This thing is immaculate - anybody who knows me, knows my bikes are always pristine, fastidiously maintained & presented at all times. Sadly, its time to move this puppy on for a replacement stead.

The price is bargain basement - don't call to haggle, it is what it is. Cheapest one around. Never commuted - always been used on the open roads. October 04 model.

PM me for further details.

Cheers

Finally moving to something more your pace eh Mal? Like a Kia Pregio?

Thought: why haven't Kia named a model Ora, or Kaha. Brooo, they'd sell well in NZ...

And yet somehow that still seems like an understatement! I'd eat off your bike before I'd eat off any of the plates in our house!

Good luck with the sale Mal, you don't wanna buy a 2001 Holden Acclaim with the money do ya? Do you a good deal?...C'MON!

Ciao

And their salvage vehicle, the Kia Kaha Tower?

Gidday mate, got the list down to 3 - one of which, dare I say it, is a Suzuki...........but I am struggling to come to terms with the idea........Honda need to produce a Busa Beater.

Nah mate, Pregio, too much power - trying the Picanto for size - they have my colours

Only one of my considerations is a Sports/Tourer - the other 2 remain full sports but not of the Suzuki kind.

Shit Mal, just saw the price, that is a bargain!

Heh...heh.....Look at me, I'm a converted man.

Just did the usual run last saturday and it was enjoyable albeit 20k slower than SP1 on the corners.
About 60-70 faster on the straits though..........

maybe if I just lean it a bit more............

I have another accomplice who is a converted man also - swears by the conversion (full sports to sports tourer that is - K5 to Busa). He reckons there is not too much compromise on the cornering which is interesting cos I saw him corner the K5...........

Really keen to see if 2007 sees a complete revamp tho.

Much thinking to do...........
