I know what you meaning about the can, but I like it lol and you all know what they say about project bike's, they are never finished.
As to selling your b12, strip it sell all the bits you don't need (frame, bodywork etc) get frame and bodywork or like i did buy a nakerd one and build one. My Kat started life as the 750s1 with a nakerd engine forĀ£250 off that site.
