BMW S100RR trackbikes available

[White trash]

Expression of annoyance at stupidity equals crybaby..........oh well, if that's how it works in your head......

You don't even have the right bike either, although you could buy the one you refer to if you want, still have it.Goes rather well, may have to ride it myself.

Just because they didn't see you doesn't mean it didn't happen either.

Define your version of tough.

Fuck my brown goat! How many GSXR race bikes does a man need? You greedy cunt

I actually do know someone in the market for a race bike and would love a GSXR, I'll send him the details.

[Fast Eddie]

whoah, easy! I dont think it was meant seriously. well, maybe.

when I stacked my R1 at the end of levels straight, the FIRST thing I did was pull out my phone and take photos of how far me and the bike tumbled and the damage!

lol that you had your phone on you on the track?.. and its harder to do that when the ambulance is picking you up off the track.. I saw the 2 bikes getting towed in after the off at 'puna... think it was a bit more of a mans crash both write offs and looked proper fooked!

[BMWST?]

Yep, another thing to take into consideration. I going to go ahead and factor it in, just to play things on the safe side.

also consider maf fees etc.They will prolly be quite keen to look at these quite carefully

No worries,

Gimmie a shout if you do turn your 675 into a track bike, there a a few things worth knowing about 675's as a race bike, could save you some grief.

Cheers for that, I was gonna seek some advice on how and what needs to be modified for it, I know every bike has their little quirks.

maf fees? Not familiar with those, can you elaborate?

Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries.

They're the ones who make sure goods from overseas don't bring undesirable critters and/or diseases to screw our delicate eco-system. I got charged a fee for decontaminating the 2nd hand exhaust I just bought on ebay.

Bare in mind too, that the GST will be levied on everything they can think of, so they will be charging GST on the freight cost of the bikes..... Bastards. For instance, that exhaust I just brought in was under the GST collection threshold... until they factored in the US$70 freight charge.

MAF, wow, great, another hoop to jump through. Might keep in mind that the bikes need to have a good wash (then a good oiling to prevent corrosion during shipping) so as too make sure there is nothing for MAF to find and decon.

And l think I already did my price calcs with GST on top of the shipping costs, but I'll have to double check. If they try and charge me GST on the value of the shipping crates, however, I might start to get a little pissed.

Not so much a hoop, as they'll be spraying them regardless, but just more cost. But having them spotless will surely help.

the gst is calculated last,and so the gst gets added to any extra fees you have to pay,including the customs and maf fees

I was hoping to get the price of the bikes down and get a better overall price, but I keep running into all the incidentals that make up all the difference and then some.


Thanks for the info anyways guys, better to know this now rather than later.

Welcome to the world of private importing.... sometimes it is just easier to go and pay what the shop are asking...
Not having a dig at you at all, it is just the way it rolls sometimes.
Seriously, i hope you do indeed manage to land some of the CSS Beemers, and some punters can have some fun on them in NZ.
The Borader control will do their best I am sure, just sometimes it is what is best for them....

Respect Andy, that was a huge crash and if anyone didnt deserve that, it was you. Really glad you are ok after such a major one.

Hey cheers,

Yeah, the bad luck just keeps on coming!, amazed to have got away with it with minimal injuries, some of the people on the embankment had a view on an angle that made it look like the bike landed on me when it came down and when l didn't move for about 20 secs( so they tell me, no idea!) some of them were expecting another track fatal- gotta wonder at what point do you pull the pin......

But!, alive, mobile and bike in the workshop pulled to bits and well under way with rebuild, might make round 2 yet if customs don't slow down the stuff coming in. Bizzarely, am unable to find a new clutch cable in NZ, none of the dealers have one?

Not having anything to do with your brown goat after you've been there........

Got caught out on a handshake deal selling the 07, had paid for the 09 Triple R bike before being told : can't buy it now, the wife said no, sorry mate.... Tempted to ride it but- what if it got binned or blew up, the wife might make me live outside, she wants the dough back in the household budget.

Reckons she might let me keep some of the dough if it sold to help fix the 09, might be clever trick to make me part with it, actually like it a lot.

I imported a bike last year and the bills just kept on bulding up and building up, still got a bike a whole cheaper then if I got one here though. When I enquired about another import I was told that the rules had or were about to change that makes anything with a fuel tank or engine classed as 'Dangerous Goods' so more charges again. Good luck and before you do anything else call this guy below and ask him. He should shed a lot of light on importing bikes.
Good luck

Yep, thats the game plan. I go through life expecting the worst, that way when it happens, your prepared. If it doesn't happen, your plesantly surprised.
