They keep trying it on

That looks remarkably like the one a guy from Stafford had for sale last week for 5995 on vjmc right down to the back to front badges. He got really upset when those errors were pointed out to him!

Mr_Sheene:
I like these bikes and all the observations. They make me feel better about mine. Learning all the time. It's a nice day, I think I'll get mine out and polish the frame.

Paintwork looks nice though.

To my untrained eye...it's a nice looking usable bike.

The issue is, it's being made out to be far more than it really is...and given a price to match. It's not a pristine and totally original bike.

I don;t mind bikes like that...and when my 750 is done...it won;t be a concours nut and bolt resto, but will rather be like I remember them back in the day. When we used to put spongy foam hand grips on, fit ALFA 4-1 pipes and clipons despite not being able to fit matching rearsets ... When the sensible lads fitted Rickman Polaris fairings, and the fast guys had fork braces and horrid fibreglass front mudguards. Well..actually...we used to bolt some utter shite on in the belief it made us cool...but it's how I remember these bikes in the 80's when they were far from classics, but just 'transport'.

I don't like artificial inflation of prices...

royhall:
What would it cost to put right? The errors are only small things. Naughty calling it a UK bike though if it's a USA import made to look UK.
