Toaster why!!!???!!!
First you leave the glorious, if a bit windy, eden that is Wellington (for muggy Auckland no less) and now you are selling your pride and joy?
Next you'll be wearing a dress.
I reckon if Clint (eyegasm) finds out you're selling it he'll sell his soul to buy it off you.
It is one seriously nice bike for anyone thinking about buying it.
Seriously though - come back to Welly and keep the bike - it's the sensible choice.

What they all said - this is a stunning bike, well loved and cared for by Cam, and well admired by many Welly riders who had the pleasure of riding with Cam and the Busa:yes:
If we had known when we let him and the family return to Auckland that the sale of this gorgeous machine would enventuate, we would not have let them go:gob:

Yep, it is a crap selling market. You gave your bike away at that price.
I have had one offer of $18k and that was as is without a lot of the extra stuff, spares, mufflers etc.

Like mine, it's going to be a sad parting, but I understand your reasons, sympathise with you and hope you get your price for it. I'm not prepared to give mine away either and personally if it doesn't sell, well, that's just too bad... :innocent:

Thanks mate. Yes in true Toaster style the bike is pretty damn awesome.... no muppet is walking away with that for a bargain. I put a lot into my bikes and always managed to get good prices for them once flicked on. Had a good offer so far and will see how things go.
Catch up soon Ed....

Love to mate! By the way, did you derestrict yours? I posted a thread, "Don't they know they're restricted?" a video of top speed tests and it seemed a bit pointless, esp as the BMW 1000RR won it by about 2mph...

I see no point in restricting them from circa 320km/h to 300km/h. A tad pointless methinks! Same goes for de-restricting..... why bother? No place to try it out without a gross and stupid disregard for the safety of myself or others anyway!
Been to 250km/h on a track but ran out of the black stuff. It is a cruise missle plain and simple.... the best bike I have ever ridden by far (and I have ridden dozens over the years).

Yeah, it is rather pointless in the end. I'm against restricting on principle, I mean why make a vehicle capable of 320+ and then knobble it? If we were in Germany and on the unrestricted Autobahn, we'd be frustrated at not being able to reach top speed where it is safe to do so.
Over here, it's your right hand/foot that determines your speed according to the law and road/traffic conditions and there are precious few times and places where 200+ is safe, so derestricting is really only for the track, assuming there are tracks where 300 is possible?

Reality about those autobahns, they are getting so congesteds that the ability to speed at any reasonable rate of knots is getting nigh-on impossible.
I wish we had one.... but OSH would expect us to wear bubble wrap.:blink:

Yup! The latest Autocar mag has a feature on the Porsche GT2 RS and they had a go with a Ferrari 599 on the Autobahn, but had a bit of traffic. Top Gear had the same problem recently too.
That's the real issue, where is it safe to go fast these days? I reckon I could cruise most NZ roads at 160 quite safely but it's those "๖ther idiots" , eh? :innocent: The great thing about the C50T is that it, and therefore I, am quite comfy and happy at the legal limit, but it's got a bit of get-up-and-go if required. A top speed of 170 is plenty fast enough.

Not long changed into second gear when passing thru 170 on the Busa.... on the track of course. There is no place to go fast safely. Safe is a relative term. If safe means NO risk of harm then no speed is safe. A lower speed is always going to improve your chances of less harm if you come off.

Ah yes it's all relative, the C50T might as well be a moped comparing it with the Busa, LOL!
And you're quite right, "safe" is relative and no speed can be absolutely safe and the faster you go the more bits and pieces you're likely to wind up in if you do crash.
After all, if I can break my back and nearly die at 45km/h in a Toyota Estima on an Auckland street, wearing my seatbelt and with the van in safe and legal condition... :bye:

OI! I heard that! :angry: If it wasn't written off and gone I'd accuse you of hurtin' its feelings! :bye:
I was actually surprised how good it was as a coach and business vehicle, and I'm very sad at its demise. Sorta the Corolla of vans really. They're everywhere. It survived the crash really well, but they had to chop it up to get me out, so no chance of it being repaired.
Sorry Cam, off topic!

Just wondering where did you get the gel seat? and how comfortable is it over the standard one?

I imported it from the USA hrough the parts depot. It is definitely more comfortable than the standard seat.

So you bought a zx1400 LAST year and have not ridden it yet???
Are you nuts???
Both are similar bikes and it comes down to personal style and comfort fitting person to bike. Incredible power and great for eating up the miles too. They are not called HYPER bikes for nothing.
Both are sublime machines and both are significant improvements on the previous models.
