eBay 'specials' and other junk finds

A place to bang on about subjects close to your heart that affect us all as 400cc riders. general banter is rife, however rudeness and abuse seem to be the norm, If a bit wet round the ears best go play elsewhere. Auto pruning of items 31 days and older

Ok so I emailed him the following:
Hi,

I am just wondering who the rider was that had this bike when raced at the IOM TT? Also do you have any other history about the bike and do you have any paperwork with regard to the trick parts used in the motor?

For example does it have the HRC cams, rods and pistons? What carb setup is it running (i.e HRC short bellmouths and no airbox?) And do you have any paperwork with regard to the work done on the engine?

Thanks
And the answer i got:
Hi, I bought the Bike from Gordon Bell in NI, I beleive it was his son, Gordon Bell jnr, also at the Ulster GP and Dundrod. Many thanks for looking.
Not very promising? :down:
