We've done well reducing the bike stock over the past couple of years but as you know, Graham went to look at another bike yesterday and there are more in the pipeline he is interested in 🙄🙄🙄🙄. The plan to move somewhere smaller has now ended up as needing a 2 up 2 down Cottage with 15 garages 😂😂😂😂

SNAP! I'm going through the same thing Julie, trying to downsize to make some room to just walk around the bike on the workbench. So far I've got rid of the restored blue 400/4, the restored Kawasaki Z400J, the wife's YB250, the 1927 Triumph 550SD (in very large lumps) and last Friday my CB250RSA went off to a dealer. Selling the RSA was a wrench as I'd owned it for 21 years and restored it about 6 years ago. And after al the above I still don't have enough room!
Oddjob:
The exhausts are toast, the r/h are rotted through and the left will be dented to hell by the main stand as they clearly forgot to fit the bump stop.

Thanks guys for your input. Don’t know if there’s repro exhausts available of this type? Think this would be a long term resto for me. Would need a complete strip. But heh ho, up for the challenge. I’ll message James see if he has any input!
