Very.   He's even willing to ship it to Australia.
Where's that 10mm socket got to?

The guy is local to me and I emailed him as soon as it came on fleabay.  He said he had some parts and asked for a list of what I wanted, I sent it and..... heard nothing since!

Obviously a bargain. What do I know...

My pile of bits must be worth a mint then.

Not sure what is going on with the listing. The ebay.com link above shows no longer available, the same listing has now appeared on eBay.co.uk:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/honda-400-4-motorcycle-/161960563418?hash=item25b59a12da:i:161960563418
So if you missed it the first time you still have a chance!
Pics still upside down though ....

You know that's typical of DK's, its marked up on rear as a CB500f. It's no wonder they keep sending me wrong items, to the point I've virtually stopped using them now.

Wow, recently in a job lot of spares I had a CB500/4 engine that looked like that starter motor.  It had been left under a hedge for many years without cylinder barrel and was locked completely solid.  I scrapped it but evidently I should have put it on ebay and made myself a hundred pounds :-)
