GL1000 on trade me

Any kiwibikers bidding on this? Someones gonna get a bargain, $3K for a classic mile muncher that could take two people and their luggage around NZ is a bargain. Not everyones cuppa tea but I like the look of this one.

im afraid i aint bidding on it....but its on my watchlist...my trademe nic is beany1970

Yeah, I've been watching that one too. Those old skool Wings are the bling, they have that certain something the new ones are missing.

**Bren** · 19th August 2007, 19:40

they certainly have the bling allright..all class with a huge arse!

Yeah I like it more than the new plastic supertankers that they are now, would have been a great bike for a tourist you probably couldn't hire a tourer for six weeks that size for that price. I was thinking of getting it and sending it to OZ for a tour, shipping is a bit more than I thought it would be. Least he got a fair price in the end.

Jonbouy, I was also keen as an ex GL1000, GL1500 owner - I thought you were gonna bid, what happened Mate?

The seller seems a bit of a twat, though.

I've got sympathy for the seller, but he's not making any friends there.
