Sorry for the rant.
Back to trying to bring you guys a cheaper bike.
Something that could be worth doing
Sign up with trademe and put bikes that are of interest on your watchlist.
Over the next few months you will get an idea of how quickly bikes sell.
As someone else has said you will probably find not a lot of selling actually goes on.
Even bargains can sit there for months and months and months.
Another point is customs
If you leave the bike here when you return to the states, sold or unsold, there will be a 15% gst (sales tax) +customs charges. More info here [url]http://www.customs.govt.nz[/url
good luck
