If it had been ready for sale before CD7 it could have been freighted there for only $150 leaving an empty crate for a VMXWA member to take something home, there's always next year whens CD8?  ;D

anyone with half a brain wanting to get into vmx should grab this bike. I can only imagine that the fact that it's in WA has been the reason it hasn't sold.



Obviously you had me in mind with this post ::).  Yes I have been considering it.
3 problems - I already have 11 bikes (8 still projects for restos), the missus (refer problem 1) and the $3500 that I don't have.  I would have bought it in a snap as I don't have a pre 75 and a lot of the scene over here is pre 75.  Sadly EVO is a little missed out (apart from pre 85) over here.

I'll start saving (dollars and brownie points)  ;D ;D
Looking for YZ250C parts NOS if possible

"My inability to use emoticins in the right context is really getting me down :)
The only triple jumps he would have been doing are the hop, skip & jump.

I don't think it will be sold anytime soon, I may consider a partial trade for something I can licence for the road  ;)

To be honest the hardest part is convincing the missus I need ANOTHER bike  ;D ;D
The only road bike I have is a '99 Fireblade.  That is QLD still and not quite vintage yet  ::)

I would love to own that bike. Another great opportunity. All the hard yards done,  and ready to rock n roll. That's the way to buy them. I cut my teeth on these little Suzi's. But sadly I just had to sell this road ready one last night to keep the MDF in forward motion(Maico Dreams factory).

Damet Janet.

Bloody nice bike CG .early model heavy head  late model clutch and lots of genuine period goodies  trick brake pedal... TM125 frame ? sure looks the goods ..

long way from brisneyland but still a lot of hard earned pennies have gone into that little bike and anyone buying it has a bargain. I know how much it must have cost getting an outfit to that stage of completion and finish.

 id make you an offer but the bike is still not on the eastern side of the world .. good luck mate and again . bloody nice bike , looks better than mine although my 185 is well under 90kg flexy frame and all and I think she has more than has a few ponies more, strictly a weekend fun forest ride  but yours sure has the presentation.

Snap it up guys.

Well done! Where's it headed, or is it staying local?
