Awesome bike, I still love it but my motard is better suited to my current needs and I don't ride enough to justify two. This bike needs someone who will really enjoy it!

Extras with it:
Yoshimura TRS Trioval Pipe
DNA Air Filter
Scottoiler
Double bubble screen
Ventura Pack Rack and Grab Rail for 2-up
Techmount for radar detector and hardwired to suit Escort or Bel
Tail tidy

All the essentials are done and nothing more has been modified. It comes with original pipe, screen, rear snow plow and single seat cowl. Also the original blue seats.

It is currently fitted with Sportvue MC2 (http://www.sportvue.com/motorcycles.php) HUD which comes with it if the buyer wishes.


It was very lightly dropped by the first owner, no damage except cracked fairing. He thought it a good excuse to paint it all black. It looks awesome and has a very faint blue fleck which is only really visible in sunlight. All bits exposed to stone chips were 3M taped. The finish is still almost flawless. A headlight mount also cracked and it comes with a brand new headlight unit, I never got around to fitting it as the original is still really solid.

It has been fully serviced, the last was around 700km ago with Oil & Filter done plus new plugs as per owners manual.

This really is a fantastic bike, fairly sedate yet enough torque at low revs, a real rocket if you give it a fist full. This was my first big bike and wasn't too scary coming off my 250 but I haven't yet wished for more power while riding. It's quite comfortable for touring too, I've been to Auckland in a day and done some fairly long days in the south island without a problem.

10k firm, it's a hell of a bike for that money. I bought it off a KBer, will leave it on KB for a week or so and resort to Tardme if it isn't sold. If I've missed something just ask.

No test rides unless I have cash or a bank cheque in the hand. I'd be happy to take it to any bike shop you want if you'd like a mechanical inspection.

I forgot to mention it is fitted with Pilot Powers, the rear is due for replacement, front would do a second rear. Cheers

Cheers man. I'd have to agree, black is always the new black when it comes to sportsbikes:niceone:

It looks mint in "race replica mode" too, remove the pack racks and fit the single seat cowl. Mmmmm:drool:
