Can certainly take photos when not riding. Which bike/number were you last weekend? I'm itching to buy a bike right now. Can't wait till next meeting.

me #9 and 43 in f5
also #14 and when I beg #72 and #34 all gp125's except #43 rg50
all faster than an FXR but the FXR just has the drive out of corners
also I cant ride (I blame it on the broken bones)

the fxr is the way to go (specialy if you are just starting or learning)
but you do need to go over any bike you buy and sort it (you need to check everything )

I looked through all the photos from Sunday (2000+) and couldn't find numbers 9 or 43?

Thanks. I've made contact to have a look at 2 of these over the weekend. The ChCh bike costs more but it is 2003 and with very low mileage - may still be worth it. Zac's bike details?

i agree with others Dannien Toman, $2800 for a fxr is to much, especially when it will cost more to get it here. I got 2 wrecks, one for $200 & one for $500 &built one bike standard out of the 2, & was running in top 10 in Bgrade at the weekend first time out

thats because I was the ugly guy helping John with the flags
rode both bikes in the morning practice #43 wasn't running right
and was to scared to go out in B grade

didn't want another ride to hospital

#9 is an rs framed gp125 much like #34 but black and silver no number board on the frount

I agree $2800 is too much but that was just the asking price. He has already offered it for $2500. You did well with the 2 wrecks but there aren't that many around at the momment. Which bike number were you on Sunday? I have just test ridden one at an asking price of $2100. It has quite a bit of surface rust and corrision on the engine casings. Goes well. Needs new chain & sprockets. Probably worth $1800 or less. I hope to check out another tomorrow - waiting for reply from the seller.

This is the bike that I had a test ride on (thanks Grant) on the practice day.

That's when I decided that I needed one.

Nice bikes. These look like RD250 wheels?

I'd certainly like to try a couple of laps on a practice day. I'm very likely to have my own FXR150 by then.
