    To all bike shops...

    Who is that girl doing the rounds of the bike shops looking for a 600 sports bike? You know, the really attractive one who's just been paid out by her insurance company, so she's a cash buyer.

    Colemans know, because they were friendly and helpful as soon as she walked in the door.

    Haldanes also know because they took the trouble to ask if they could help.

    Sadly Mt Eden Motorcycles, AMPS, Holeshot and Cyclespot didn't make any effort at all - even when she stood by bikes of interest and looked around for a salesman. Actually I'll let Mt Eden off because everytime I go in there they are busy and they have been helpful in the past.

    If any bike shops are genuinely interested in getting sales, perhaps you would be so kind as to get off your butts and come and talk to me when I've made the effort to come in.

    Botany Honda - you'll be getting a visit from me tomorrow, and Hamilton shops will be seeing me either on saturday or monday. Please try to show some interest.

    And Martin @ Motomart (can't shut him up!!)

    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    Yep I will be heading down to Welly very soon. Pete at WMCC already knows what I'm after and is on the lookout for me.

    Mate, she got paid out for one crashed SV650 not a whole fucken fleet.

    Even then, for the money the gixxer 750 is a better buy.

    $18,500 for a jumped up six hundy? even if it is british, what.
