New bike?? Do i or don't i??

[mike-s]

met Richard down at his shop, him & his blokes are good value. Squeezed me in for getting a new front tyre with a hour or so before c.o.b. on a saturday and gave a good price on the rubber too.

[Burky]

Thanks guys i think i will need to give Richard at Narrelan a call

$11900 plus on road... thats about $13500 on road I believe..

That sound too cheap

Colette, thanks for the "biased" opinion.
Mick, the blue Z1000 is safe u don't need to worry about that, just have a thing for fairings.
Mitch179, no waiting for the 07, the 06 looks better in my eyes(at the moment anyway).


Will look at insurance this week, before i speak to Richard then find out about finance intrest rates ect. trade in prices. Then table it all together

[Nanna10r]

Good stuff Burky - and when its done, pictures of your new pride and joy would be good

Yes, should find out this week re. my end of year review.
Part 1 has gone well seeing the NAB made 4.3 billion dollars profit .
Part 2 is my own end of year review...which is another story altogether. I went really well, but it seems to be more of a personality thing with the boss (i.e. the more the boss likes you more you get). As a result I'm being compared with guys on the same level as me that suck hard for a living .

Where exactly is Narellan? I really can't be arsed selling the ZZR privately, I just want a trade in and a changeover price . I'm trying to work out how to get me, Richard and the ZZR in the same location .

[red_dave]

Narellen seems halfway between Five Dock and Canberra...

but worth the overnighter.

Just make sure that if they stuff up some how they get caught out, not by dobbing an as such but you know how things happen.

Happened at the office to be because i will not suck up. Then it turned to poo poo , considering the person "does not have the expertise to do the job" will i do it now, if the money "I want is right"

NAB $4.3 billion profit $15000 for a bike is a drop in the ocean

For the Dealers it's petty cash, they spend more on trinkets for the wives and girlfriends (or both), or on their racehorses.

Alas it doesn't filter down to my level, but I (and everyone else at the bottom of the food chain) did get $1000 worth of NAB Shares (which I can't use until 2009) .

[mike-s]

'09 eh, well thats a bunch of frigging good. might as well have written it on toilet paper for thevalueits given to you.

Narellan is close to Campbelltown in Sydney. about 40-50 minutes west of the cbd if you take the m5 and avoid peak hour.

[Burky]

which I can't use until 2009

But if you leave do you get to take them with you?

Years ago Coles Myer give there staff shares as bonuses wich we all thought was great. The problem was in fine print that the money that they made was "retained" untill the shares had paid for themselves out but if you left you could buy them at the price they were when you were given them .

Remembering that these were you bonus that you busted your ass to get, and then have the "privilege" to buy

Screw that Give the cash/funds straight up no dicking around.

[Ratmick]

But if you leave do you get to take them with you?

Yes...well, most of them anyway. I have a bunch from the EBA (Enterprise Bargaining Agreement) this year which are half payable next year, half the year after. They are relinquished if you leave.

[Burky]

So your bonuses can still be raped

That sucks big time

[Greenblood]

Just went to Team Moto at Grandville looking for a helmet for the little guy and saw the 636. I bloody hate going into these kind of shops, see bike, sit on, imagine, fall in love then find out that it is possible. At about $14500 onroad the old ZX7 could almost get the boot The guys there are so helpfull. I wish they were rude that way i could leave and not think about it again.

Oh well untill i go back there during the week to find out more about the finance options, only time will tell , or they sell out first

Can't beleve you are getting rid of the 7.
Another one lost

[BladeBoy]

As mentioned the gap between a 600 and a 1000 is so small these days, that's all makes, may be worth your while to have a look, if not and your happy go for it
