For Sale: 2007 Cb900

[bomma]

Hey all, here's my baby that im selling. got her from wild west honda a couple of months back and she's been awesome!! i really dont want to sell her but due to a recent bin i had (on a different bike) my insurance premium's been jacked up and i now cant really afford to keep her around (im a poor student). she handles awesome and is the source of endless thrills.

ive listed her on trademe (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Sports/auction-163382571.htm) at a lil bit more than what ive listed here, id know she'd be going to a good home if bought by a kber :niceone:

pm me or text/call me on 021 119 5747 if keen to have a look. i tried uploading pic from album but its not letting me so go to "the nest" in social groups and ive got a pic of her up on there

EDIT: Since i am looking to downgrade after this sale, ill consider a smaller bike as part trade. will only consider 400cc or smaller with $4000 value or less. I have also updated the trademe link.

cheers,
nish :done:

ah you poor thing !

[AllanB]

Shame on you. Shame shame.

Just use your studen loan to pay :cool:

[Ragingrob]

Aw man that sucks, so you're gonna get a 250 or something? Honda's the way to go :P, especially for the H(onda)SMC :buggerd:

[bomma]

here's a few pics

man of course i dont WANT to sell her but the poor things spent the better part of my care either in the garage or accumulating commuting kms!!! Did you hear that?!?! COMMUTING KMS:eek5:!!!! thats not what i got her for!! ive realised that she'd be happier in a home where she sees open road and gets her pegs scraped every now and then.....not happy to see her go but i think its best for both of us :crybaby:

[skidMark]

Nooooooo it's so mint too :crybaby:

[klyong82]

How much for a good friend like me? Would you swap for a car? Are you giving up on bikes?

[xwhatsit]

Awww, shit Bomma. Time for a 400cc dirt bike commuting weapon with road tyres.

[Squiggles]

Should trade with the other dude on here for a tlr :niceone:

[EJK]

What will be next? Well surely you'll need a bike ;)

i agree..
don't think the insurance premiums would be better on a TLR tho.

hey kim, im happy to knock a couple hundy off but i dont want to make much more of a loss on her coz i only got her 2 months ago and all ive done is extend the rego and wof by 6 months...sorry no way im gonna settle for a cage and hell no i aint givin up biking!!!

lol im lookin at something smaller than the current so maybe a 250 or a vfr400


Should trade with the other dude on here for a tlr :niceone:

lol as nallac pointed out im doing this so i can actually AFFORD to ride...itd be like swapping the ball of lead chained to my ankle with a steel gerder :P

[EJK]

EH??? EY????

wtf why a 250 or a 400? You surely deserve something atleast a 600! ;)

[bomma]

^ lol what i deserve and what i can afford are, unfortunately, on two completely different levels!! im keen on that zx6r tho....if i can get this beast sold soon, i mite completely ignore my financial situation and buy that and realise two months after that i cant afford to keep her either :2thumbsup boys and our bikes aye :clap:

[HungusMaximist]

Bro, bit shocked you'll selling the old Hornet but it frikking costly keeping a bike!

I totally get you, tell me about it, commuting on a 900 cc is pointless!!

Everytime I take the blade for a commute I keep telling myself, "oh man, the poor, poor tyres!".

I've looked trading something smaller also (but not anytime too soon), like a dual purpose 250/400 for commuting (those new suzuki motards look good), or a easy 600 cc.

Times changing fellows, I've gone back to cycling a bit...

[bomma]

i hear ya dude!! i took a massive reality check and manned up to the facts....n yea ive started cycling a bit more too...and plus it really helps that my papers are in tamaki this sem coz my parents are happy to lend me a cage if the weather's crap or i need to get to uni in a hurry for any reason!!

i should post up how wonderful my parents are in the "parents group" in the social groups :clap:

[hullfella]

Is the cb still for sale?

[nallac]

its on trade me, so i take it it still is..

[bomma]

spot on nallac, yep it still is mate :niceone:

[bomma]

bumppity bump bump!!! :2thumbsup

[klyong82]

I'll give you 2 dozen beer of your preference in exchange bro...I think that;s the fairest deal

cool ill take this one:

Vielle Bon Secours:
This tops the list of the world's most expensive beer, costing around £500 (equivalent to around $1,000) per bottle or about £39 (equivalent to around $78) per pint. It can only be found in a bar called the Bierdrome in London.

thanks kim :2thumbsup:beer:

Hey Bomma, maybe you can add to your trademe linky that you might consider a cheaper bike as part trade.... I am sure there will be plenty of people looking to upgrade from a smaller to a bigger bike

[bomma]

not a bad idea kimmer....ur a genius matey!!! might save me the hassle of having to sell mine and then having to start huntin and stuff :niceone:

[bomma]

sweet ive updated my tm listing with the part sale and i guess il do the same for my first post here...

