    the gsxr600k3 corona edition in nz

    Okay, i know i was thourghly dissapointed a little while ago to find out that my 2003 gsx600r corona edition is not a rare bike and its been f**king me off every since that the salesman lied to me and i was sucked in.
    but, can someone tell me how many there actually are throughout nz?

    I can't give you an accurate number, but yours was the only one left in New Zealand never to have been crashed. Pity about that, would've be worth lots......

    LOL. Well i know of at least 8 not inculding you, there was a massive shipment from Canada of Corona bikes they sold them off at something crazy cheap for a new 600, $13K or something like that. And then the amount that ended up as race bikes as well!

    What you want is a 99 SRAD Corona like mine
    I think its rare in NZ. Mines an Aussie import and I've never seen another....

    Apparently my mate who got one said that they brough in about 23 or so of them...
    Lump lingered last in line for brains,
    And the ones she got were sort of rotten and insane...
