    Did I hear someone whinge about the price of 250s?

    Yeah yeah I know we've moaned about it in the past and it has been discussed before, like tyres, insurance and any other issue in the world.

    KB just seems to be the answer of pretty much everything in life eh ? NOT !

    0oh well back to the topic :

    http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/List...826&key=267237

    For those who have missed out in the past. What have you got to say about this? Think someone will come along and buy it at that price or they will eventually drop the price??

    I have to say, though, it's in marvellous nick. I think there's a chance somebody with more money than sense would buy it.

    You can buy a bigger engine bike for less, and the money you save easily pays for any fines you might get if you get pulled over (just dont speed and that won't be a problem!). And you'd have some money left over to go to Mickey D's.

    If that sells for that price, I'll put my RS250 on for $15k.

    It'd be more of a bargain.
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.

    I think Dyers says it all. Its a very tidy an hot looking bike, but a very steep price.
    "I came into this game for the action, the excitement... go anywhere, travel light,... get in, get out,... wherever there's trouble, a man alone... Now they got the whole country sectioned off; you can't make a move without a form."

    Paved roads are just another example of wasted tax payer dollars.

    Does look mint but likely that its done 114000km not the 14000km and had a paint job and clean up. Who would know?

    That is some serious crazy money for a 16 year old bike.

    Holy fuck, that's just stupid money for a 250. The NZ dollar is stronger than it's ever been... yet 250s are more expensive than they've ever been... despite being older than they've ever been. What a crock of shit. Anyone thinking of spending $8495 for a 16 year old 250cc, go and see Skelstar. You'll get yourself a two year old 900cc, extremely well looked after and sexified to boot, for a grand less. Edit: Linky...

    I hope noone justifies that seller's asking price buy actually buying that bike. What a ripoff. Can't have cost him a third of that to buy and import it.
    Soapbox house of cards and glass, so don't go tossing your stones around.
    You musta been.... high. You musta been...
