well those around at the time will remember i was coming back from lunch to HART the day i got my license and low sided under breaks on gravel.

managed to scratch up and crack the right and front fairings.
replaced em with new plastic and decided to go custom on th respray.
no structural damage.
only a busted brake lever which was replaced.
There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

I'll say - there called z900's, and they will still be running in 30 years time - long after heaps of 80's and 90's 2-bob shitboxes have died a miserable death........

$5k to me is abit over the top with the price


So Diesel's Price would also be to much, seeing that it is 2 yrs older. :wink:

Sportsbike 250's reach about 5k for the lowest price and then stay there....

Tis a fact of life.... Most of them are around the low to mid 90's ...

Have a look around and you will notice the same applies to YZF 250's CBR 250's etc etc....

Anything newer than 1995 and all of a sudden they go up to 7k or more...

Ridiculous, unfortunate, and stupid I know.... but thats Australia for you....
The world is round. It has no point.

$5K is pretty standard price.

but remember they are all the same.
the kms tell u more than years.

it comes down mainly to the overall look of the bike IMO.

for example.
mine has a fresh paint job, but a couple of scrathes on the can and back of the mirror (which you can't see unless u closely inspect it)

the black one looks like it has been crashed given the lack of stickers, but may not have any other marks on it (though i doubt it)

go with your gut.
its your new bike/baby (depending on how paternal you are :D).
