Will be interesting to see if this sells.

I own the two UK bikes immediately either side of this - 1015278 and 1015280 (this is the one in between). So I know the VIN/Engine numbers are bang-on.

It will be an expensive bike to restore (£10k minimum I would say to do it properly). But could be a great project for someone.

Andrew-S:
How cool would that be, three consecutively numbered UK K0s in the same ownership.  8)

Lol tempting, but I have way too much on my plate at the moment.

steff750:
 ;) you not looking for anymore UK bikes then james  ;) i've probably got to much on my plate as well i rebuilt a engine last week final drive bearings collapsed  and fitted it into the frame bike up and running now but they are not getting any easier that was a lot of work i think i'm getting to old for all this malarky   ;) they are a lot easier to ride than fix i know

MrDavo:
Seriously tempted, as the wife suggested only yesterday that I restore another barn find to create funds for restoring my old 911 - I decided to keep it and restore it to 100% condition, however there is hidden rot that will be £11k to sort out properly (funded by the sale of my CB750 K1), and then there is the engine top end, gearbox rebuild and suspension to do... It will end up being a (hopefully) £50k car that stands me at £50k, but hey, modern cars depreciate, apparently. And I love driving it, when its not in bits.

Unfortunately the thought of two deep money pits on the go at once is a bit too daunting. She doesn't realise that its one thing to restore them, another to part with them. No way my CL450 will be sold, I enjoy it too much.

Someone tell him that whether it came from Canada or not, it ain't a sandcast, the number is too high.
