and it is fucked, quite badly fucked really. If you dont know what is what you may buy that and try using it (after fitting new brake shoes) thiking that the crack is small so wont matter.

I saw one last year that went for £80. Missed that one!

Then I bought two complete 550s for £600 odd quid with one of thos included.

Last one I saw that looked really nice - full resto but no rim - went for about £450. The classic racers go mad on them. There's even a single side plate on eblob at the mo' for over a hundred and fifty quid. Bleedin' mental.

Lovely bit of kit too. But I bought two bikes for less than that and I will have endless hours of heartache making them work again!!!

That doesn't sound that bad if you consider I saw one a couple of years ago on a Triton
and was told he paid £600 for the drum and plates!
I was given a wheel when a mate converted to disc.
