    I've also noticed a reduced number of bikes listed on motorcycletrader and autobase - agree that I think ppl are holding onto their petrol savers.

    Don't knock the Manawatu. they're getting electricity down there shortly.

    Just checked Holeshot's website. They have 35 bikes for sale, down from around 110 bikes a few months ago. Looking at the list of what's for sale most seem to be new and they seem to have stopped importing used 250s from Japan. Doesn't look good, and with winter fast approaching it will probably get worse. Could be a few bargains in the next month or so.

    Yep, and only the refridgeryest for them.
    Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

    ... Seen the price of the Yen lately?

    Going to be hard times ahead. New bikes already going up.

    Importers of second hand bikes will be paying more for their new stock...
    Good time to have a motorcycle in your possession is now. It's value will increase eventually.

    May be selling the Goose now I've got the Corvette - somehow think that new toy will take all my time and energy now! Don't know whether to sell the plate with it though...
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    Electricity? Luxury!

    I'm looking forward to the day they actually build roads down here, so I can ride my Harley instead of just polishing it in the shed.

    Mine dissapeared because someone pushed the buy now button. Now I don't have a bike and ride around on a rented 50cc scooter!
    Ride fast or be last.

    But i will see what i can do, i think i have your number from a previous pm, will put the word out tommorow.
    Does your bike have a current wof, rego?
    What price?
    etc
    Would he want mine? It's the one in Coleman's (and on here). High spec.. but high price too
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.
