1971 CB500K0 Resto 3/71 VIN 1000896
Woodside:
Well asking that question made me an expert?
So perhaps I should know
JamesH:
Ha ha expert indeed. No-one really knows. I have vin # 2064 which has the same crankcase design. When I listed ash's bike on eBay earlier in the year someone dropped me a line and told me it was rare and that I should double the asking price. Gut feel is that they changed the design after ~2500 were produced...anyone here have a vin in the 2500-3000 range?

Cleaned some parts in paraffin parts washer then fine bead blasted ready for stripping and replating.

Also blasted the good fuel tank ready for Menno's Magic .. just a few spots on it to re-do.
Bead blasted the old chromed steel front wheel (750 K1) that came with my 750K0 ... need opinions on the pitting on inside. i left the spokes and hub on and it's still seems to balance with corrosion blasted off .
Bryan may have a re-chromable rear DID 18" 1.85 40-hole to sell me . If not does anyone have one to sell with minimal inside of rim corrosion? been quoted £10-15 to strip chrome locally.
Woodside:
I have a few sets of wheels ..All from 500's
.I will check them out tomorrow. ..no promises on condition...
