Has anyone seen this auction?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CB750-69-70-SANDCAST-2965-POLISHED-FRONT-END-Forks-Stem-Top-UNICORN-Tree-TITLE-/230834379914?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35becd1c8a
Another offering from theyankeepicker, seller of the now-famous frame #5337.  
Does it look authentic?  Specifically the lowers.  Is there a difference between early and later ones?  He claims these parts were taken off #2965 to be replaced with GSXR forks.  ??? I'm not sure what those are but if you really had #2965 why would you do that anyway?  Is there something fishy here?

Ditto what steff750 says.  Forks might have been taken off 2xxx, but... theyankeepicker's a pick pocket, representing these forks as sandcast.  Gotta love it.

Hey I think you all are just being too critical of this man.  I mean when he says he has a recessed ignition he even provides the documentation to prove it.  Take a look.

I think I'm gonna bid like theres no tomorow, then take the negative feed back when I don't pay like a man.
I see the vin in our list with a K1 motor fitted but not in the registry as a member.
