We're off to Queensland and the Buell has to go.
It's a standard 2006 XB12X with tall seat. The bike is in good order, has been book serviced and kept under cover since new.
It includes hard luggage and top box, a spare drive belt and personalised 'XB12X' number plate.
This is a great NZ all-roads bike.
$8,000 neg.
PM me or phone: (09) 523 5308
for details.

Yeahmaaate. Co-pilot applied for a job in Mt Wellington and got offered a more senior one in Brissy.
I fly to Qld or NSW for most of the new vehicle releases anyway - so I'll continue doing what I do from over there - and hopefully do some more freelancing in the Aus rags.

Just so long as you don't go dropping off the KB radar BD, that wouldn't be a good thing.

Ha! I currently have mortgages in Remuera and Wakerley.
Thanks for the well wishes all. But you don't get rid of me that easy. I'm still doing NZ Bike MEdia - just changing base camps.

Churr. I rang AMPS and asked what is a realistic price for a private sale.
It's a good bike, but I need to quit the vehicle.

It's more than realistic, it's fucking cheap. I'd nearly wholesale buy it at that price.
Anyone looking for one should snap it up asap.

Agreed...a lot of bike for not a lot of coin. Doubt it'll last long on the market

Wow, so many great bikes for not much coin at the moment :gob: If I didn't make a promise to my co-pilot, I would have snapped this one up (or the Kawasaki offered by DMNTD), heck I would have got both!? :innocent:

Cheers. Yeah - looks like I have a buyer - subject to a finance approval tomorrow.
Will be just shy of 11 years. Great times and leaving is quite bitter-sweet. I consider myself to have been lucky enough to have one of the prime-time gigs in motorcycling anywhere in the world - but it's a big career move for the Co-pilot and I can still do my reports from over there - probably get to do more in fact.
