...When you've finally decided what you're next bike is gonna be (TL1000), you've worked you're ass, saving all your overtime for a few months, and got your current bike (VFR400) spicko to chuck up on trademe.
You stock up your watchlist with a whole lot of shiny TL's you could get your grubby mitts on, and take a mates one for a test ride just to build your expectations even more...

....And then your VFR doesn't sell.

And now I've gotta relist and wait another couple of weeks.
Seeeriously! The suspense is killing me.

P.S anyone want a mint VFR. $4K ono.

Oddly enough none (or hardly none) of the VFR400 NC30's seem to be selling on TM. And I'm about to add another to the pile for sale.

Same colouring as yours in fact. Not in as good a nic. So your post isn't great news for me either.

Whelp, it's a bit like Christmas: the expectation is (in some ways) the best part. And the wait will make finally getting your TLS all the more sweeter.

Haha, sorry mate I'm not that nice of a fellow. However, I didn't have my full for the first year of owning her if that helps persuade you :shifty:

Are you after a TLR or TLS?
If TLR you could try this guy for a trade and cash?.

If it's a TLR it has to be the black/silver colour scheme

So true, i was just about busting out, waiting at work for the motorbike transporter to show up with my bike, i think everyone in the retail complex came out to oggle at this brand new glemming shiney thing that was being lowered of the hoist.... was feeling a little self consious with the show really.
