Yup right back to the 80s!

Dream bike, because I can't find one that is roadworthy and not 5 hours away from Auckland.

Would you be interested in an Aussie import that has not been registered in NZ yet? probably cheap - located in Palmerston North

Cheers mate! I'm trying to find one that has wof and rego in a good working condition that I only need to do the cosmetics rather than mechanic work on it.

Get details of the bike, then go to NZTA or whomever. I think if it has the dereg papers from overseas you'll be fine

The bike belongs to my Ma-in-law's husband. He owned it in QLD before they moved to NZ. He has never registered it here, but has the paperwork to do so.
Let me know by pm if you would like photos, or his details to contact directly.

He is thinking of $1000, let me confirm how many kms. It has never been on the road here in NZ (legally).

Thanks for the photos and info mate! Can you please check to see if he's got any proof of establishing a link to the last owner (eg deregistration papers, certificate of registration, invoices, bills of sale, receipts etc). Or any proof that shows it was legally on road there.

Cheers

I've asked for any proof of his ownership while in QLD. You can see the QLD plate in one photo, hopefully he will have some record of that against his name.
It sounds like the mileage is 101000km

The engine looks very clean, did Allan clean it before the photos or it has been rebuild?

He has the QLD certificate of deregistration also.

If anyone would like to get in touch directly with him, pm me.

Today at work I saw someone selling a 1982 CX500. Looked tidy from the photos. Was going to buy it for the girl but she wasn't interested :facepalm:

I might check it out sometime next week.

Dude! Share the love man, I'm still looking for one :facepalm:Will do! Details are at work though. And I only have 2 days left there so I better not forget :facepalm:

From the photos it looks pretty tidy. Price is less than $2000.

I have no idea what model it would be though.

Bike is in Hamilton.

Can't remember anything else.
