As I now have a van that I bought to be used as race bike transport once every couple of weeks. If any Kb member needs to get their bike home from a bin out my way or a breakdown for that matter it will be available.
just give me a Holla
Ill have a couple of sets of tie downs and a jumper kit in there
Most bikes will fit but a full dress harley might be a squeeze :doh:

wicked!

That makes 2 for out here. - but by the sounds of things they really need at least 2 down that south way :P

Remember its not just for bins! because we dont usually do that out west here we have more of a repuatation for our bikes breaking down before we get to thrash the nuts off them even.

Im just refreshing this so most KB ers can see it.
add it in as full workshop.place to crash if needed and recovery vehicle -possibly self drive if Im working
Ill cover say west auck/shore to wellsford.
also my place in Mangawhai would be available to store bikes broken or busted as if a temporrary secure storage is needed.
once I get back from Taupo Ill rig up a propper bike ramp and tie down points.

I got a LWB ute with a single cab (this means a 2.3m tray), but the ramp is the sore point. I hope your deck is a little lower than mine frosty, even on the well side the height means I bottom out the bike going over the top. I have got to get a better ramp, does anyone have any ideas?

I was going to use the ute to take the bike into get it certified, but the motory bit contacted the timber (yes I know- I need something made of a metal), this caused the back wheel to spin a little and the bike moved in a sideways fashion and made things a little awkward.

I am sorry that I haven't got the spare seal to you yet, I am pretty sure what the box looks like that it's in, I just haven't seen the box.

Mind you, you owe me $8 too.
