    It looks like something nodrog would try to save.
    I went & looked at it in Tauranga ten years ago. It was exactly like it is now & some guys had been towing it up the paddocks with the quad bike & freewheeling down the hills on it.
    I thought I was on to something until I saw it.

    Trade that Triumph Thruxton lemon in on a Garner Norton?

    That might be more laughs than a barrel of Hondas...

    Ashley from Napier clearly disagrees with you. (For what it worth I don't)

    Found this by accident, which is ironic as it looks likes its the result of a few. True to the style but he could learn sumfing from us kiwis about pricing such a work.

    So six and a half. These guys just don't seem to understand that stock bikes are the ones that actually sell for decent money.

    Thought Ispotted a GSX250 tank. A certain kind of ugly.

    Ahh, spring. The listings are cluttered up with all the usual suspects and several familiar faces have been relisted again for the new season.
    But blow me down the H2 seems to have disappeared. Must have got slack with the renewal, but it must have been the oldest listing of any object on Trade me.

    Looks like an early GSX 'E' tank, probably about the same age as the rest of the bike, at least the kwaka badges fit reasonably well. He's right about the primary chain rattle at idle, they all seem to do that.

    I'd rather have it stock, but it probably had to many rusty chrome bits to make it viable. Certainly added a fair bit of steel with the seat support gussets, wonder if it has a cert for that.....

    All Irremember is riding mine home. I bought it to replace my RD350 (with 250 stickers) as I got too scared to take it to sit my provisional. And it was oiling rh plug.

    But the ride home was seriously underwhelming. The constant silting up of carbs from dreaded rusting Suzuki tank was another inconvenience.

    Looked at a pair of E's a couple of weekends ago, can't remember if they were 250's or 400's, was very tempted at $450 for the pair partly in bits but with both rego's on hold.

    Need a bigger garage....
