The bike in the advert has a K6 engine in it by the looks of it, maybe even later.

A sandcast is a 1969 production bike and has VIN number up to production number 7414. Anything after that was a K0 die-cast.
The bike in question, as the seller says, is a 1978 F1 model with loads of bits off of an earlier K models. It is a UK registered bike but many of the parts on it are from a USA model, ie, the back end.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Makes one wonder if the V5 shows it has been a cat C or similar or previous owner damaged the frame so used an earlier frame. Could even be a ringer.
He does call it a Bitsa? US rear fender still cheap entry price into the 750 species is it not?
