Oh wow. So £450 is pretty good then? Lol Still good, but if yours is actually a Minor searching sold prices cuts out the dreaming sellers. |

![]() 3988 forum posts 1799 photos | Hi Dave Halford, a few of us have studied this, and I think we've all come to the conclusion that Paul's one is a Major and not a Minor. The fact there seems to be some change in the way the head is clamped to the column over the years, is irrelevant, as it's possible that the casting suppliers may have changed things. Regards Nick. |
