Title: Early early Sandcast?
Post by: kenhan on December 22, 2013, 06:37:12 am

Hi,
Found this is on Ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/CB750-K0-1969-/291042429048?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43c37b0878&vxp=mtr (http://www.ebay.com/itm/CB750-K0-1969-/291042429048?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43c37b0878&vxp=mtr)

Take a look at the engine covers on left side. It looks like the pre-production bikes. Compare for example on our own site:

Of course it also could be some aftermarket product that I don´t know about, otherwise it is ultra rare. Looking forward to hear your opinions.

The VIN number indicates that it's a late K0 (diecast).  Not an early sandcast.

I should have looked closer, I think the angle of the picture fooled me. I also missed the E-number on top of the text.

Case closed :-[
