The listing for the death trap, I mean "bike", was pulled on Sunday night so I dunno if it's sold (God I hope not) or if he had a big enough warning when I looked at it. He's now listed the engine (item no. 150813423934) on eBay with a starting bid of £80 (seller id:patricksday2014).

I notice that the engine is complete except carbs - funnily enough the carbs on the cafe racer, I use the term loosley, "had just been set up". I wonder where they came from - the original engine perhaps!?!

Looking through his selling history, he also coincidentally sold a load of CB400 parts which he told me, and I quote, he "never had...... dunno what happened to them, all I had was the tank".

Please all steer clear.
