    That dude is overcompensating for something (or perhaps he just enjoys sexe d'anal - I'm not judging) because there is an entire section about the seat on that bike. Like a paragraph.

    Its also got them new-fangled "Metseler" tyres.

    I am tempted to ask a question as to whether I can get finance.

    Also, what's a "Cargo Transom"?

    ELEVEN GRAND? I mean its cool as shit, and being sold by the most expensive and biggest fuckwit of a dealer in creation. But this must be some sort of record.

    "Fully striped" it's a bloody zebra?

    "Very rear" More anal fixation?

    Some of us can be picky, and I'm guilty, but if whoever writes the ads isn't great at England as she is writ, somebody else should proof read the ads prior to posting.

    On an unrelated matter I find it mildly intriguing that HenryDC, who lives in Christchurch, has such pronounced antipathy to an Auckland dealer.

    It's bred into us. As my old man used to quote - when they enlarged the embankment at Lancaster Park in the 1950's they dug up a one eyed skull - Canterbury Man. We're proud of it too...

    cargo transom - Brings to mind the back end of a RoRo ship - bloody big hatch. Otherwise a window above a door you can pass goods through....

    the bike in question is a '04 cbr600rr, about 34k on it. reg on hold till next month. Im sure it will fly through a WOF. Isnt rough, but not mint either.
    Has a full exhaust system on it, an HRC ecu, aftermarket adjustable pegs, longer bars and some other bits like wavy rotors etc.
    Has spares, including all the stock stuff, full exhaust, rotors, pegs, bars, ecu and a bunch of other bits, and about 3 sets pf spare fairings (one fibreglass race set almost complete, another road set modified for track duty, and another road set thats been sanded back) tyres less than 1000k on them.

    fucked if I know what its worth?
    I reckon its three and a half grand. But I'm a bit stingey on bikes set up for track use.

    Well even something as simple as finding pistons involved having them made, clutch plates no longer available, think it was the same with the plain mains bearings

    But good luck selling that scrap.

    He was going to do it up with his son, but that' not going to happen. . . Because the son said -"what's that turd old man?"

    Followed by, oh look! No chance of buying any spare parts.
