    Need bike for license test TOMORROW Wednesday (25 Nov) (Welly)

    So my bike took a little lie down and has no RHS indicators or mirror. My restricted test is booked for tomorrow at 12.45 in Kilberne, Wellington. I have 50$ for anyone who can lend me a 250cc or smaller bike to sit my test tomorrow. Preferably I would pick the bike up in town by 11 or so so that I can get used to it before I take the test.
    If anyone can help me out here please give me a call on [no longer needed]. I'm going to call around the bike shops tomorrow morning as well.
    Cheers.

    Yup - you should be able to rent one for the purposes of a test for not much more than $50. A couple of the stores in Auckland do a 250 @ $80 for a couple of hours for that very reason.
    The chances of anything coming from Mars are a million to one, he said.

    Don't ask :-/ I'm sure there will be a post on that in the next few days. Cheers for the support anyway... dunno what you could do to a ZZR to make it 'not quite legal'. (other than remove the indicators and wing mirror via the hard flat surface known as the road).

    If you have no luck with the shops, give me a ring. I've got a pink and purple rumblin' twin I could sort out.

    I passed it ez... I think having a full car lisence makes it dead easy, same test just less wheels to worry about.
    Can't thank Dene enough for his pink and purple monster. I booked it a month ago and was worried I wouldn't be able to sit it. I think I did piss the testing officer off though... took me forever to get my gloves on, still soaking from me washing all the ditch water out of them ><

    he possibly felt sorry for you on a pink and purple monster, and gave it to you.
    well done...

    ride safe.
