I had a owner contact me as, he had bought a sandcast as a investment. When he took it out of storage and decided to commission it for sale, he found that it was gushing out oil from the main crank seal or the stud. He sold it at auction and we buy any bikes bought it and had the work done, then sold it on ;)

Could be some truth in that as it was restored a long time ago if I am correct. Seat on it was crumbling but beautiful original profile though ...you never seem to see them like that...probably original with the hard insert piece in the 'duck-tail'. A lot have hidden history .. like the press bike has welded cases and loads of parts from another donor bike.

He is looking for a UK 750K6 and was interested in a assessment. As the seller recons it is better than sliced bread.
Wrong Paint job
wrong tank
CB550 F2/K3 clocks fitted
Wrong shocks
wrong rear footpegs
and so on.
The seller has also refused any type of test ride or inspection :o
