Cheers Matt, have seen this one but assume mismatch in frame and engine years will be issue with overall end "value"?
Bryanj:
My nephew just reminded me there is a 550 that has been sat in his orchard for at least 10 years, you can have that cheap, but its probably a lazarus 2 project.
Oh and its only just north of gloucester

If it has a 71 frame, it should be a 500 K0 registered on a K or L reg in UK and even as an import it shouldn't look like that,(it looks like a USA back end) , 🤔. It's a bright enough bike but it all depends what you are going to do with it. If you want a bitsa, you're half way there.
Maybe ask the seller for the engine and VIN number so you can confirm exactly what's happened and what model it is meant to be.
Bryanj:
Julie is correct, i think thats mostly US 500K2
Big clocks
Rear light bracket, but early light from K1
Long front ind stems
See through master shouldnt be on there
Its areal mixture of parts but its still a complete bike
Laverdaroo:
How about financial suicide Dave?
