Well i finally did it, went in this arvo and picked myself an 04 Crim with 6,800kms on the clock for quite a good deal with 6 months rego!
I am over the moon and i LOVE the bike, best bike i have owned and even ridden!
WOOT!
Me and a mate on his R1 are planning on coming over later this year for PI so we would like to meet up with yas!
Let the Good times roll!

Yeah, i was quite chuffed, its been out of rego for 1 year also, bit strange if u asked me, its like the previous owner bought it, rode it 6xxx km's then let it sit for ages. Checked it all over today and all is good! The previous owner is mid 40s and into dirt bikes so no idea why he got this for. But its REALLY tidy and basically show room condition!
I rode a gumby with 2,000km's on it and i must say i was vert disappointed and much perfer the Crim. After i read the review between the C & G that was posted up on here, i must agree that the Gumby has a much heavier crank as it felt like it took alot more to get the gumby engine upto speed, where as the crim's engine feels light as a feather and will certainly sting like a bee
I rode the K7, the CBR 05 1k, R1 05, gumby and this, and this. Crim was favourite followed by the R1. Honda was poo and least favourite, it was so tame and boring and conservative
I reckon i got myself a good deal and a top bike also so smiles all round! Now my mate with his R1 is trying to tell me his bike is better... PFFFFTTTTT
