    Look at this potatoheaded fuck

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...x?id=982468575

    Check out the Q&A section of this. I can't believe this guy.

    My mate was going to buy this and get me to either swap in the engine from his running DR350 or fix up the current engine, then the guy de-registers the bike for no good reason! Effectively halving the value of the bike. What a fuckhead.

    /Rant.

    I've been watching that too. Tragic.

    Does your mate want a silly price for his motor? I have a 98 here with everything but one (not road registered though =( )

    I don't think he'd part with it, considering it's in a fully operational bike at the moment

    Ahh, my eyes glazed over that part. Still kicking myself for not grabbing the motor in QT a few months back for a buck a CC.

    Not as bad of a mistake as de-registering a bike for the sake of $100 bucks, but still

    Really that much interest in a crappy dr350?
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    That was when the bidding was at $365 with the reserve met, looked like quite few folk had no intention of bidding and the rest got their panties in a twist because the 'seller was robbing them of a bargain.

    If you fix it yourself it would probably be a good little runabout for $1500 and you would know exactly what you had.

    Have all the parts and more needed to sort it here. Priced up getting it down and set 5 alarms on my phone to catch the end of the auction Waste of my fuckin time in the end, but you're never guaranteed to win an auction anyway I guess.

    It went for more than I thought it would for parts. Thought it would peak at $500.

    wonder if the winning bidder saw the comments that its de regd, or just read in the ad text that it was still legal?
