Sold my car today, and bought a bike....YIPPEE!!!!!
I am sick of the cages....
The bike I purchased off Trademe is a 1994 GSX750F with 24,000KM...Seems pretty tidy and at $3500 I am not going to complain (especially since I get a jacket, leggings, boots and a helmet thrown into the bargain). I have some cash left over too:2thumbsup
My flatmate and I are going to Timaru tomorrow night to pick it up...He has a Ducati 750 Supersport (and no he is not on KB)...
Roll on Summer
Anyway look out for me on the roads now...Hey I will even make it to the first wed night ride for the summer:whistle:

Well I was looking at bikes in Kapiti...was about to ask ya to come with me to check out a GSX600...but then thought the 750 will suit a bit better
Tickets on plane booked and dont think a bike qualifies as carry on baggage

Has that been around the clock? I vaguely recall seeing a similar bike not so long ago advertising low kms, but carjam showed different.

Well done. I had a '93 GSX750F for a couple of years - bloody good bike, comfortable, reliable, great fun 1 up with no luggage, and still pretty good 2 up with gear for a rally. Enjoy.
