stealthy1 3,964 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 That's not a bad price, would most likey cost more to restore a battered one, wonder where its been since 1976? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andyfr1968 772 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Padgetts in Batley have got loads of old bikes still in crates from back then and earlier, Jasp. Mainly Yamahas and Suzukis but the odd Honda too. I did a stock take for them in the mid 90s and there were old TZs, RDs, various Gammas including a Mk9 same as Sheen rode. A CBX 1000 and even a GL 1000 and one of the original CB 750s, all unused. They had about 6 or so FZR 750s that were a stop gap bike before the OWO1, all still in their crates... It was like working in a museum!! LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stealthy1 3,964 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Also looks unregestered, wonder what plate it would be regestered on if its not, on old plate it would be tax exempt, on new you would need road tax. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
