I’m sure someone will be able to fill us in on what a Rob North Honda was (is?) and why a project bike would be worth £15k.

Pictures please

J soper used to race for hadleigh custom for a bit...I suppose you could ask him I'm sure he has a bike shop down south ...."soper motorcycles" at least he did have 5-6 years ago

K2-K6:
Rob North (still making frames I think in California)  made the race frames for BSA & Triumph triples.  John Cooper era etc.

Think the rider was Julian sponsored by Hadleigh custom.

One of the best looking frames ever made,  I feel. Could be interesting if its a "real" frame from that maker.

Seen one with Honda motor installed as road bike in American mag years ago.

Tomb:
Am I reading it wrong? the description says its a replica of a one off bike.

So not actually the Soper bike?
