[BigRed2007]

Ok well insurers have said it is uneconomical to repair

I insured it for 3 grand... so if they do give a pay out...

I will need KBERS help me find another bike....

I will keep you guys updated as to what they insurance companies says, and I am with state so lets see what they say....

but atm I have been look at trade me,

I still love cruisers but a naked sports bike is ok....

If anyone knows anyone or dealers that could hook me up with a good deal please pm me , or send me pics of the bike + trade me link etc. I will search all of them...


Thanks

Yoinks! Ah well, least you get to go bike shopping again!

I'm sure you're going to get everyone giving you good advice...so I won't! ...

[BigRed2007]

Well mate, help me out tell me how much they are???

[BigRed2007]

Well the bike was worth 3000 so 3 g is my budget, not much but its something...

This is based on insurance paying out the 3 grand so its still early days yet ... state yeah

lol sports...

down in wanganui.... rather it be in aucks man !! :P

I dont mind sports but naked no fairings lol,

[carbacca]

damn sorry to hear the bike got totalled. twas a nice bike too

not much out there for that price in the 250 category. the only new-ish ones would be the GN250 or SX4 Scorpio. for most others at about $3000 it would be 15-20 years old (bandit250, hornet250, cbr250 the usual) which i dont think you would be too keen on

did you think to apply for an exemption? you would probably get it quite easily; although not sure you actually want more power at this stage...

[BigRed2007]

I might actually apply for an extention but yeah dont really want more power lol,

I have seen a few nice bikes but yeah might need to save up more for a bit....

[rwh]

I take it you've seen this one?

I cant get to napier but its a good bike for the next buyer

Unfortunately just looking at some bikes like Bandits, hornets, any naked sports and looking at any cruisers at a good price

Thanks though,

[MSTRS:Me]

too many dings .... and its in napier...


Thanks though,

You might be being a bit fussy? Doubt you'll find much in the 250 range at that price that isn't 'less than perfect'.
And what's wrong with Napier?

[yungatart]

So you want a 250 cruiser for $3000, with no dings...
Tui, aqnyone?

Not the best idea getting this bike, bigred is only on his learners and this is a 400cc bike, there is a reason why the law tells people on a learners to have a max cc rating of 250.

[BigRed2007]

I am just trying to find a bike with not too many hassles...

And if it means i will have to wait till my bike riding career wil have to go on hold till my finances catch up

Ps: nothing wrong with napier just got no way of going down there or back...
