The age thing is because I really want to help the young up and comers BUT
This deal is a sattelite deal to my main team, so, you go find your backer and come to me with the cash, and you get the ride.
I was thinking that there seems to be a bunch of people on here wanting to help others to race, so if these people are serious about this, I have delayed the sale of this bike to give some one the opportunity we have all been talking about.
i guess it is a matter of someone using there marketing skills/ contacts, to go out and find a company/backer/supporter to fund the lease fee, then the rider needs to find his/her own running costs.
Have fun, and never give up!

Why not? Somebody sponsoring is either looking for $6k of publicity, a $6k tax writeoff, wanting to be seen to do some good to the community or a combination of the above.
$6000 is fuck all to a medium size business. Problem is getting them publicity, track day goodies or similar in return.

At the rider/sponsors descretion or only to predefined/agreed events?
The $6000 dollar fee is a lease fee only! So the challenge is for some one to find a supporter/sponsor to lease this package.
How long will the lease last, one seasion?, also is there a right to renew the lease or purchase the bike?
PS, would prefer this deal to go to a young rider, not an old has been like me.
By young rider, do you mean young racer or someone looking at getting into serious racing and has experience/abilities?
Thanks.

The deal is for the remaining VIC Club rounds and the full NZ champs including the streets if the sponsor/rider wishes.
If the machine was required for an event the team was not attending, you would be able to take bike.
The lease is from 1st July to the end of the Summer racing series at Paeroa.
I could discuss the option to purchase when season is over, as I have been asked that same question by a few other people as well.
The rider, it could be either of the options you asked about

Awesome idea Shaun, hopefully somebody out there is able to take advantage of it.

Thanks Dss3, that is exactually what I'm thinking. I have been reading through the KB Sponsorship thread lately, and thought this is a way to combine the 2 together and to get another arse out there, it just needs a shaker an a moover to go out and make it happen, that easy!:blip:

damn it... once i've got some F3 experience i'd be keen. Bit of a leap diving straight into F2.
Is there any chance a similar deal will come up for next season?

K14's your man.
Team Kiwibiker anyone?
Thousands of registered users. $20 each ought to give us some spare cash as well.

Absolutely - perfect way to earn 50% of the fee.

Another great inititive by Shaun, full marks. People should be giving their left nut to get on a bike like this.
People must realise that to buy prep a 600 for a season costs mega bucks, not to mention the time it takes to do. not just buying the bike but to have spare rims, warmers, stands etc, so to lease one is a great idea esp with great backup support.
This is a very cheap way to race at the top level on a great bike, I am sure you will be inundated (is that a word??) with requests as there is a lot of young talent coming through.

Jim2, my offer of this package is aimed at people that get on this site and rattle away all day about riders needing help, it is also a way of saying thanks to the board for the massive effort for Jason Mcewan last year.
There are a lot of people on this site that could pull the 6k I have offered this ride at, either from there own wallets or from a corporation, as per a certain man did for a very keen Auckland racer we all know very well.
This challenge is for some one to step up to the plate and go out and find the money, not to try and create a Team KiwiBiker.
I keep reading how so and so has no money to go racing, well if some one wants soandso on a good package with good support, here is the chance.

Roger, dodger!
I'm trying to get the sponsorship application guidelines from work(Datacom), because I'm dead keen to get a certain person a bit more experience at a higher level, plus I'm trying to work on organising this sort of thing for my own benefit. Begging for money takes a certain style and approach, and if I can get some expertise in the area I might be able to turn a gift for bullshit into a living.

Add up the number of meetings and work out the number of people that attend these meetings.
Add in, the cost of some GREAT graphic (say $1,000)
$7,000 is quite a competitive amount for a rolling billboard.
Some corporates would like a weekly report for the staff or company newsletter, pictures for the website and attendance at corporate do's.
banks won't be keen but tech companies with a 'younger' outlook would be a good idea.
Trick is to present a package with a CLEAR exec summary of exactly what deliverables (note - not podium finishes, you cannot promise you will win) will come from said $7,000..
Cheers

Yes, and then again.... no...
Perhaps we could put you in charge of the signwriting though? Given the imaginative spelling above I'm sure you would attract attention...
What about contacting Fronterra? They might be keen on a white (milk) and yellow (butter / cheese) bike that goes like stink...
