    Will you accept 7,500 for it. and why are you selling after only doing just over 2,000ks on it?

    Nice try. You know 10 is a honest price for a very low km tidy example. Would you provide your own lube with your offer so at least the edge would be taken off it as you shaft him .......

    7,500 what? With recent interest, it's looking likely the trend will soon be in an upward spiral direction. I am in no real hurry.

    The reason I am selling it, is because I want to buy a CB1300 (I really miss the one I had) or a GSX1400 (cheap as) and the $5-6K left over will be put to good use around the house, starting with a boundary fence.

    There is a serious inside leg measurement deficiency that's in need of great attention before someone of his stature can even think about swinging over the Tigers seat height.

    He could always get some knock offs of Gene Simmons boots.

    Have you ever given the Kawasaki ZRX1200R a consideration much better bike than a CB1300 or GSX1400

    Whilst a very nice bike, when they end up for sale they seem to be in very second hand condition, there was available in 'mint' condition few months back, it was owned by my ole' Alistair from the Manawatu at a very good price.

    This will do just fine > http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/moto...1061411323.htm

    I can't say you're making the wrong call... not mine to make. I'd rather have a low mileage cb1300 or gsx1400 or Zrx and 5 k than the triumph.

    There has been the same model CB on TM that I had with similar K's on it as when I traded mine. The Tiger is a great bike, there is no doubting that but I feel that if I could own the bike that I really loved from the past, it is the Honda CB1300.

    Yep, the emotional connection to a particular bike is a highly personal thing - buying (and keeping) a bike involves both head and heart. I tend to keep my bikes for quite a few years but don't think I'll be keeping my GSX-S1000 for anywhere near that long. It's terrific performance-wise, delivers what I currently want from a bike and yet I don't have anywhere near the same attachment to it as my Street Triple or even the Blackbird. Really hard to articulate the reasons but chances are that it will be gone in 1-2 years.

    Good luck in finding a CB1300

    100% accurate assessment of where I am at Geoff. I always knew I had done the wrong thing letting the Honda go. There is an 02' GSX for sale with low K's but I ain't paying $8K + ORC for a bike that is probably worth 5-6K.

    They do lowering plates for these. Cheap easy fix to the height issue.

    IMO - $10k is way too cheap for a bike of that age and Ks. A dealer might give you more to buy it off you
