified when I pointed it out to him. And this guy was a dealer in classic cars and bikes. He said it had come from America in a crate with the front end removed to make it smaller and his mechanics had built it up. It was also advertised as being fully verified by a VMCC specialist. Some specialist.

I think he lied about the 'specialist'. Who knew wheeler dealers told lies?  ::)

Just short of £3700.00 not a bad price  for a bike we never had here, can only mean all of us that have one might recoup our outlays one day.

BigAl (Alan):
Quite a surprise on the final price!
'DK' had just sold an unregistered/some parts missing non-runner CB750 Flake sunrise orange (K4...really a K5) for £4150.00
Can only agree that prices are rising.
