Box of magazines, pick up Hamilton. Approx 50 magazines. I got them free off another kb member (can't find the original post) I think someone wanted dibs, if I find out who that is, it's theirs otherwise fair game.

Have a pair of Gaerne size 48 -or 12.5- 13 touring boots. May not be water proof but ok condition. Also pair of orina summer gloves. Lining on one starting to come away size XL. Bought replacement gear to do the Burt. Will add pics when I figure out how to do it on phone. Take them away!

Looks like the gloves have found a home:niceone:

Boots are still here. They are still good condition and I would still wear them if I didn't buy a new pair for a South Island trip.

Large textile jacket, large gloves. More details would be hard to get as I'm currently on the other side of the world. Pick up West Auckland. Send me a PM please, highly unlikely to check this thread.

As above, just put risers on, so had new lines made up
These work fine, don't think they'll fit a Tuono though.

I have a set of old StylMartin Road Race boots here. They've had a bit of a hard time and gone down the road a fair few times. The right boot's shin guard is pretty fucked up from me getting mashed by the bridge at Wangaui, but still better than no boots for someone starting out riding on a tight budget. I have very dainty feet, so almost chicky size. Euro 42, I wear a 7-8 shoe. Free to a good home...pic 'em up at Boyle Kawasaki, or I can courier them to ya if you're out of town.

What is your budget? I would buy a brand new helmet and make sure it fits properly. But if you don't mind shipping stuff back til you get the right size then fc moto is a good site with cheap prices.

I have a helmet, more looking for boots, pants and gloves. I'll check them out :) I got my jacket from 1tonne, which was great, but Im thinking I need to go somewhere and try stuff on first-someone mentioned there's a good shop on barry's point road? Also, does fc moto tend to be true to size?

There's cycletreads and all of the other bike shops to check out.

I don't know. Never bought anything from them as I have everything I need except Kevlar jeans which seem to be hard to find something that are stylish and not 500 bucks. They have a pretty good return policy so I would give it a go.

I can not see me getting another bike and with a possible shift coming up sometime I am clearing out my gear.

It is all give away stuff and I am not interested at all in finding out postage costs etc, this is pick up only or forget it. :nono:

I live in Te Awamutu so if you are keen and local, a good chance to pick up some used gear for zilch.

I'll start with the helmets. The HJC R-PHA-10 is well used. Never been in a fall but the inner padding needs replacing. This has been my main helmet and I will probably bin it. There is a tinted visor that has been used twice. Size M 57.

The Zeus is a M 57, rarely used, heavy but comfortable.

The open face helmets, the FFM is clean and unmarked. The HJC needs a new visor. Both are L's.

1 pr nylon over trousers.

1 pr rain boots. Size 46-47. These have a zip with velco flap, rubber soles.

1 pr throw over saddle bags. Old and well used, large with duc tape patch work in places.

A tail seat bag that has bungee's to hook onto the bike.

1 pr new hand guards that bolt onto the bars. The right side bracket would not fit between the switch block and the master cylinder so never used.

1 sports bar frame for a venture rack frame. 25.5mm centres.

3 pr gloves, well used but ok for spares. about medium size.

Neck warmer, never used, a few balaclarva's.

I can only post 6 attachments per post so will throw the rest onto a following post.

Dinner was brilliant, most unexpected but very welcome,our hosts did us proud, we'd go back to The Long Acre Peach and Porker anytime.
Good news, we got in touch with awa355 and I'd like to say a big thank you to awa355 for the items he bestowed upon me, I now no longer to need to source new gloves, in fact I have 2 sets of near new ones.
The Hand guards look likely to fit and once more a big thnaqk you to awa355.
Had a brilliant night ride back to Dorkland Te Pahu road went begging but the back roads up the side of the Nile(Waikato) river are good and open.
Come on you lot awa is giving away some damn fine equipment because he's simply not got a use for it anymore, it's all great gear and I'm sure he'd just like to see it get used by other bikers.
Thanks again awa and don't be a stranger, Kb is still your home.

Hi Awa, I'm keen to see if the tinted HJC visor will fit my helmet (which is HJC also), if it hasn't been binned already. Friend of mine lives in Puahue, is that anywhere near you?

Hi guys, Ive had seriously bad health for 7 years, but have scraped enough together to do my dream and get a bike to ride the SI. Unfortunately i just sold/gave away essentially brand new gear 4 months ago, it had sat around so long I thought Ill never get round to this. But my MS and back problems are good right now so Im up for it this summer.

Im about size xxl-xxxl, 6ft1, size 45 I think (size 10.5 us runner shoes). Anyone has any nice gear being given away Id love a hola, Im in Auck for a while. Cheers all.

I've got an old set of youth motocross boots I no longer use - they are a Euro size 40 (US youth 7). The uppers are leather, and they have some additional plastic ankle protection. You can see what they looked like new here: https://www.foxracing.com/youth-comp-3-boots/18238.html
They have had quite a bit of use, but are in reasonable condition, except the stitching is coming apart on the tongue of one boot. The stitching coming apart was the excuse I needed to get some boots that fit properly and have more ankle support, so these ones don't get used now.

Free if you pick them up in Rotorua, or $27 if you want them posted anywhere in NZ (add $3 for rural delivery).
