I tired to play guess the price before I clicked the link, I was £8k too low.

Nice thing, but I'd have to do something about that seat unit and rear lights.

Price seems a bit high, engine looks like a stock SFC engine rather than a race engine

Being ignorant of these matters - what makes it an Egli?

The frame, a Swiss chap made them for various bikes. Vincents, CBX's too, and probably more. The frame has a design style IIRC, a big single spine.

It used to be someone bought an old bike because it cost less than a new bike,but these days it's just a choice of which you want,because the prices are pretty similar.

I love the look of old Spondon and Egli frames,quality gear. I don't much like that bike though,the wonky eyed Honda clocks do my head in.

I now feel bad - because I have actually been to his gaff. When I was living in Zürich I went there - but I remember him as doing a load of Harley stuff - I had gone on a buell to pick something up.
I should have really know that
