    Ebay Africa Twin engine

    These don't crop up too often. Misspelt, so not so easy to find.

    The crankshaft alone is worth £ 950 if you had to buy new. That motor is a bargain.

    Do you nae find the sellers spelling a bit worrying? I know you can't always judge by first appearances,but standards are often fairly constant through a business.

    Just for info. This is a re-listing from last month.

    I've been looking regularly as I want a rear cylinder head. Seems like many parts are listed from one broken bike; it can take a bit of wading through.

    Same seller, seems like a bargain, Some of the parts would interchange with Transalp?

    Probably a listing error, but it does say buy it now.

    You'd think he would have also mentioned the year or model....at least.
