Anyone looking for a 500 project ?
Seabeowner:
When I started getting bikes from DK six years ago that would have been £1199 with no reserve.
Sesman:
Yep, around £1500 today. At the price and following a full restoration I think the total turn out cost would be about £6500 to £7000.
You pays your money…..
Oddjob:
The trouble with the bike is that it needs so many unobtainable parts, new seat, tanks got a huge crease in it, who knows what’s wrong with the engine, the list goes on.
My stash is slowly but surely becoming smaller, sure I have a NOS seat, stacks of engine parts but sometimes it’s the smaller stuff that stops a build, until some manufacturer decides to retool and make some more parts the ability to restore these bikes will become harder and harder and more and more expensive by the year.

I second that, its been all the little stuff that make other stuff work thats stalled me so much. That and cost a small fortune!
That one's a 50 feet bike isnt it, you getcloser than 50 feet towards it abd it starts tio show its issues after looking not bad with a squint.

And it's Brown!!! :-[
