stump puller indeed, the stories about the torque on those things is all true. This one came with a Scorpion can so it burbles away nicely too. I took it for a run up the Rimutukas today. Fastestestest I have ever done that road, more to the point, fastestestest I have ever come back down!

Ordinarily I would be glad to help out a poor student, Mr Motomart however might not be so happy, he took the Bavarian in nipple pink as my trade in for the real bike. It appears to have been onsold and is currently on Trademe, you could try negotiating!

yes, thats the one, bit steep isnt it? No they didnt give me that. I got $4k trade which I was happy with. I told them there was an intermittent stalling problem. They werent that bothered. The bike is a low kms LAMS BMW, will command pretty decent prices. I have seen them in Motomart and TSS for a lot more than that ($7k+ in TSS) I am unsure about the story with that listing though, either the seller on TM is a staffer from Motomart or they sold it really quickly and the guy who bought it is pretty pissed off with his son now! :facepalm:

The price he's asking might be reasonable if you were buying from a dealer with the associated guarantee but I'm bloody sure I wouldn't be handing over that amount of cash to some random guy for an unknown bike. Particularly when Red Baron have one with similar mileage and $300 cheaper! Some people are dreamers...

stump puller indeed, the stories about the torque on those things is all true. This one came with a Scorpion can so it burbles away nicely too. I took it for a run up the Rimutukas today. Fastestestest I have ever done that road, more to the point, fastestestest I have ever come back down!

Ordinarily I would be glad to help out a poor student, Mr Motomart however might not be so happy, he took the Bavarian in nipple pink as my trade in for the real bike. It appears to have been onsold and is currently on Trademe, you could try negotiating!

Awesome!

Dammit, oh well no harm in asking though :msn-wink:

well I am glad I got the BMW moved on and much happier it was to a dealer so he could sort anything out. I think my timing was just right. They had two suzukis which had been traded against a Ducati. A 650Vstrom and mine. I think as a non-Suzuki dealer they were keen to move on those bikes and I had a decent BMW to trade which they can always sell/stand over/fix much easier than any Suzuki.

Speaking of TSS I have come away with a 2014 model, with an upgraded can, a Scott Oiler fitted and working well and only 3000kms on the clock, its had its run in and the tyres scrubbed, I still have 18 months of factory warranty. All this for over $3.5k less than the 2012 GSX listed on the TSS website, plus mine is black, way cooler!!!
Maybe I was diddled, who knows, I think its luck of the draw with these things. This time I think the dice went in my favour.

Sneaky... Spotted...

Sent from my W100 using Tapatalk

I was trying to be sneaky in more ways than one, talk about an epic fail. I thought by sneaking up a side street where most people would have no reason to go I might even have to give a clue. They say that spiders move fast when something is caught in their web, that was fast.

Spotted. Timing could be an issue.

Timing issue solved

Jeep Rd foreshore.

I see my mistake now. I knew I had to get those two fences so parked between them and had to park up hill to stop it rolling off the stand, whereas Spider parked at the top of the slope and the fences are in the background. Oh well still the same area and same view just you don't get the close-up of my bike :lol:

You sulk over beer, so time to move onto the whiskey and cheer-up. It's only paint, ... and plastic, and metal :(. But it wont happen again. BTW Nice to see you spotted the reference but it did cause me to do a double take and be extra careful when parking in Jeep Rd.

You've seen the tag most days but may not have noticed it .

True. Really annoying thing is I nearly dropped it a few days ago and was trying to be really careful. Lesson is slope + bike = bad result

I often look at those things, then the price and think wtf? then there is all the talk about how they are got for the likes of UK's drop but bad news if any speed is involved, and then I look at what you get for the price again and the list of what I need/want. Around we go again. :crazy:

I know what you mean, $100 for something you hope you'll never use vs scottoiler, hot grips, new boots, tyres, chain, sprockets, braided lines etc. It's cheap insurance for an expensive whoopsie though.

just priced some on fastbikegear $350+, and yeah UK about the same for 1250FA. A hundy I would do but I am getting into helmet replacement territory and three hundy gets awfully close to a helmet price and you can replace a couple of parts for that.

funnily enough, just been looking around as well, yup, $350 + shipping is a good starting point. For sure it would have saved me money if I drop the bike twice! Hindsight is awesome and flawless aye?

They are only the frame knobs, which are only an assistance and will not give the bike the full protection so a drop is still going to possibly cause damage. If the 350+ included engine protectors or bar ends or something else it would be more attractive. I might try to find an alternative.
