Title: 244/E251 on ebay

Let the wagering begin, what'll it sell for.................  ??? ??? ???  ;D ;D ;D

I'm wagering $24,589

APPEARS to have original smooth fabric oil lines, early fewer hole seat pan, prob.19l tank and short neck fuel tap.  Guessing the bike's missing very few, if any, of the hard to find early parts.  APPEARS to be a nice unmolested example.  Looks like has HM341's, orig.LR's missing.

I had a hunch there are other fairly low number bikes up here in the Great White North!  ;D What do you suppose the welding is all about on the rear frame horns? I see HM341 Exhaust....hmmmm I'll go with $22,900.00.

I suggest many of the low VIN bikes absolutely went to Canada which was first suggested by Tom Courtney some time back. The welded mounts were for a sissy bar/rack addition. Seller refers to highway bars so this is the giveaway.
The early petcock is in place. There are a few things though I would be asking for clarification on but otherwise looks to be a good low VIN bike. My guess around $18k or a tad less. ;D
Where are you Mark  ;)

The posted pics are too small for a deep recognition, but the bike appears very good.

I think will be sold 18/22K

A BIG KISS from me  :D
All right, I'm going to stick my neck out and say $26,000 but I'm not sure I want to win.   :o
With this early VIN, smooth rubber oil hoses and maybe 11mm stem mirrors and early horizontal vent carbs and like Steve said, probably 19L tank, this one should be very desirable.  I going to place my bid now!  ;)

Riccardo, if you hope to win KP's prize, you'll need to pick one figure, not two  ;D

That's why I bid high, so I wouldn't win.   :D

Riccardo, the guess closest to the sale price wins a kiss from KP.  That's why i said if you want to win the prize, you have to pick one figure...........  ;D  

you picked two figures...........  "18/22K"

At $18,300 with about 1 1/2 hours to go.  I'll bet it jumps another $3000-4000 before its done.  Riccardo might be close on the top end.  ;D

Wow, good guess.  Went up $4200 in the last 5 seconds.  :o  Was that your bid Wayne?

Yep, I went with $22,900.00! Maybe I'll open an appraisal service!

Heck no Mark! I'm having a hard enough time putting the money together to restore the one I have! You can bet however that IF I do find one somewhere here in the backwoods of Canada for the right price, I'll buy it.  ;)

Ok Steve, all is clear.
But I had understood that it was a joke.
I've been uncertain till the end of the auction and I was tried if to strike 27/k, but the 4th sandcast is perhaps too much and my hand is remained firm........and then I had also fear of the KP kiss. :P :P :P :P
I'm much content that the byke  is gone to a member of the club and in particular to Wayne that is a member always present with a great communication.
Thus we will be able to know this early sandcast.
My best wishes WAYNE! ;) ;)

Non permettete a nessuno di ingannare Riccardo mio amico italiano. Non ho vinto la moto! Riesco a malapena permettersi quello che ho.  :(

È che la traduzione dio?
