Just wanted to be sure what the take off time was.

Is it later at 11 now cos of winter? Was 10 before wasn't it?

Usually 10.30 am but forecast for Sunday is showers clearing so went a little bit later so can get a better handle on the weather. And sleep a little longer after getting up to watch the CHIEFS in action tonight

We only have peasant tv so will only get the result on the internet tomorrow morning.

I was out visiting the bike shops today - was a bit nippy I must admit. But saw many bikes I would like. Damn it!

Hello everyone, just letting you all know, im probably selling my bike, due to many things, mainly police collage coming up and the need of more space for transport, so if anyone wants or knows someone looking to buy, my Blue Ninja 250 is up for grabs.
PS- Im keeping all my gear as i know ill be due for a bike once im out of collage!!

on them. We got it off trademe from nexa auckland ltd from what I understand they sell various crap from vacuums to bikes.(as it was a fight to get the manual) Its lucky if it gets to 100k and isnt much faster downhill lol. It looks kinda like a cbf. I guess its ok for a learners bike, gotta admit though the Hyosung was better.

looks like you did get lost. Don't know how you managed that from Hams to Raglan. Jamal caught up with us and Leyton thought it was still Saturday???

Good wee ride 6-7 of us counting Mr Dargor MIA and Jamal.

**Dargor** · 2nd June 2009, 18:47

**wysper** · 2nd June 2009, 18:58

so ive been told

i think it was $2300
good old trademe, the sellers reckon(originally) the retail price is $3995(then dropped to $3495) im not sure if they have any listed...

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-198904628.htm

well ok I looked and they do, and what do ya know they have dropped the price coz it seems they are trying to get rid of them lol. They sold too many via $1 reserve id say and now people know they arent the best for the price when you could get a fxr for around the same or a bit cheaper. And they have tried to make it look good. Id NEVER deal with these people again, and id be lucky to get a decent trade at a proper dealer.
