    Good pics, clear info. Really good that you listened to all the advice given. I wish all people would go to the effort.
    I don't think you'll have any problems getting what you want for it. Even I was tempted to oput a bid on it... and i hate GNs
    Buy it.. the GN. You owe it to yourself to overcome your hate. Buy it then sell it and make a profit and retain that good feeling.

    One thing I notice when I ride the bike is that there are a number of cylinders missing. A bike really does need bigger capacity.

    Cheers.

    there's nothing wrong with a single cylinder (my KTM always has me grinning ear to ear ) but yeah, double the capacity at least

    Thanks everyone for your guidance. (or mis-guidance, I'm never sure with you lot) lol.

    I'm a lot less nervous about the $1 thing now that it's at $905. And the lead bidder is in Oz. I had that on another auction and the person actually picked up from me so at this point I'm thinking they're moving to Aucks or are buying for a friend.

    Thanks for the help and we'll see how it goes.

    I always cover the number plate when selling a bike. I just don't want anyone turning up having done a search at the post office. But then I'm happy to have people come through and inspect.

    In that case at least I've seen them and have phone numbers for them. So what do you do cover the palte or not and hand out the number or not if asked?

    And yes it's a GN250 so does it matter...

    Well it's usually just wanted for Carjam.co.nz

    To check that the bike does actually have a current WOF and REG like you say.

    That it hasn't done a million km's and had the speedo wound back 998,000 km's

    Pretty harmless stuff really

    Relax Officer Pig, It was just a wheelie

    Yup,
    All falls apart (for the asker) when the bike isn't vinned in the country yet though....
    Obviously not the case here... but you know

    Anyhow, looks like the GN Auction is a success.

    It's going okay. Success would be a sale at $3,000. Or is that wild success. It'll be interesting to see where it gets to.

    Any guesses on the final bid amount?
