[Tigadee]

Not the best photo I'd use when selling my bike! :killingme

[Phantom Limb]

Hes doing a burnout.......... On the grass?

How long did it take to get the grass smouldering?

[bogan]

Hes doing a burnout.......... On the grass?

How long did it take to get the grass smouldering?

Notice how he doesn't say anything about engine condition. I reckon thats just oil smoke from startup.

[LankyBastard]

It's the clutch. :lol:

[mossy1200]

I asked him.

[ducatilover]

I like a skid, but on the grass is just taking the piss. Even a GN250 will light up first gear if you're keen on tarmac

I love the bit where he says it's fast. That's why it's learner legal?

[ellipsis]

...he doesn't know what colour power band it has...i reckon its a pink one...

[ducatilover]

He's going to do a real skid for me :D this is good.

[Zamiam]

I asked him.

So have you googled it as he suggested :lol:

[nudemetalz]

Also, if you put stones on the grass it will make tyre smoke.
Bye bye clutch,..chain,...tyre...errr pink powerband...

[Nova.]

' im sure this bike comes with a silver powerband'

"I have no idea about this but I am running it through for a warrant early next week so I will ask and find out ... will post the actual colour of the powerband when I know for a fact...thanks"

i fucking lold.

[archie-no2]

I guess his girlfriend wont be impressed when she finds out hes stolen her jacket.

[Banditbandit]

I asked him.

Lots of people have asked him ... love the questions and comments about the colour of the power band ...

Jeez ... you are a bunch of cruel cunts ..but fucking funny ...

[ellipsis]

...I reckon he should join up here...he'd do well...

[Tigadee]

LOL :killingme

Some people are actualy bidding on it! Logic must be, "It's been ridden hard, so it must be a good bike..."

[Glowerss]

LOL :killingme

Shit at 100$ I'd buy that fucker too if it was in auckers! The parts would be worth at least that :lol:

This I want to see!!!!:scooter:

[ducatilover]

This I want to see!!!!:scooter:
Well, using mine is cheating, but if anyone wants to lend me a standard GN? :D


Mine's got a rainbow powerband

[caspernz]

Don't get ahead of yourselves now fellas, the poor clown is still trying to establish which powerband colour his mighty bike has...:banana::clap:

I added my question, couldn't resist :rolleyes:

[george formby]

Lots of people have asked him ... love the questions and comments about the colour of the power band ...

Jeez ... you are a bunch of cruel cunts ..but fucking funny ...

I concur. Seems like a nice chap, though. Touch naive p'rhaps... :banana:

[Drew]

I wish I could hear what the warrant guy has to say about power bands.

Other than that, I don't see the problem.

[Fast Eddie]

' im sure this bike comes with a silver powerband'

"I have no idea about this but I am running it through for a warrant early next week so I will ask and find out ... will post the actual colour of the powerband when I know for a fact...thanks"

i fucking lold.

I did too, I so hope he does ask at the WOF station..

[meteor]

I wish I could hear what the warrant guy has to say about power bands.

Oh too right, I'd love to see the look on his face when he realises all you evil bastards have been taking the piss. Or indeed the testing station guy...

[FuriousD]

I'm sure this model has a silver powerband with an orange stripe. If I recall correctly this was the limited edition model put out for Richard Cranium supporters..."

Whoever put that comment up, you deserve a pint and a pat on the back. I was in stitches laugh at this and that just blew me away! Legends

I'm starting to wonder though, who is taking the piss out of who?

Surely nobody is as, let's call it naive, as this seller??:whistle:

[awa355]

From what I have seen of some warrant guys knowledge of motorbikes, he's quite likely to get a serious answer.

[Drew]

[mossy1200]

Could I have a close up picture of the ground damage. Im trying to calculate the horsepower by the skid damage. A soil sample would be even better. ssmossy (326 ) 7:00 am, Thu 18 Oct

I just couldnt help myself.

[Str8 Jacket]

Q: Load of rubbish has pink power band for the girls waynis12 (178 ) 9:09 pm, Wed 17 Oct
A:lol....many would beg to differ....those that race 250 class love them and generally dont like people with attitudes like you 10:12 pm, Wed 17 Oct

Seller Comment: to waynis12...interestingly there are alot of bikes on trademe and you think this type of bike is for girls...yet your looking at it and have even gone as far as reading the questions and answers...lol...and then you go as far as submitting a childish homophobic comment...says a lot really


I would like to think that he thinks he is taking the piss out of us as much we are him, however I am not sure. This little gem from last night made me giggle!! TBH though, at that price I am seriously thinking of buying it.

