I have an alert set up so when one comes up on Ebay it lets me know, my BIL wanted another as he stood on his, well mine as it my bike but he's sort of adopted it. So I set up the alert in case one turned up.
I'll PM you the details of the Ebay auction it's on, the key number is very rare, this is the first time I've ever seen one, my daughters in NY right now and I asked her to buy it for me but she's not sure if they'd deliver to a hotel and what happens if it's delayed and she's gone home by the time it arrives etc.

Good day fiddling yesterday, grabbed down all the electro plating I’d done the day previously and checked it all. Apart from a few drying marks, pretty chuffed tbh, it came out well!
Also spent a lot of time trying to get the exhaust pipes cleaned up prior to chrome.
Where the bike was parked on its side stand the skyward facing edges of the pipes were heavily pitted and has taken a lot of time to get somewhere near presentable.
4 hours in and a selection of files more commonly used by vets on on horse teeth, bands of abranet on the drill, blisters, blood sweat and Anglo Saxon and they’re not tooooooo bad
I’m not too bothered about the shallower of the little pits as the chromer will sort those I wanted to get the deep pits and rust build up off them and try to get to a better finish once done. Think they’ll be reet but will probably revisit them before they go to get shiny.
