    Looks like a good one too. Low kms - nice pipe, clean. Lot of bike for the $


    Reckon if it was marketed as a HONDA it would be worth even more as we all know Hondas are superior to Suzukis.

    This guy sounds like a total dickhead.

    I'm fine with him putting on 2004 fairings on a 1999 bike... partially only with everything else other than front fairings and dashboard being original.

    But...
    1. Cracked plastic/fairings held by duct tape.
    2. Broken choke - and states this isn't a problem.
    3. Whiney 2nd gear - blames this on Suzuki.
    4. Get this "No test rides, no exceptions"
    5. However! "Sold in "as is" condition. I represent my items honestly to the best of my ability, but they are second-hand items and I don't know everything."

    You can't test ride a bike that has cracked fairings, broken choke, questionable transmission, and the seller is not holding any responsibility of any of the above once your money is in his pocket.

    Get fucked mate I'm good you can keep your shitty bike

    Still I am being picky - but for $24k would you not be?

    Pipes must have been painted or coated after welding as the completed images hide all the welds.

    RZ500; Yeah they've been HPC coated, probably against the advice of his tuner. 130 is fairly extreme work required, why would you risk not dyno tuning it?

    Oh OK I'll have it

    I've got a saved search for one of these, but this guy is out of his mind with his price.

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=1009274434

    They're USD$134 from the States, plus shipping, or about $250 from a dealer.

    edit: Yeah he's crazy, also selling this:
