looking for a new toy
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
I don't know how much the owner of the 250K4 was asking for the bike, what John offered or what the theoritcal value of the bike was/is, feeling insulted by proxy is not something I have ever experienced.
I do know Ash & John are both enthusiasts of old Hondas being regular contributors, it would be a shame for either party to take their bat & ball home over this.

Let me put this out,
I am looking for a mid size twin,
Something that needs tidying up,
Ideally below £2k
I was told of a restored 250,so I enquired, was given a contact number and name,
Spoke with the gentleman concerned, I told him his bike was to good, and I guessed the value at approx £3.5k,
I explained my budget was under that, but was ringing because I had been given his number,
I felt we parted on friendly terms,

There are a lot of CB250N Superdreams out there John that would easily fit that bill if you find them attractive.https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/267094339862

I was preferring a 350,bigger bang for the size, I also like the early drum brake
But that said, nothing is off the table

The 400NA Superdreams do not command big money either.
Not sure if its a fault on my 400NA or the nature of the engine, they have a certain thrum sound. probably the balancer shaft effect. Quite a few about, I know a 16k miler 400 was bought for around £1800 from a dealer near Chester last month.
Some owners have put spoked wheels or the nicer looking reverse Comstars on them.
