Teds new project a CB500 K1 mostly version 0.5 circa 1972.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
This is what was behind the fork ears the left one was worse rust extends down to the gaiters. - both front gaiters were split.
Looks bad even though some is hidden behind the fork ears / headlamp brackets.
I am guessing that is an expensive fix.

Nurse Julie:
Send the to Philpots for re hard Chroming Ted.
K2-K6:
Echoing the above Ted, they very often look like this after years out and about, that's fairly typical.
Usually recoverable completely through them and think you'll be impressed with how they come back.

Am I right in thinking it's this firm in Luton?
Any idea Julie or K2-K6 as to a ball park figure cost for the pair - thanks Ted?

Yes Ted, that's them. They collect and deliver as well. I would have thought with recent price increases, it'll be over £200 now. Turnaround is 4-6 weeks at the moment.
