Evening all

The missus is clearing some garage space ready for a new arrival in a couple of weeks. V Strom in background most definitely not included 😉.
Can send full size photos or start and run videos if anyone is interested.

Wow..!!. Nice example and low mileage.

I love my little CB500 , it does exactly what I want in a bike and I've owned several.

Your asking price , do you think you will get it..?

Reason I ask is they are getting rare which may sway me into parking mine up and storing it , future classic I think ..

It's a lovely little runner but she's just bought an f750GS to keep the touring miles off her Ducati Scrambler and she doesn't really have room for all 3 🤣.
If it doesn't go for at least close then I can see her keeping it, sentimental value and all that.

I'm my opinion,  if you don't need the money,  store it for the next 10 years or so .. 

I got lucky and paid £400 for mine some years back ...

A friend has the same bike and colour with 24k on the clock, not quite as clean, and needs using as he has had no end of carb issues if left.
A lot of larger bikes out there for about £2k, but you might find someone who had one years ago etc.
Likely a modern classic, albeit not as desirable as an LC350 etc.
Good luck with the sale

Well the little yellow peril has just been packed off to her new home.
Went for the asking price to a lad who needed a first big bike but wanted something with a bit of old school character rather than a modern sewing machine.
Just in time for the missus' new touring bike to arrive too which was handy.

Nice.. 

I'm definitely keeping my CB500 ...
