Hopefully I will be looking and buying one soon. It definitely is the 92 model with 59 HP, looking at the fairings and decals. How does it handle mate?

Just a quick question, those bikes are a hard find, where did you manage to fetch one from? Definitely not from TradeMe or any dealer aye? Plus it looks in nic condition mate. Take care of it eh

Oh yes are the parts hard to source? Can anyone else throw light on this?

Yea i got it from trade me, it was on there for ages as a classified. The whole bikes mint apart from a small dent in the tank so im more than happy. Handles like an absolute dream, i thought my old rg150 handled well but this is in a completly different ball park

0oh yeah now I recall it's the clown who was wanting like 5 grand for it initially for ages and it didn't sell then he dropped the price eh.

But yeah mate good deal on picking it up for that price.

Hope you can fix the dent on the tank eh. Good luck with the bike mate.
