Basically I'm leaving the country for an unknown amount of time. I'm selling everything I own except my tool catalogue and my laptop/kindle/phone. And some clothes.

Of some interest to you cunts may be my grubby ol vfr. 89 nc30. It is not cosmetically pretty and the average vfr purist would hate on me because of it. But purists can suck my cock. I'll be honest with you. I have crashed it a few times. I have beasted it around taupo and manfield a bunch of times. The lower and side fairings are in pieces in various bins around the country. It is currently not road legal. It will be deregistered in a month unless someone really wants a road going track hack. Motor is all good. Steering stem bearings NEED replacing. Has steel brake lines on the front. Has an older model (I don't know which) rs250 shock, which makes the tail about 30mm higher than stock. Shock fiddling done by robert taylor. I bought it off a girl who used to race an nc30. Same with the forks. They have racetech damping emulators and stiffer springs. Spare set of wheels. With half used dunlop alpa12r (sticky road tires, not bad on the track either). A bunch of jets in case you feel like diddling with exhausts/carbs. A complete set of seals for the front brakes/master cylinder. I think there is an oil change as well (motul oil and filter). Probably a few spare levers. A few other bits and pieces if I can round them all up. I see this being most use to a racer or someone wanting a cheap track hack. Or road going hack. hack hack. I'll entertain offers of $1500 or more. I just want the old whore gone. Before I change my mind and have it encased in carbonite.

Pm me or bang questions in here. I'll try not bullshit you too much.

Got any photos? what fairings does it have on it? would it survive a ride back to Auckland? I do have some in-laws in palmy that I could survive a visit to...:-P

It will definitely survive a ride to auckland. Not sure how you would deal with all the spares though ?

I can take some photos if you like ?

That would be awesome. Could either leave at the in laws til Christmas or usually motorcycle movers will chuck them on a truck for 50$. What kind of kms are on it?

any luck on those pics or anything yet? not in a hurry, but thought you might be. Also might be down in welly for work Fri 12th, could ride the bike back up. are all bits there for it to be roadworthy and get a wof before the trip? Otherwise would probably bike trans it... Not often one of these comes up as a road going track bike (nice to be able to ride to and from the track!) That's what my last one was too.
