Okay, has to go, am legal to ride again but live in town now, not the suburbs and have no room to park her and cant bear to live it outside so am looking for a small 50 - 250cc bike (also so i can be legally riding aswell)

1991 Honda CBR400RR
65,000 or there abouts
New Paint job
Just been stripped down completely and rebuilt because i couldnt ride it for 6 months
Good tyres - both hardly any use
Carbon fibre front mudguard
REGO on hold
Braided brake lines
Manual
Have photos of throughout the rebuild if required - otherwise search under the general maintanence section where i photographed it all.
does have a cracked windscreen but has been glued

Does have a cracked fuel line where it connects into the carbs, i am waiting for the uni holidays in 1 week when i can get back out to whitby and replace this and reconnect it back up, carbs are off at the moment.

Cannot be fuct with trademe so will consider all REASONABLE offers, you will be suprised how cheap i will let it go for, or swap for a small 50cc or 250cc bike or scooter, just something to get me around town without catching the bus!

Call or txt 0273430095 or drop me a PM

If anyone buys this to turn into an F3 racer I'll be very disappointed. This bike is just lovely.

Cost me $3,100 originally
have spent around $1,000 - $1,500 on it tidying it up

I am looking for just under half this or a decent trade.

I answered an ad for a budgie going cheap.
"how much for the budgie" I asked?
"$500" he replied
"I thought your ad said it was going cheap?"
"It does go cheap - sometimes it talks too."

The bike will be in Wellington (Thorndon) from friday with the required work completed (fuel lines reinstalled) so can be test riden from then.

I have found a scooter :) to buy so am eager to sell this bike soon.
will sell for less in as is condition (need to replace fuel line (part supplied) into carbereuter (sp?) and reinstall carbs, for anyone mechanically minded, it then saves me getting the bike transported into wellington and doing it :yes: )

WTF??? :gob:

Ok I am pretty confused. Yesterday when I spoke to you on the phone I offered to come straight out to Whitby to view the bike - you said you would give me a ring and arrange the visit with a view to purchase 'as is'. :dodge:

Her_B4 then sent you a PM to let you know that we were very interested in it regardless of whether it was going or not, and would prefer to see it in Whitby as opposed to going into town. Neither of us had a response :shutup: and came across this update by accident.

Is it for sale or not??? :nono: If it is - can we please arrange to view it anywhere at all??? I REPEAT we would like to see it with a view to purchasing it AS IS.

Am I not talking english? :shutup:

Plans changed, have since found a :scooter: im purchasing so have now decided I will advertise it 'as is' :bye: until such time i have the time to work on it.

Can be viewed in whitby on thursday evening (unrunning), otherwise in thorndon friday on (running and more $$$)

29th May 2007, 21:13
I would swap it for my GPX, surely that's better than a gutless scooter? And its pretty good on gas too, 22km/l.
I'd organise transport etc as well, I don't mind.

Flick me a pm and I can arrange to have funds transfered this afternoon and I can pick the bike up tonight.

Is there something in the water at the moment!? All these nice decent sporty 400's on offer for a reasonable number of folding tokens! :shit: ...and no one wants them!

Now listen up - all you dirty buggers with cash who are sitting around going "Umm, err... I dunno - maybe?" You better not be hanging around when I finally get my own cashies together to buy one of these beauties! :nono:

Donations of cash or bike will be gladly accepted at any time! Alternatively, if any business would like to buy paint up and donate it to me, I am will whore myself as a flying billboard! On the promise of never painting it :blip:
Alternativley, if anyone wants to donate me the $$ to purchase said tasty bike, I may be willing to whore generally...
