    Tyre sizes: 110/70-16; 140/70-16

    The front tyre might be obtainable in NZ.....
    But good luck finding a rear.

    I'd give that chinese rip-off copy piece of crap about 6 months before it starts falling apart. The guy selling is so confident of quality his warranty doesn't even last that long.

    Is it being sold privately or through a dealer? I'd be reluctant to buy something untested for that price.

    The Scarver wasn't ugly - although it did polarise people, they either loved it or hated it. The only guy who told me it was "the ugliest thing" he'd ever seen was a short, fat, bearded prick who obviously hadn't looked in the mirror that morning!

    I see the price has dropped significantly. I can't recall what it was, but think it was close to $6000 but now it's $3500.

    That sounds like the beginning of a joke... `The only time a Honda is straight...'
