Who wants a new bike imported from US cheap?

[barty5]

Ok so looking at heading back to NZ around July here's the deal I have a car i'm bringing back (would love to bring back bike but finances won't allow )
But you could with the car and our personal stuff this will require a 40ft container there will be around 10ft of this container left empty.
So if you'd like a new bike way cheaper than they are in NZ and can find a shop online in Connecticut (east Coast ) there are quite a few as long as you pay for the bike and taxes etc related once back in NZ ( might be some small other fees at this end need to be looked into ) for and extra few $250US you can help fill the container will be the cheapest shipping as its normally 800-$1000 to ship a bike.

If your keen look into it all and let me know in saying that if there is anything else anyone would like to buy and can get shipped to my place it can also be put in container just let us know what it is etc see what we can work out.

what do you use for second hand stuff around you, craiglist? or ebay, i would like a KX500 but would have to see if there are any around you, being east coast they were not as popular as in the desert states,

seen a few pop up on craigslist that what I normally use Ebay is good once you have the bike / car for bits as you said normally on the east coast
there are a couple on there at the moment little bit of a drive but something could be sorted im sure

98 ish on to the last of them, not really looking but if the right one came up at the right price, want one with the 46mm forks on, will have to look when they changed,

Pretty sure 97 was the new fork, I bought one new 8800 retail in NZ.

i think your right, as they came out on the 125/250 in 96, and the 500 a year later, it was really the last upgrade the 500 got other than graphics,

Get one pre 89 so you can go VMXing!

have thought about it, but its not really my era, i had only just got onto 80's by 1989, if they started a pre 99 class then maybe, it will get there one day,

tracks do look cool tho, and dont seem to get cut up,
