    So a 5yo bike with low k's, new paint and new bodywork... Crashed and rebuilt anyone?

    When you look at the extras idd say failed midlife crisis or rich owner with more toys than he can use.
    Never going to get that money for it being so close to the price of a new bike.

    "Please NO time wasters or dreamers" Pretty much leaves out the KB community then.
    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Some people have too much money than sense. Why on earth add 23 expensive bling items to a bike and then ride it to the letter box and back a few times? I just can not fathon how a person can own a tidy bike and NOT bother to ride it!

    I can do that sort of mileage in an average month.

    It's like going to an up market brothel, hiring the expensive best looking hooker and forgeting to have sex. Doh!

    They're not motorcyclists in my book so good thing it's being sold. Hopefully to someone who will actually use it and appreciate having a bike.

    Oh yeah, good luck getting half the asking price.

    My guess would also be a track bike. 5Y < 2K sounds to me like that clusters not been in the bike the whole time. Seems like road prep after a hard life from the parts bin.

    The seller forgot to mention that it comes with free chicken strips.


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    Yeah, the whole "it could've been binned/molested/track dayed" kinda applies to any bike.

    Most likely situation is that it's just plain old overpriced to a hilarious extent.
