Noooooooooooo

Park it up for a year or two if you need to - those family commitments will eat your money and you'll struggle to get back on a decent bike.

20 years down the line you'll have a midlife, buy an electric Harley and start wearing fashion clothing..........:spanking:

"20 years down the line you'll have a midlife, buy an electric Harley and start wearing fashion "...too true AllanB, too true.

Those TL's sound fantastic, always turns my head...at the very least make a recording of it and have it as your cellphone ring.

I really do need to win lotto, to buy a really big garage, carpet it, heat it and fill it with beautiful bikes, mind you I'd probably have no use for a house then ay

Nice looking bike man. :rockon:

Dont do it, Dude

Just push it to the back of the garage and cover it for now

In a couple of years the rugrats legs will be long enough to reach pillion pegs

And you'll have a whole new activity you can share.

Been there, done that

The way you ride - it would be cheaper to keep the wife and kids..... won't cost you $25 every 120km...... :rofl: :rofl:

hmmmm, Trademe has a very similar looking bike to this one, location and background etc but the ad claims the bike has 42k not the 58k as stated here...Maybe there are two identical TL's in Orewa.

Must admit tho I'm becoming increasingly tempted by a TL as the 'older' style sports bikes seem to fit me rather than than the new buttplug bikes

Hi Bytor,

No, it's the same bike. 42K is the correct mileage. I put the bike away as it was only getting used occasionally and the first ride out on it with a buddy in tow and we both got knicked for speeding, the outcome was a month ban and $500 fine, that was when it got put up for sale on trademe. Figured no point owning a bike that should be ridden quickly, if you get fined and banned for exceeding 120K's. However, took it out for a run yesterday, boy did it feel good. I will try and amend the ad though, thanks for bringing it to my attention.
