They're very pretty, but in all fairness, I thought the idea of a bike was to ride it.
I can't see those getting ridden at that price, so what's the point?

The listing's disappeared now - item "no longer available".

This is the guy I bought my L from by the way - though that was bought for real world money. It wasn't the cheapest, but it has a brand new Baz engine and carbs in it, which is the main reason I bought it in the first place.

He had 2 others at the time - that J, and a nice black B.

I've watched all 3 bikes on Ebay since last year and he literally changes pricing by the week.

He's a nice enough guy, but is just playing at dealing classics. Seems he has a burning ambition to get one up on dear Frank.
