    Before I mess about with eBay listings, here's the selection of bits-n-bobs
    that are no use to me but might be of use to UKRMers.

    Disc Pads, all in original packaging:
    Dunlopad SDP404 (sintered S55 material) fits many mid/later 80's Yamaha
    & Norton Commanders 89-, front or rears.
    Dunlopad DP404 (sintered S45 material) fit as above.
    2 pairs Dunlopad DP109 for Honda VFR 750FG (86-87), CBR750 (88), CBR1000F
    (88)
    EBC 129 (AF18) I *think* these may be for Kawasaki GPZ500

    Replacement oil filter bolt with 17mm head for early 80's Hondas - unopened.

    Vesrah oil filter (Suzuki OEM # 16510-45040) for many GS models from 82-91
    Motorcraft EFL500 97mm oil filer for Ford Ka (don't ask!)

    Kawasaki locking fuel cap with 2-keys. "Genuine Part" still in original
    packaging. Fits GPZ...

    Bob Heath visor #161 for Arai Supervent 1.5mm clear abrasion resistant -
    unopened

    Tengtools - used but undamaged
    Stock #1474 7-piece AF ball-end allen key set 1/8"-3/8" in holder
    Stock #4623 13-piece AF combination spanner set 1/4"-1" in hanging
    wallet - these weight 1.7kgs so expensive to post.

    Documents
    Alpha Bearings Ltd illustrated catalogue "British and Continental models"
    from 1982, 28 pages, A5-size.
    Honda 1993 Motorcycle sales brochure and price list.
    Classic Motorcycle wall poster (A2-ish) showing Lodge, KLG Champion and
    NGK spark plugs. Not sure of the year but pictures are "old style", there's
    comments about magneto ignition and prices range from 5/- to 20/- !

    Sales leaflet (A4 colour) for "Remanufactured Honda CB250N Super Dream by
    Remarque Motorcycles part of the BSA Group of Companies".

    Can't remember if the latter actually become reality. Leaflet says
    "provisional information" so maybe it was still-born.


    Anyway, let me know if you're interested in any of the above and we can
    haggle over beer/wine vouchers.

    Happy to post or collection (incl. UKRM u/g) from Basildon area.

  2. It might as well have been.

    It died very early. I think Roger Etcell, ex Honda suit, and the man
    behind The Bike Studio (boutique-style Honda dealer which went tits up
    very early) had something to do with it.

    Thought as much.

    In the small print is says "Available in early 1994, Retail price £1695" -
    someone was definitely dreaming.

  5. When I saw this header, and given Speedgazebo's recent garage
    experience, I fully expected to see "Head and two arms, no longer
    required by original owner."
