It's the same old story "when you're not looking for them they come crawling out of the woodwork"

Of course I'm looking - I always am, but they are both in the middle of bloody nowhere for me. There's a particularly good one for me in Gosford. Wear the fox hat. It's advertised as a J model, but is an H with J plastics. At least it would get me the swingarms and wheels and a spare motor (always handy). The other one is in Gorakan (???) Both are pick up only I think.
I imagine the complete one will go for much more than it is at the moment. Bit surprised by the price the black one has gone to already. Must have been a "limited edition" ;D
If anyone lives near either of them I'd be happy to talk turkey about doing a pickup for me.
Cheers ;)

Tony, I can pick up the Penrith bike effortlessly. If that black one has a rebuilt motor, as advertised, it would be a bargain.
The Gorakan bike would take a little more planning.
Ask and you shall recieve ;D

Thanks so much for the offer Graeme - I may just hold you to it yet ;D. Will be interesting to see how high the black one goes. The one in Gorakan looks to be a bit more "honest"
The bits I'm after are tank, seat (got a spare 250 base that should fit but will have to check) swing arm, shock and wheels. Sounds like a lot, but it's not really.
I might have a punt at the Gorakan bike and leave it up to the VMX gods to work out transport. If I can get it to Brisbane I can do a TM Bill luggage scam on the plane as I visit Brisbane all the time for work.
Thanks again mate - we'll see how we go with it.
Cheers

PM sent Graeme. Only an idea so .......
-
Thats a nice change...both bikes went for reasonable (from the buyers/restorer's POV) price ...$521 for the black one and $306 for the Gorakan one.
At these prices I might start resto'ing 125's ::)
-
Yeah, but you watch the next go through the roof !!! ::)
Too true though Graeme - it would be good if they would stay at this kind of price
