    Mint, learners need fast bikes
    I'm trying to get hold of official 'zuki documents for the SV specs.
    Of course the Hyo isn't on the list, 250cc bikes are not listed because they're automatically eligible, it says so on the blimmin page

    Bah I wouldn't bother with it.

    Hell Brian,
    I have gotten the SV 400 (yess!!!!) approved and have conformation from Graeme.
    So that’s why we are selling it as approved.
    The BOL-DOR is in the process but the math is well with-in the limit so should be no problem.


    It will be such a cool bike to own, do you want me to shoot ya an email after I take it for a ride?

    Thanks,

    Mike T
    Colemans Suzuki


    Iunno who Mike T is, but he seems like a right twat.

    Actually ... All motorcycles with engine capacities of 250cc and under, except for those on the LAMS-prohibited list ... are automatically approved.

    The Hyosung GT250 is NOT on the prohibited list.

    The coleman's guy was asking me why the Hyobag 250 wasn't on the list. I told him the same thing you said basically

    DIdn't seem to bother them much. He tended to gloss over anything that he didn't agree with.

    Mike Taliaferro is the guy I bought my bike off/from..My thoughts on the man are, not great. Even Anne was astounded at the emails and how the the sale went, being a cash buyer and all...but I got the bike I wanted.
    When she bought her bike from there, Daryl was most excellent to deal with (don't think he is there any more) and so was mechanic guy when it came to sorting a replacement gear shift rod on the spot...from another bike in the shop.
    The difference in both deals were poles apart.

    They seem to miss one major thing...

    They say it's approved, and it isn't. Yes, it might be in the future, but it's currently not...

    I've been talking to Mike also, he's not being a knob to me
    I've applied to have both bikes added anyway, just because they're cool. And then people won't have to buy those fucking shithouse Ninja 250 turds.

    Apparently, the batphone that the Coleman's sales reps have to old mr NZTA chap allow them to be assured that something will be LAMS approved.

    They dont seem to give a shit that somebody can still get pegged for riding outside of license conditions between now and May when the list will be allegedly updated. As far as they're concerned, so long as they feel a bike is or is going to become approved at some point in the future, that gives them the ability to market it as "learner approved" now. Nevermind the fact that if you rode it off the lot to your restricted/full test, they'd turn you away.

    Ethical business practices and good customer service seem to take a back seat to profit for them at least. At least I know where not to go next time I'm in the market for a biker

    Ok, wanna lend me the money ? Im sure I can get my self pulled up pretty quick. The cop station is only around the corner.

    This is really sounding retarded. Why dont sales people relise, _everyone_ you talk to, can, and will have an influence on future sales for them. Ok, sometimes its not worth putting up with shit from someone, if you can clearly tell they are not actually interesting in purchasing. But when you have been clearly shown you are 'wrong', atleast have the decency to admit it, and rectify the proplem. The least they could do, is state in the advert "These are not currently LAMs approved but will be added in the next revision." if they beleive so strongly they can dictate what bikes will be added.
