Done to death Gaz but of course appreciated.  If you look closer you'll see all is not what it seems. The bike has been restored with not a huge amount of attention to originality. |

I thought I must have been seen before, someone on Facebook tagged me in it I had a nice surprise today via there as well. The current owner of A776FLH (my old black CB400NB) contacted me to say the bike was in good fettle. He saw it on your forum post from a few days back. |

I've often found ex owners of bikes and cars on Facebook , love to talk to them about the history of the bike |

eBay sellers do this all the time. I once saw one of my CB200's for sale on EBay when the actual bike was tucked up in my garage? Turned out rhe guy WAS selling a CB200, apologised profusely- he was just too lazy to take his own photos.....

I think I'm going to hazard that this is not the same machine albeit a similar looking restored example. |

Discussing this bike on so many threads and platforms at the moment- keep getting asked if I have seen it- friends, neighbours- even the postman! I cannot figure out the look the restorer was going for with those engine covers- like a red flag to SD people? Main cases also showing a bit of dirt and corrosion from those 3 miles.....  |
