I'm thinking bout selling the bike soon and getting a ute as the bike just isnt practical anymore.
Im thinking december is the best time to sell with summer and all.
What do you guys think.
Its a 2003 Gsx250, but it has some fairing damage.
250s are always popular for the whole l plate thing but still reckon it'll be worth more in summer.

If your looking at it purely as a time of year thing then december methinks is to late,start of spring would be the time.

it will be worth more in summer due to obvious reasons but more to the point wtf? if its got 4 wheels its boring/dull/intheway/gay. if you can wait till summer to sell it then do you really need to?

yeah i used to be into cars in a big way. my ex girlfriend and i had a couple of worked jappa's but then i discovered the dark side and have only bought one car since and its a shitty old celica gtr for ummmm... fuck i dont know why i have it now that ithink about it. (might have to sell it now. lol.) but kudos to you if you can manage life without a bike after you've had the taste of blood. (wish i could, would be alot cheaper.) but pm dilz about it. i think hes looking at getting one for his missus and hes a suzuki fiend so you might be in luck.

yeah, jappas are nice, but they are costly to buy and insure, plus you get no trunk space lol
