Selling the GS500 resulted in some vacant garage floorspace and some
cash burning a hole in my pocket.

In a moment of weakness I bid for a pile of crap otherwise known as
eBay item 220766700748 which may or may not have enough good bits
to make a working Superdream 400.

I did not expect to win but now it is mine. I foresee much tinkering
and fettling to occupy my retirement for the next few months.
Or possibly a visit to the tip. Time will tell.

FFS. You can't half pick 'em.

Have you ever actually owned, or even ridden, a decent or even
half-decent motorcycle?

The seller should be paying crn to haul that lot of **** away.

The Capitalization Of Every Word In The Auction Description Is
A Dead Giveaway The Seller Is A Mong And Should Be Avoided At
All Costs.

Birds of a feather, I suppose.

Cheeky ****.

More than I care to remember. See sig for the current stable, the
CBR in particular is a minter.

You are missing the point - fixing up sad old piles of shite is a
hobby which keeps me out of trouble in my retirement. Sometimes I
make a few quid, sometimes not, but the fettling is the objective.

That looks like a Craven top box on the remains of the bloo one.

You should ebay that; I understand they're quite collectable.

Yes, it does.

Indeed. I sold one for over £100. It went to Norway. I recently sold a
three-piece set for well over £300 - that went to Greece.

You utter mong.

Flog the topbox and any bits that look vaguely serviceable - there must
be some - and get rid of the rest.

You've obviously got far too much time on your hands if you're prepared
to try & sort that out.

I'll not hear a word said against Superdreams. Well, not many anyway. I had
one for 3 years. It was pretty reliable. So what if the exhausts and front
mudguard rotted away before my eyes. So what if the rear hub virtually
self-destructed. So what if the steering head bearings wore out in
doublequick time. So what if the camchain tensioner never worked. So what if
the Comstar wheels were lethal in crosswinds. So what if the cambox cover studs
stripped the first time I took them off. So what if the bottom end went
and I ended up having to fit a Dream engine from a scrappie. Er....

Come to think of it... god what a pile of utter crap that bike was :-)
