    A CBR for that much??? My other ZXR must be worth 10k then! Good on the seller if he gets it though!

    Nah Mate !

    That stunned me so much that I couldn't resist sticking my dirty nose in there. So went online to the highest bidder's auction and asked him questions to make sure he was sane.

    He's already bought the bike apparently for half the price and has just placed a high bid to make sure he wins it for the feedback, that's all.

    Got you excited there for a while aye being a 250 owner lol..

    Peace out

    Well that makes more sense...even 3.5k for it is a helluva lot tho...or at least that is my opinion.

    Auction was withdrawn by seller. Winning bid also had a winning bid of $3000. I wouls say he got offered a cash buy by the winner of substantially less, but the winner also bid $7000 to prevent the embarressment of the bike being won by someone else ect ect...

    What would you guys do without me?

    Read the post a few above that says the guy bought it for half that price and then won the auction through the high bid to ensure feedback could be placed, or we could listen to you repeat what has already been said!

    For a sniper your vision is poo!

    You learn a bit on the 250's though.
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    i have said it before and i will say it again if the restriction dropped to 150cc you wouldnt be able to give a 250 away ..........you can get the same bike in a 400 for a 1/3 less
