    Thumbs up WANTED: a cheap 0-250cc bike (no more than $650)

    im getting my friend into bikes (atlast), but hes got a tight budget.
    anyone have any bikes (prefer one with rego+wof) than want sub $650 for it?

    im thinking rgv150s, gn150s, and gn250s (off the top of my head)...but anything would be considered

    can nyone help me out?, if it does we will have a new member and one more biker on our roads

    thanks...
    Well what would you do? Run through the streets stark naked at 350 miles per hour with bells on your toes?

    (runs + looks ok) < $650 = 0% chance of success

    Might get an early GN250 for that . But if he only has $650, what's he doing about gear? At least a helmet. And gloves

    If this was a few months down the line,I'de have a bike he could borrow every now and then. But for now I still need to fix it up and get it registerd for the first time in NZ.

    Good luck with the search.

    CB250RS. Can be picked up for $200 if you are lucky

    Also I bought my MZ ETZ250 for $650, but then it cost another $300 to get it re-vinned and get a year's rego

    Hmmm, I'll let you know how I get on with my possible next purchase- a 650 for around $350.
