    Hey guys, bit of a rare oppourtunity.

    I need more space in me garage for another bike and I was wondering if anyone's keen to buy my Honda CM 200? It's probably around 1980's, engine's in mint condition aswell as electrics, just a bit of a surface rust which you don't really need to bother about. Needs a Rego and Wof.

    I'm willing to chuck it to someone for around $600. Willing to go as low as 500..

    Would be perfect for the CC challenge and that's why i'm advertising it on here.
    Woe to You Oh Earth and Sea
    For the Devil sends the beast with wrath
    Because he knows the time is short
    Let him who hath understanding
    Reckon the number of the beast
    For it is a human number
    Its number is six hundred and sixty six.


    FOR SALE: '88 Yamaha FZX 750, low k's and decent condition. Looking for around 4.5K. Drop us a pm, view it any time. Oh, and trades considered for cruisers or naked sporties.

    That's being worked on at the moment, previous owners are being hassled to find the old license plate. If they can't find it it'll need to be re-vinned. If they can, just re-registered.

    Will say to be on the safe side will need to be re-vinned cause I've been hassling these bastards for a couple of months now.

    PM sent .. wish I had another bike to pick up

    But I think I already did my good deed when on the way up, I helped a stranded farmer on his Quad bike (dropped him and the bike off to his place) and gave a biker some more gasgas after he ran out!

    I would SO ride that if it weren't for the fact it wouldn't handle me + gear without snapping like a twig

    I'm sure we can fit a bigger engine in there, lots of space in the frame

    We do have a support vehicle to carry excess gear.

    it was a polite way of saying i'd broke it if i sat on it
    i'm way too tall for something like that anyways, too damn tall for my full sized bike as it is!
    and having the trail car carry gear defeats the purpose for me

    There may soon be a bike available free to a good home that would suit the purpose.
    Needs reg wof and some bits and pieces tidied up.

    If you want to "Win a free bike to fix up for the challenge" you need to pm me with the reason you should get a free bike.

    Should it actually become available as expected this bike will be gifted to the person with the best reason. Judging is final and may relate to suitability of reason and not relate to actual need.

    By any chance, has it been on Pimp My Ride?

    P.S. Any thoughts of burnout or any other entertainment after the whole ride? (A celebration of conquering the CC Challenge?)


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.

    EJ, if you really want to do a stunt show, just say it man!

    I think the ride itself will be one long entertaining episode... cue Benny Hill music, I for one will be trying to rig up a speaker system to blast music of "Ride of the Valkyries" and "The Goodies" from Pippi!

    Hmmm wonder if I can find Pippi Longstocking Theme song also

    I'll be thinking of a themed riding outfit to go also!
