To be fair I bought my T500 from the frog and apart from a few bits missing and the general poor condition it turned out to be a good buy. 1960’s Hondas do fetch a premium these days but as pointed out there is little of any use on this particular bike? He’s just cashing in like everyone else.

My green 550 was from there and after fettling did 3000 miles well enough, so my experience with him is ok. It's up to the individual to buy - or not - though.
