Hi guys, I am looking for a road registered dirtbike for general use and low maintenance.
I will be in the Nelson area for six months from April and rather than bringing my KTM over from aus (its $500 just to ship it), i would like to buy a cheapish dirt bike. Don't care what condition its in cosmetically as long as its reliable and mechanically sound with a WOF. I will be using it for some gentle trail riding, riding around on some land I have over there and some general exploring...
I would prefer an XR400 or XR250 but would look at a DR, KDX, KLR, DT, TT, IT, PE, MTX or whatever, of whatever vintage - anything from a 125 upwards.
If anyone wants to rent a similar bike out for 3-6 months then let me know too...
I will be in Christchurch for a while too so can look anywhere in the upper south island...
can anyone suggest any decent bike dealers or sources of people selling bikes in the Nelson area?
