Trying it on with this one

(1/3) > >>

Trigger:
At first it looks like a UK 750K0 but, it is a bitsa.
Wrong top end
wrong carbs
wrong switch gear
wrong front mudguard
wrong rear mudguard
wrong ignition switch
wrong tail light
And the list goes on but, the seller does state that : These early K0’s are a great investment and are rising significantly in price  :o :o :o So be quick if you want a winter project and have at least 5K to throw at it  ;)

So what about this one Trigger, at Stafford show auction this weekend.

Trigger:
UK original bike, that has been round the clock in need of some little weekend work  ???
Has a 750K1 air box.
wrong colour.
Looks like garden hose as oil pipes.
Don't know why it has a bolt in the middle of the caliper.
Wrong exhaust clamps that look as they should be on a old english bike.
Needs a lot of parts that are no longer available and if you find them they will not be cheap, which would be the biggest challenge.

To sum up: Would need a shed load of money spent on it and someone who has a ton of experience with a early UK CB750's so, it needs to be cheap to start with  ;)

Cheers Trigger, I'll look out for something a bit simpler! Will be interesting to see if it reaches the guide price of 4 to 6K. I was thinking of bidding up to 3.7K whilst not really expecting to win.
