The speedo being in mph rings alarm bells for me - my Australian model 4 owner CB500K1 came from new with a km/h speedo. I find it sad it wasn't repainted in the original honda green and also that the licence plate bump rubber has been replaced with a rectangular reflector.
I wonder what the reserve is set to - these sell for up to 10 thousand AUD here!
