You would think they would advertise it in the correct town.

Maybe they couldn't find anyone smart enough in Nelson...

For starters I'd get rid of the 'viewing by appointment"
Then have a café with a gift shop selling overpriced t shirts and café racer parts.
A bar with Nelson beers on tap would be good too, make the gift shop more money
I'm over static displays, would need to have stuff running, and punters could pay extra to be an apprentice for a day.
if they are offering over 80K they can PM me. would need a company vehicle, any old bike would do.

I still live up here, and commute everyday on a bike in the collection....with breakdowns I might get to work every couple of weeks. What they need is a cranky old bastard who'd tell customers to just fuck off if they turned up on a GN250 bobber.

Apparently** the original one was to be in Golden Bay with a conference centre and various other things and a track so you could experience riding some of the bikes.
Sadly their is a motorcycle hating hippie whinging funpolice fuckwit fraternity in golden bay:tugger: and it didn't pass resort consent. That is why it is not in the Tasman district now.
**Various sources.

That's because Manfeild is a mix of the words Manawatu & Feilding. Maybe it would be better to take it up with the folk that named Fielding.
