Finally are in the new house thats custom built for my needs in the wheelchair. We also have all of our belongings out of storage and have finally emptied all of the boxes and reminded ourself of all the stuff that we own. I do have all these items on tardme, but without the ability to contact and try anything on, its a waste of time. In fact I got myself offically warned for suggesting that everyone should try on 2nd hand riding gear before they buy. They are so paranoid that everyone is going to sell outside of tardme that as soon as someone mentions or posts contact details, all is in the shyte! So thats why Im here, to say a big "stuff you trademe" and try to sell everything outside of tardme. Ive also been gone from here for too long, so I'll have to get back into the habit of regularly dropping in with my 10 cents worth. For all of you that dont know me, I crashed my MX bike and broke my back and severed my spinal cord. Im now a paraplegic in a wheelchair, but Ive found a new substitute to give me a sense of speed, but without knocking myself about as anything like that now really hurts. This thread will most likely have new items added the pile of motorcycle related stuff shrinks. So keep an eye on it as there could be something you like. Everything can be couriered to anywhere in NZ. That will be at your cost, but I get almost half price throught Fastway. SO WHAT HAVE I GOT FOR SALE YOU PROBABLY SAYING? Spidi Enduro/Motard set. XXL.
As new, only worn once and never seen the ground. This is a track set with all the reinforcing in the required areas. Jacket has a removable thermal lining and a venting system throughout the jacket which is used by opening zips. Perfect for the hot summer days, but still providing excellent protection should a mishap occur. Reserve is less than half of what this cost me new.

New Shark crash helmet. Awesome graphics, fully vented and quick release clip instead of D rings. Comes with all documentation, Shark lined helmet bag with pull strings, tinted visor on the helmet as well as a clear visor in a plastic cover. Only been out of its bag to swap visors and take picture, which does not really do it justice. I had a Shoei XR1000 Diabolic 2 and I like the look of this one by far. This is one of the better helmets made by Shark.

As new, comes with 3M thermal removable lining. Reinforced in all the important places. Quality motorcycle jacket, unlike much of whats sold on trademe. This was my personal jacket, well looked after, never mistreaded and very comfortable to wear. Im 6'2" and was 106kg and this fitted well.

Off the top of my head Ive also got 2 Titan disc brake locks, 3 motorcycle covers for up to 750cc, One brand new pair of Draggin Jeans in cammo green. They are the biggest pair available before needing a custom size made up.
Like I said, there might be other things added. If your wanting more details or pictures please PM me. If your wanting to try something on thats fine, just PM me and we can make a time that suits everyone. Ive probably got some bits and pieces thats not worth much to sell hidden away that Ive not considered, so that sort of thing Im more likely to give away. So hopefully this stuff can find a new owner and be used the way that it needs to be. Im wanting to get rid of it to give me more room in the garage and some $$$ for my RC gear.
Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
Cheers. Ive got a Mitsi Airtrek turbo that I get around in, but it sounds like I might be getting something better suited for my needs after it was decided that the Airtrek caused more problems than did good. Hopefully Im going to get something way way better, but Im not going to drop the ball while Ive not been told by the horses mouth. Im also right into remote control cars. I had a go at a buggy with full hand controls, which was great. But being me I went around the track the first time slowly to make sure it was OK. The next 2 times I went full tit and really had the poor buggy flying, literally at times. My passenger was rather white and confused to what had just happened when we eventually stopped. I was really keen on getting one until I woke up the next day. I was so sore and stiff that I was buggered for about the next 3 days. I at times have trouble with pain, which is an ongoing thing, so really dont need anymore. So the ride in buggy with hand controls was poohooed and I was looking at RC toys. After some wheeling and dealing Ive ended up with several, but the biggest is the 1/5th scale HPI 5T. Its got a 26cc 2-stroke engine and Ive been slowly hotting it up, just so it'll go faster. They reckon it'll go about 80kph, but Im fairly sure mine might go a little bit faster. Also have a smaller fleet: a drift car, which is actually alot of fun and requires a fair bit of skill, a racing buggy, a brushless system buggy that can go much faster than the 5T, a high preformance electric dual motor ATV which came with a rider and a couple of older ones that are apparently now collectable. Apparently its not just old motorcycles that are worth money these days. Ive also been told that I should get back into restoring old motorcycles by she who must be obeyed. Im just holding back from that at the moment as having no balance can make the mechanical side of working on something quite difficult. But Ive not ruled out the idea at all.

Hey Sandra, hows things going? We are now in the new pad and there is allways a room to crash in should you be this way. You still riding those horses as well as the motosickle? Ive put it all in a huge box and its slowly selling now on trade me. It was not until I put the advert on here that interest started to increase. Oh and everyone, if things are sold here and not tardme, we can take 10 bucks off the price as that and a little more tends to be nicked by tardme, the greedy priXs
The first two pictures are a 5T, mine being in black of course. The 3rd is the monster ATV and Im not quite sure where the 4th came from, but its quite good and no it does not involve nudity so I didnt censor it...

Good to see you have one idiot question on the helmet,ffs you give the sizing,why do we get stoopid questions.
Bit like asking will my head fit in it from an HJC model size L eh?Bloody hell as you say try is good,otherwise if it don't fit you go through the hassle of refunds etc with trade me.
Can see their reasoning from money point of view,we found a fridge on t/me for friend,we looked at it offered a price(was close to closing time)and told them to tell trade me it had lost gas or similar,then they have no need to pay fees,the clowns used a friends computer to buy now,and had to pay fees idiots.
Last of the motorcycle gear/stuff is for sale.
