Thanks for sharing. You have done a nice job of bringing this bike back to its former glory. You also have an added bonus of owning an under 10,000 numbered 1969 die cast. This bike will have all those early parts such as the socket key, wrinkle tank, double cut front guard etc etc.

Dear all,

I'm able to buy a K0 with the frame serial # CB750 1007323.
Is this a real sandcast frame serial number or not?

Kind regards,

Bruce

Hi Bruce

Anything under 7414 is considered a sandcast but it is possible that your frame is in the sandcast range but the motor is not.  Take a look at this thread.

Hi Prospect,

The frame was indeed number 7323 but the motor was a K1 motor.
Every thing els like gas tank, fenders, the 2 side covers etc was all K1.
And he was asking 11K £ which is just to much — I have learned ...
