Hi Steff, according to john Wyatt's book my bike was in the first batch of 750's to go to the Netherlands its frame number is 1031114, I found it on ebay in kent in 2005 with no reg number & no doc's, I got it registered on a age related plate H reg 1970, cheers Mick  ;)

burchy75:
Sorry to hijack the thread a litte but Mick you mention John Wyatt's book, just intrigued as to what this is, does it list engine numbers and frame numbers and their origins?

SteveD CB500K0:
John Wyatt's book is a bit of an issue at the moment...

Hi Mick, I'm in Grange. Definitely up for meeting for a ride at say Devils bridge.Would be interested to see what you make of my bike. I haven't ridden these before but despite the low mileage though smooth  it seems a little wheezy and unwilling to rev freely to the red line. Might just be that I am more used to modern engines.  Previous owner thought the carbs may need synching - may be we could have a look at that sometime?
cheers
David

neat street:
well done mick, just putting my engine in today, and going to try the engine on its side, frame over the top method with an engine hoist, yours is looking good! I don't think I could manage your method without help, and touch up paint?
well done again
John
