Help from someone in Vic

Post by Mitch »

Hi All,

I am looking to buy a ZX10R from a guy in the Kilmore area in Vic, but being in Brisbane makes it hard to get up close and personal with the bike. I was wondering if someone who is mechanical competent would like to go there and give the bike the once over and give me and idea on the condition of it.

I would hate to get it to Brisbane and find out it is a lemon.

Yes, but he said he wanted someone mechanically competent :oops:.

I am pretty close though, Kilmore is about 35-40 minutes away (probably around 30 on a bike).

I'm willing to go and kick tyres as part of a posse though... 8)
