now I really kick myself over the ex Dale Buggins YZ I had and you would think for that money the TM seller could at least crate it for free!!  ::)

mmm, its a bike with history , but im unsure about the motives, he goes onto say he decided to sell in 2006, and  is selling cause of the interest in VMX ..kching$$$$, then goes on to find the guy make a movie and exclusive momoribila and wheels the guy out for fots, ...kaching $$$ call me cynical but this guy seem to be trying to cash in and thats reflected in the asking price.  would be a little differant if he was satying all profit is going to the dare devil bob foundation, but i thnnk this one is just planened out greed.

I'm not sure Daredevil Bob Gill was THAT famous! $250,00 for a crappy old TM400 with stretched frame and buggered guards? Tell him he's joking.

You can find out some more here, he actually WAS famous... sort of.

Darcy, the only Bob Gill I've ever heard of is Bob Gill the Timber Man here in Brisbane..errr..no wait a sec..that's his brother John :D I feel for the guy in the wheelchair (no disrespect intended Bob) but it's kinda like laying in the middle on the Pacific highway on a rainy night..not a case of 'if', it's a case of when.
