just out of interest is the engine for the f1 sport sold in belgum without an engine.i am currentley contemplating/attempting rebuilding a very incompleate Nrs f1 engine and gearbox, f1 engine parts either standard or race are thin on the ground and its proving dificult to trace parts, i have been after a compleate f1 engine for well over a year now, with no luck so far. Also there's the added problem of once you find somthing how do you and the seller value it fair to both parties.Regards Wayne

110607875024 ebay page expand questions an the text below apears Q: I checked out the ad on your site and still have a few questions. 1. Do you have any documented history on the bike, its prior ownership, etc? 2. What is the mechanical condition (i.e., does it run, and if so, how well tuned is it?) 3. Are there any cosmetic issues with the bike that aren't shown in any of the photos? Thanks. Nov-23-10 A: I was told that the bike originally belonged to Joe Seifert in Germany and was shipped the US when Norton Motorsports acquired Seifert's trademark portfolio. I have the title from the previous owner. The bike runs, but it does not idle, so it could use tuning. There is some corrosion around the adjusters for the forks, but nothing major. The bike is in otherwise very good condition. Thank you for your interest the bike is also for sale at http://www.nmsimons.com/F1%20Norton%20F ... e.htmlthis link was also on the ebay pageRemember theres no sutch thing as a stupid qestion Regards Wayne
