It was a stat write off but was an '07 model, had only travelled 7000k and looked ok apart from the forks/instruments/lights. I was going to part it out till I found a bloke selling a frame and forks on GSX1400.org

A coupla months later I'm at this stage-

Then I went to the auctions yesterday, planning to get a CR250R to show my mate his 2010 YZ250F is gay when compared to a smoker.

Fucking online bidders made the CR a silly buy...

So I came home with this-

It's an 08 model with 3000 ks. Apart from a slight tweak to the forks and a scratched up yoshi, it's pretty much untouched.




P.S.- Here's the "1/2"

I've never ridden a 14 till this arvo and I was impressed with the grunt.

I might have to sell a bike or two so I can keep one of these.[:p]

Didn't they say that if it's bought before the law comes in, it's ok? As long as you have receipts?

I remember reading that on here somewhere..

I'm kicking myself that I didn't buy the other 14 at the auctions. Was worth it for the parts and coulda got you a moteur for a good price tooo!

So I sold the black 14 to my brother. After a slight hiccup, he loves it-

And I've fucked around withe the Blue/White one for months, buying footpegs and a sleeve for the Yoshi (Japan) pipe etc.

On tuesday, I bought another one at the auctions-

It's a stat write off (frame damage) but the front end looks straight and I scored the instruments/headlight and a few fittings and bolts for mine.

I reckon they just "look right" without the mirrors and shit sticking out.

Going for a blue slip on monday then hopefully a wovr inspection before april.

[Gitzy]

Such a nice clean bike they are.. So will you be riding this to AFR Large? If so I don't think the Spondon accessory donut will be required ;), that seat looks plenty comfy..

[Large]

I did the blue and green slip on monday. Headed to the RTA on tuesday expecting a 6 week wait for the wovr inspection, and got an appointment on friday (yesterday). It passed with flying colours- it helps to have 4 or 5 receipts from the auction houses. :) $1140 later I'm registerd and good to go.
