Is this a game? Or do you really this E-1007414 engine?
If so, you have to share with the group by posting a photo...
Thanks.

Hi again!
Thanks for your interest. I´ve made some photos of the Engine but I dont know how to post them. Please help me with info and I´ll post them.
The Engine was mounted in a frame I expect to be able to tell the VIN of one of the coming Days. Unfortunately the frame is converted to a Seeley-frame these Days so I´m not able to get it and make the bike as original.
Until tomorrow, Bo

Hallo Bo.
You saund as if you believe the Seeley frame is build with/from  parts of the original Honda frame!?
Can't you be told the frame number of the Seeley frame used?
I'm kind of interested as my Sand Cast too was transferred into a Seeley frame in '78.
It is indeed difficult to understand the wording for a photo in here when no knowledge of used words!

Wow. Amazing. It would sure be interesting to know the number of the frame that it came out of.

WOW. This is a great find! The last sandcast. This site continues to uncover the history of these bikes. I love it!

Interesting.  Wonder how it ended up in Sweeden.  Import or original export.

Hi!
As I've found it looks like most of later sandcasts went to Europe and pretty often in the german/dutch shape. It means with pilot lamp, small winkers, front winkers on 110 mm stems, a huge black taillightbracket with a round taillight and finally HM CB 750 stamped exhaustpipes with a quiter noiselevel.
I 've found this engine in south germany and bought it including both wheels, wrinkle tank, gauges and some other electrical parts.
Unfortunately it looks like the seller cant find the framenumber the engine came from.
Best regards to you all, Bo.

Bo, thanks for the clarification,
I do not think we will ever know the exact origin of the country where It was imported from Japan for the first time .... Maybe Germany ??
Nevertheless, we know that was not destroyed and is still there...
This is already a very good news for us all, I think...

Awesome find Bo! Fabulous to know it still exists. Incredible!  :o  :o  :o

Thought I had found it once in the US but turned out to be CB750E-1007419.

Hi!
Was the E7419 a diecast? Is it possible to buy it? Would be a useful frame for E7414.

Bo,
Sorry, I only have the engine, essentially new. No idea where the frame is.
It was removed from a brand new bike to be used in a dirt car racer but was never used.
I am looking for a suitable frame myself.
