Well, I told you that CB77s' relative rarity in the UK makes them more expensive than in the US, but is Terry for real? Or am I missing something in my old age?

But, worthy of note, it has the '820A' European seat with the marked additional length.

A few other interesting items on the page.

Well, lets be fair now. He does include the manuals :-)

Just for quick reference for others, 7750 pounds equals about $12090

I don't think he planned on the competition from Neston though. That bike is only going for $5600. That's actually on par for a 100 point restoration even in the states. Assuming the amount he spent is really embarrassing.

☺☺☺ To be fair, also, it could be a misprint, I s'pose.

The Neston ad has been in the classifieds for the past three monthly issues, at least, so there's a market-price pointer! I think I should be an embarrassed one, too; I've spent circa €10k (including purchase and my delivery adventure). Not for sale, though.

Still there in the Dec 2010 edition of CB. Plenty on eBay for less than 1/2 that so I think it will be a while before he's parted from it.
