We've seen this one before IIRC ? Engine side covers look to be painted in the pics ?...
Not exactly what you'd expect from a 3.4 mile bike but I suppose the ad is truthful in that it doesn't mention original .........

True but would you pay over 4k for this bike right now Boje?
Be honest.

Right now , honestly ? , no way  . And I'm not sure anyone would who looked into it a little . Now that rebuilt white 250 , that's a different kettle of fish and doesn't make any claims beyond what it really is - but no I'm not giving Carl four big uns for that either ! |

It did look like a quality job in the pics , even if not 100% original it looked a good bike and with a lot of new bits on it too . I've too many bikes or too little space/time ATM but pleased you're happy with it , look forward to seeing it on a run . |

you will have me believeing that shortly good job i dont believe you You should believe me. Because I bet you'd also believe it if someone told you right now that these decals were original....and above all straight.  Shouldn't that have "12000"rpm clocks at that age ?.. |

Anything goes is great....that's why this forum is unique. The serious business is handled as well as having a laugh along the way.....otherwise, is there any point? |

Because I bet you'd also believe it if someone told you right now that these decals were original....and above all straight. Getting back to this so called £4-6k bike.......look at the engine. Who cares if on paper it's done hardly any miles? I mean who cares? If you've never seen a factory looking engine then maybe you should care. This is not a bike of that ilk.....then again, a fool and his money can be easily parted.  |

And so are fake Rolex watches...although some are clearly fake, some are most certainly not.
The masses will always buy the former to save a few bob hoping that no one will ever notice.

. And I'm not sure anyone would who looked into it a little .
