[BigRed2007]

Ok well insurers have said it is uneconomical to repair

I insured it for 3 grand... so if they do give a pay out...

I will need KBERS help me find another bike....

I will keep you guys updated as to what they insurance companies says, and I am with state so lets see what they say....

but atm I have been look at trade me,

I still love cruisers but a naked sports bike is ok....

If anyone knows anyone or dealers that could hook me up with a good deal please pm me , or send me pics of the bike + trade me link etc. I will search all of them...


Thanks

Yoinks! Ah well, least you get to go bike shopping again! :sweatdrop

I'm sure you're going to get everyone giving you good advice...so I won't! ...

'ceeept to say.... buy a little ol'Hornet? :innocent:

[BigRed2007]

Well mate, help me out tell me how much they are???

KNow any one selling them at a good price???


Why a hornet :P

[jafar]

whats your budget ??

[BigRed2007]

Well the bike was worth 3000 so 3 g is my budget, not much but its something...

This is based on insurance paying out the 3 grand so its still early days yet ... state yeah

lol sports...

down in wanganui.... rather it be in aucks man !! :P

I dont mind sports but naked no fairings lol,

[carbacca]

damn sorry to hear the bike got totalled. twas a nice bike too

not much out there for that price in the 250 category. the only new-ish ones would be the GN250 or SX4 Scorpio. for most others at about $3000 it would be 15-20 years old (bandit250, hornet250, cbr250 the usual) which i dont think you would be too keen on

did you think to apply for an exemption? you would probably get it quite easily; although not sure you actually want more power at this stage...

[BigRed2007]

I might actually apply for an extention but yeah dont really want more power lol,

I have seen a few nice bikes but yeah might need to save up more for a bit....

[rwh]

I take it you've seen this one?

I cant get to napier but its a good bike for the next buyer:)

Unfortunately just looking at some bikes like Bandits, hornets, any naked sports and looking at any cruisers at a good price

Thanks though, :)

[MSTRS]

too many dings .... and its in napier...


Thanks though, :)

You might be being a bit fussy? Doubt you'll find much in the 250 range at that price that isn't 'less than perfect'.
And what's wrong with Napier?

[yungatart]

So you want a 250 cruiser for $3000, with no dings...
Tui, aqnyone?

Not the best idea getting this bike, bigred is only on his learners and this is a 400cc bike, there is a reason why the law tells people on a learners to have a max cc rating of 250.

[BigRed2007]

I am just trying to find a bike with not too many hassles...

And if it means i will have to wait till my bike riding career wil have to go on hold till my finances catch up

Ps: nothing wrong with napier just got no way of going down there or back...

[xwhatsit]

Heheh, if somebody would pillion me to Napier I'd ride it back to Auckland for you. Or can you catch the train? Pay my train fare and you get one cheap delivery service :yes:
