    Any suggestions to get a scruffy tw200 farm bike from Chch to Auckland?

    hello people.
    i have bought on TM a dead Tw200 - and now need to get it to auckland.
    anyone know of a cheaper option than $400 with the motorcycle moving companies?

    thanks in advance!

    Push it?

    Tie it behind a bus & drag it there?

    Wait for the earth's polar magnetism to invert again and gravity to fail and . . no wait that will be going the wrong way. .

    Anyway there's two to be going on with.
    Don't you look at my accountant.

    When you say dead, do you mean it needs some fuel, some love, and some percussive maintenance (with a hammer). Or do you mean it's decomposing under six feet of smelly dirt?

    Grab some basic tools, "go to chch. Fix it. Ride it". Fix it. Ride it. Curse some. Fix it. Ride it. Meet random strangers. Drink beer, fix it. Sober out, fix it again. Ride it. Look at the view. Fix it. Blag a trailer. Drink more beer.
    It’s diametrically opposed to the sanitised existence of the Lemmings around me in the Dilbert Cartoon hell I live in; it’s life at full volume, perfect colour with high resolution and 10,000 watts of amplification.
