My mate is at DK now and says this about the TL250...tank rough ..mudguards rough, rest looks OK.
hope that helps.
He says they have 3 x CB500/550's but all seized and very rough.

Due to my dire financial situation I do have spare cb550 engines to sell, either as kits - eg come and pick though a selection of used bits and fill a box with a selection of good used bits to build a good motor - ideal if you intend fitting new cam and primary chains. Alternatively I can pick out an engine that turns over nicely and set it up on the bench so as it can be seen running. Looking for around £225 for an engine as that is what the good uns owe me, I have had cheaper off ebay but it has been a case of you get what you pay for and some of the diy repairs I have ended up with mean that 3 engines have only rendered up bits to make 1 decent example. This might just widen the options.

Thanks to your mate Ash re Tl250 info. Much appreciated.
Never been to DK but must do sometime as only an hour away.
Thanks again, Tim

No Problem. They had a ratty CB500/4 for a grand, he was going to buy it but at the last minute they dragged it off to break it up instead. Then he spotted a nice CB350/4 with a tag of £1850, he thought that was the price but evidently that was the eBay start price so they asked him for 2.5 k instead. He had gone to pick up an engine but was peed with their 'couldn't care' less attitude. Having said that, my dealings, when I went there have been great and they couldn't help me enough. I think there was a relief guy in there covering holidays absence as Mark and Neil have always been fine.
Go to Derbyshire quite often to a place called Birchover not far from Bakewell.
Cheers ... Ash