[FJRider]

From what I have seen of some warrant guys knowledge of motorbikes, he's quite likely to get a serious answer.

With a bit of luck ... the tester will direct him to motorcycle dealer ... to ask there ... :lol:

[Banditbandit]

Someone's point out to him that he's being trolled (bugga .. that was fun) .. I wonder how much difference that will make.

[cheshirecat]

[rapid van cleef]

thats really quite amusing

[McFatty1000]

Gonna go with most of the comments are from people here?

[SMOKEU]

I almost feel sorry for the seller.

[McFatty1000]

Nearly - thinking about that poor little bike makes me slightly less so...

[Road kill]

He was funny:Punk:,but the questions from the trolls were pretty weak:yawn:.

[FJRider]

Oh wait ... :wings:

[speights_bud]

Made me think of this:

The bit about the muffler bearings did it for me, I've pissed my pants.:laugh:

[GSF]

The bit about the muffler bearings did it for me, I've pissed my pants.:laugh:

Thought I'd follow through on that one - "hi mate, asking about the muffler bearings like comfreak91 did - could you get the WOF guy to have a look at those as well? he should be able to spot them no worries and see if they're worn. it's pretty important cause as you know these FZRs rev hard, if muffler bearing seizes at high RPM then exhaust gases will be directed back into the cylinders and you can blow the cylinder heads right off - expensive problem!"

[FJRider]

Only 11 un-answered questions ...

[caspernz]

Only 11 un-answered questions ...

Well I read he's gonna be away for the weekend, so can we dream up a few more trick questions for him?

Maybe we can get to 50 unanswered questions....:rolleyes:

Im confused. I thought a exup valve prevented rear entry by exaust gas and hondas.

But the flux capacitor that the later models had fitted ... fixed that.

Didn't it ... ???

[caspernz]

The muffler bearings past the wear limit will cause the TC sensor to give a false signal to the ECU which in turn will cause the EXUP valve to flutter, but only above 12,000 rpm....right??

But...apparently filling the tyres with CO2 remedies this completely!!:niceone:

What if a big blow-off valve was fitted instead .. ??? At 15,000 rpm ... it would sound awesome ...

But the blow-off valve is standing beside the bike doing the mighty grass burning thingee??:laugh:

[Laava]

You guys are being mean! How do you expect to get a share of the whitebait haul?

[meteor]

I wonder is he's long lining for whitebait, I saw it on a fishing show with great results :yes: Maybe we could ask him?

[Laava]

With the tiny hooks and the cheese? I believe they were filleting them as well!

[dangerous]

Only 11 un-answered questions ...yeah LOL, cant wait... shit he'd better bring us a decent amount of white bait back...
...hang on, white bait, bait... this fulla might be seting us up guys...

[ducatilover]

Who doesn't do skids though?

ME, too damn old :cool:

Ye big Jessie

[McFatty1000]

Who doesn't do skids though?

Me - do you know how much a tyre seems to a student? Thats like four weeks food to me...

[ducatilover]

Me - do you know how much a tyre seems to a student? Thats like four weeks food to me...
Four weeks food? Bro, those are some cheap tyres...
And yes, I do know what they cost to a student :bleh:

[unstuck]

Fuckin hilarious, keep up the good work guys.:2thumbsup:lol::lol:

[unstuck]

And I dont think you will get any whitebait because he will be using a gill net on the beach at bruce bay to try and get some.:rolleyes:

[Tigadee]

But the flux capacitor that the later models had fitted ... fixed that.

No, it was the Heisenberg Compensators that eventualy solved the backflow of hydroflouric electron gases.

"Headlight fluid been topped up?"...

"Muffler bearings"...

"wheel synchronisers out of whack"...

"Powerband tensioner"...

"upside down radial reed valve rotery sump, thus the need to not have a expansion chamber"...

"basket for the handlebars?"...

"check the width and tensional velocity of the power band as the colour only denotes the year the band was produced. In an ideal world, the best combination in my opinion would be 12mm and 63 feet per newton kg"...

"if muffler bearing seizes at high RPM then exhaust gases will be directed back into the cylinders and you can blow the cylinder heads right off - expensive problem!" :killingme I'll bet!


Best one yet... "The black model is the most powerful 250 ever produced, and is actually brought out as a 5 stroke. To confirm, it has a double gold powerband with silver stripe. This is a rare find..." :lol:

Now that he relises how rare and valuable the bike is he will relist at 14k reserve.

Wait.

Someone even thicker believed it all and rushed around and offered him 3k cash for a quick sale.
