Probably means that the seller is a dealer or business of some sort and the bike has been included as a part of his inventory.  Subsequently when he sells it, the selling price includes a GST component so if you are another business buying it, you can claim that portion as an input tax credit.

Your kidding me. Look closely just someone with a few cans of CAT yellow paint and a YZ tank. I wonder if it starts and runs?

They have BOTH those bikes for sale.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/YAMAHA-XT500-JOHN-DEERE-promo-bike-/190710009946?pt=AU_Motorcycles&hash=item2c6733d05a

Lots of interesting stuff for sale actually.

It would probably be the guys at the Australian Motorcycle Museum at Haigslea.

Yep that's exactly who it is, the guy that owns the museum actually. Hell of a nice guy and has great contact for shipping out of the east coast of the us. He sources his bikes in conjunction with Michael Keirnan of Michaels motorcycles who is an expat Aussie, knows his stuff and knows the quality of bikes Aussies expect. Doesn't buy shit, doesn't sell shit. Id be very suprised if someone bought a bike through him and wasn't happy with their steed.  ;D

Cheers, Brendan  :)
