Hey Gotz, I saw this and thought of you....

Post by Mark2 »

Hello Gotz, have you seen this peach of an H1F on American eBay ? :-

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... K:MEWAX:IT

Reminded me of your one. This looks almost too good to be true...... Perhaps it's not quite as 'Unrestored Original' as matey suggests? (why does it have 'Mach III' decals on the side panels?).
Wonder if it'll make it to $7,000 ?

I am already watching this one. Original or not... it looks a cracking bike :D

The underneath of the front fender looks more than 2500 miles :roll:

Chrome on the pipe looks very thin

Speedo needle is brighter than the rev counter needle

Right front fork is higher than the left - yet the yellow factory paint marking on the bolt is present - I think that says it all

Does it run ?????

Not much of a description BUT lots of Plagriarism
