So are you going to buy it or are you just wasting your own time for no good reason?

Its one of a few I am considering, although have heard that Triumph are releasing a Sprint GT so that too is being considered seriously.

When I shop I always like to do shit loads of research and never rush into anything and always make sure there is a fall back plan in place if something turns to shit...

Put simply --If you buy a vehicle at auction then the ONLY thing the trader has to legally provide is clear title and the goods must be as described in the auction at time of purchase-so the bike can't be a 1300 1999 if advertised as a 1500 2004 for example. --Thats it FINI
There are amendments going through the works currently basicly aimed fair and square at Turners auctions who import a huge number of their own vehicles and auction them off at lower prices than dealers--because currently there is NO comeback on auction soldf vehicles--CGA doesn't apply-except as covered above .
There are also "vehicle tender" centers who will find themselves in the spotlight. These are dealers who get around the CGA by having you "tender" an offer on a vehicle and if the "tender 'is accepted you own the car/bike. Hmm --tender/negotiating with the dealer--isn't it the same thing? --yep sure is but its a loophole that means--again NO comeback.
Im a little concerned though that the baby doesn't get tossed out with the bathwater. GENUINE $1.00 reserve auctions are a WIN/WIN provided everybody is honest throughout the process,--I sell a LOT of vehicles I'm not sure enough about to sell on the yard because of the CGA and the likes of Turners charge EVERYBODY a fair bit of money for using them.
So OP --DON'T be suprised if you get a "Yea so what" reply from Con Com
-Incidently I'm blacklisted by that trader due to asking him (unthinkingly on my part) if it was the same bike I saw in Turners Damaged Vehicle Auction. --It was the same bike Gsxr600 2006 deregistered. I wanted it as a race bikie and missed out on it to him.I'd done reserch and knew the damage was cosmetic I was happy to buy the bike from him .

And OP just so you know Im a car/bike dealer been in the trade over 10 years so Im not talking s###. I deal in this stuff 12 hours a day 7 days a week

It's acar dealer - probably trade it in.

Looks like a nice ride and for $8k or so a good buy!

What I find weird about sales like this - needs a new battery - he'd get dealer pricing so for maybe $100 it would be good to go. FFS stick a battery in it!

Dude he's a trade me trader. sells anything on auction. He buys em --does NOTHING and puts em on trade me for a profit.
FACT --the bike came from Turners dva or direct from an insurance tender.--I can probably find the turners lot number.
