Trademe moved my Scorpio SX4

[Corsa.co]

Trademe sent me an email, about the Yamaha Scorpio SX4 (225cc Single) i had listed under Motorcycles/other.
Telling me it had been moved to Motorcycles/Sports :laugh: . And that if i listed in wrong section again, i could lose my membership.

So if you were to compare a Yamaha Scorpio SX4, to a "Sports" Car...which one would it be? Lol.

a shit one?

It's a commuter bike, reTardMe are a bunch of idiots.

You could have chosen 'Any Style'...theres 20 listed in there..http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/CategoryAttributeSearchResults.aspx?search=1&mcat=0001-0026-1255-&sidebar=1&39=&40=Yamaha&153=scorpio&9=0&9=0&24=0&24=0&51=0&51=0&sidebarSearch_keypresses=7&sidebarSearch_suggested=0

And only five (well four if you remove the R1) listed under 'Sports'...http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/CategoryAttributeSearchResults.aspx?search=1&mcat=0001-0026-1255-&sidebar=1&39=Sports&40=Yamaha&153=scorpio&9=0&9=0&24=0&24=0&51=0&51=0&sidebarSearch_keypresses=0&sidebarSearch_suggested=0

Does that mean all road bikes [which is what I think the Scorpio is] should be in the Others category? Even though it's got 'Sports' styling?

I'd like to know for in case I sell off my Scorpio.... It's certainly not a Cruiser or Tourer [I think].

My first thoughts almost exactly!A Great Value Commuter. So if we have cars and sports cars.

I was trying to think of a comparable car to suggest to them,as an example (But of course you can`t reply to the email)(Which may have been a good thing :-) )

Had a similar problem knowing where to look when I was in the market for my Bandit. Not a 'Cruiser', you would have to be optimistic to call it a 'Sports' bike and you wouldn't really define it as a 'Tourer'.

[Tigadee]

They [TM] really should start a category called Road or Street Bikes...

'Commuter' sounds wrong because any bike can be a commuter bike.

I wouldn't necessary complain. This theoreticaly makes it the FASTEST road going Scorpio in New Zealand. :yes: :innocent:

Funny, one's even listed as a dual purpose?? Wonder what 2 purposes they have in mind!
It's like the GN's, most seem to be listed as tourers, many more as cruisers & 1 as dual purpose. A very versatile bike

There does seem to be a glaring omission in the categories for just plain old 'road' bikes. I had the same problem selling my last bike, not really sports, not really a tourer and not old enough to be vintage/classic.
