Ebay scam?

<< < (5/5)

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
When my 250 Super Dream had stood for 18 months back in the 1960s with a spark plug removed stored in a garden shed  I revived it using Redex down the bores. Took several days of squirting in the oil and pushing the kick start by hand but it did eventually turn over. I also had to remove the clutch as the plates had stuck.

Ran superbly once the smoke had cleared from the Redex soaking.

DomP:
I'd imagine, or hope, the chain guard is off a cb400 because its been  removed and replaced at a later date with one off a 400?!

I'm sure I'll be asking on here for advice when I get it home.

Oddjob:
The 400 four chain guard isn't the same as the 550F one, which is why I thought it was odd. TBH it looks the right shape.
