Hmmmm,

"Totally restored 100%, every nut and bolt all the way down. Seller has never seen one this nice. A collectors dream. Sold with a Bill of Sale."

Now that's talking it up.



I can see rusty kicker and spokes, and non-original front # plate :o ::).

Yeah Freaky, thats Bob Neilsons Hindall and B44 Metisse. Bob's a good bloke but he doesn't keep bikes long. He only got the blue Metisse in July. I'm surprised he's selling the Hindall though. He's a bigtime Hindall nut and I've been trying to get that bike off him for years. Unfotunately now that he's decided to sell it, I can't affords it. Ain't that always the way? Thae Hindall is a sweet bike and almost identical to my Ducati version.

BTW Freaky, I picked up a genuine Trackmaster 750 Yamaha frame/swingarm/tank and seat this morning for $200. The nickels pretty tarnished but it's the real deal and it's straight and unmolested. I'll now use it on the Benelli project instead of the replica. That'll now go back in the shed for some future project. I tried to post a photo but they're in some odd format and they won't download. I'll email the photos to you.....
