I agree - if you want to mint it, it will cost the same in parts/refurb whatever the state of the bike (unless it is mint when you buy it)

Wondering what a guy I know very well from York's (sadly RIP a coupe of months back) Commando 850 makes.
The same guy (Bob) owned the 1st UK CB750, when it was a cheap ride-to-work & tatty hack in the 1980's .. he was a Brit bike man but bought the Honda while his Brit bike was being repaired.

£3,400?!

Whao!

I bought mine, in pretty much the same condition for £700 :))

As I first saw it.

Part way there. The outer mudguard was beyond chroming repair, so some isopon and a can of paint did a reasonable job. The chrome wasn't redone - too expensive; rather I had all the chrome parts powder coated. From a distance, looks OK?
