    XS250 needs towing to a wreckers/squiggles

    This is the last topic in the chapter of the XS, and then it should be gone.

    Anyways, heres what I would like to do, if theres someone helpful who could please co-operate.

    My sister recently won a scooter, which is electric (Charges for 8 hours, goes for 2, max speed of like 45kph. Weird, but she won it for free, so :P), and it needs to be towed. Not sure where from, but its not on the north shore, rather its across the bridge somewhere. Can find out if you want.

    So it'd be nice if someone could please help us tow that back to my house on a trailer, and after, tow my XS250 to a wreckers and sell it, or to squiggles if he has room and wants to pull it apart and see whats wrong with the engine.

    We can pay for the gas, or more my sister can.

    Lastly, which wreckers you reckon I should take it to? Everything but the engine is fine, though the battery is dead

    Try Atomic or Action wreckers. They're both on Barry's point rd.

    i'll be on my way as soon as jafa gets here - traffic is going to suck balls trying to drive the '12 metre turning circle and no air con' ute with 'just narrow enough to hide behind the ute invisible to driver' trailer around the city hunting for some obscure scooter shop


    i have a semi-professional interest in riding this electric scooter too
