And i spied this fairing equiped ZXR250 1$ reserve on Trademe http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=49754964 ....
It ends in one hour from now O_O, i wonder if i could own a zxr250 in one hour? or is a bike with 60,000 km's no good?

As ya can see ive made a bid or two, but you guys\gals thing i should go for it? i mean it'll be my first bike.

gah,
So, Opinions Please?

Neat bike mate, I would have it checked over by a mech if you buy it.

It's been for sale since the 5th March so you've had plenty of time to do that, have you? :confused:

:angry2: Well as with Trademe auctions you really are buying blind,

Unless someone in auckland reading this wants to go for a free blat on a zxr250 and tell me what its like? :D :yes:

Ahh, im buying with a bit of risk involved, its almost giving me that excitement shot of adrenaline :D lol

Well thats true, I had a Honda VT250 Magna Checked out for me by ApplicatioNZ.
All was well :-) but i missed out as i couldnt sell my car quick enough to purchase the bike before someone else did :(