EDIT: first post has been updated with the working link to the tm listing, approx current kms and also added that ill consider a smaller bike as part trade :done:

[motorbyclist]

consider a trade for a 2003 R6? previous owner was a careful lady who put on handwarmers and current owner only really uses it for commuting. it could do with lowering and has a slight scuff where lady owner dropped it in driveway but otherwise mint ;)

if not, get an NC30!

look! (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Sports/auction-161336311.htm)

and this guy is even looking to upgrade! (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Sports/auction-161850229.htm)

[bomma]

^ aaaargh im so tempted...how many kms?? wait NO i shudnt....*but its an r6*......but the whole reason im doing this is to....*screw reason find out about the bike*.....no shut up.....*get it*......SHUT UP!!!

ok sorry about that umm nah man cant do it....would defeat the purpose of sellin my bike if i got one that's worth just as much and goes faster.....ill look at a smaller bike when i sell this one....the guy looking to upgrade is asking for a bit much dont ya think?? its done a fuckload of kms.....engine will prolly be needing some work very shortly.....

[motorbyclist]

lol mine is sitting at over 70k now and no record of engine work at all aside from oil and filter - provided the reg/rec is aftermarket there isn't much to go wrong

it's an NC30 - they don't need work (cept for the REALLY thrashed ones that never get cared for)

mechanically bombproof - you've seen the abuse i give mine and she still goes hard

i'd be more concerned about the fairings if i were you

couldn't hurt to look, his asking price is $4321.56 - take me, i'll announce every little flaw and if it isn't too badly bent we'll offer $3900 and move up to $4000

plus with that gorgeous horny hornet infront of him he'd take ANY offer

not bad for what is known as the best bike under 600cc ever built

ok that last bit is arguable as some prefer the RS250, but as the RS250 isn't bombproof like the nc30, i say the nc30 is the best and RS250 will just have to take 2nd place

[Gremlin]

check with Morcs on those bikes... I believe one of them is ex his, and he said don't touch it with a barge pole.

TBH, the hornet is fooken cheap to run, with cheap servicing, and honda reliability. Tyres last over 10k, even with commuting, if you run road tyres, yet you can still have fun on the weekends.

Services have cost $150-$300 (inc the "expensive" ones)... Compare that to the zx10 costing $1300-$1400 (needs tyres and stuff EVERY service)... its flippin' cheap.

[nallac]

Im with Gremlin on this, the Net is quite cheap to run and service an a shit load of fun.
But if he can't afford to keep it well then he's gotta get rid of it:no::no:

well can't beat advice like that - find out which one to dodge

[Squiggles]

The mixed colour one is the one to dodge apparently, its in another thread, tis owned by folcans brother

[motorbyclist]

not entirely surprising

the other one looked way too tidy to have been maltreated

[Ragingrob]

Ah so THAT'S how much VFRs go for in Auckland! :shutup:

The second link is my old one. Dont touch it.

not a bad idea kimmer....ur a genius matey!!! might save me the hassle of having to sell mine and then having to start huntin and stuff :niceone:

Hows a VFR sound?
one lady owner... never been wheelied or dropped
missing its lower fairings though so ill give you $ as well.

[bomma]

Gremlin: its not the servicing im worried about, its the insurance that's killing me right now. thanks for the advice though. when did you get a hornet??

Kim: no way dude!! i dont want to get anythin with that many kms, over 400ccs and that old!!

Morcs: cheers mate, will definately keep my distance!!

Chris: are you serious?? am keen to come check it out if you are....will try and drag andrew with me if you are serious...how many kms?? what year?? more details plz

[JeremyW]

How bout my bike. I am not looking to part trade unfortunately but I am keen to sell. Good bike, very cheap. TM listing here. (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=162560976)

[motorbyclist]

looks nice

no "my FZR is fucked" threads on KB

only had it 6 months though...

[JeremyW]

lol yea I bought it off the guy who owned motorcycle surgery, Ian, at the beginning of the year because he was closing up shop. Only selling because I have been offered a good deal on the new one :)
