    wow, well i sold a 97 gsx600f in the uk for 1000 GBP before i left there 4 years ago, like 2,500 nzd. that was a good price for it there. used bikes here are VERY expensive. good news for the sellers, but bad for buyers.

    And yeah, this guy is dreaming. the bike is only worth top book price if it is immaculate, all polished shiny, full history all warranted n rego. even then , its probably only a third of what hes asking for it........10 yr old r1 and fireblades go for around 1500 - 2000quid in UK, like 3-4 K NZD max.

    i wish id brought my bike with me just to sell it here!

    ah well

    Trademe has caused a rise in everything second hand - as you say, good for the sellers. But try to get a bargain on anything from trademe these days and you have half a dozen bidders who have no idea of the true value going at it hammer and tongs. Example: I was looking at a small hobby compressor. They seemed to be going for $150 - $180 on TM - you can buy the same as Supercheap for the same price.

    Is it April 1st already?
    Perhaps Bryce should have started this at $10,000 then. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Mo...-297135859.htm

    I've got a few things nurudin will no doubt be keen on...
    There's one (or two) born every minute, eh?
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    That is a flyweight compared to mine. There is always a way to lose a few kgs on the 1000 and have it look good.
    Go on. You know you want it.

    Being into Yankee cages I pay attention to their prices - and there's a shit-load of dreamers out there, I guess that's why one year later the ad is still running. (Full of words like 'awsome' 'sweet' 'looks great' 'not many around in this condition' 'make great project' 'would not take much to finish' (pfft!)

    That is my bid, Nurudin is my trade me name and my real name, everyone call me Din. Anyone dare to outbid me , to found what reserve this clown set it at , at least we know is 15% from reserve price ?

    Here's a good one too. What's the bet the missus has said "Sell that bike" and he's gone "No worries"

    Hey, it comes with a paddock stand - seems a fair price...
