Question #1 Is it sick (fully) ? and,

Qestion # 2 Does it go hard (the bike) ?

Let me know, tell me all about it. You will probably never hear from me again as I just like to surf Ebay and and stoopid questions.

P.S Will you sell before Auction ends, I dont have an offer in mind but you can bet I will want it cheaper than you have it advertised for! will u seel it for cheap?

Hardo, I know your pain. I had some dude ring me at midnight asking questions about my old ute that I sold on EBAY. This bloke didnt even know what questions to ask about the car, he just wanted a chat. In the end he insulted me and hung up. I will not leave a phone number in the ad anymore.

In any case, that is a fine machine to display. If you have to look at it for bit longer so be, it is certainly not hard on the eye.

Does this bike have a powerband?
Is it a 2 or 4 stroke?

Great bike.
Cheers, Grahame

PMSL !!!

 :D :D :D

OMG guys... thanks for that.... 

Sad bit is - you are all SOOOOO close to the type of questions I have had !!! 

One guy asks what the reserve is and seems all keen and genuine.... I respond with the reserve..... he then responds with... " oh yea... thats a good price..... umm but I have to sell my two bikes first..."  puulllleeeaaassseeeeee.....  ???

BTW Grahame... I removed the powerband, but It's sitting on my workbench at the moment and can be included free with the sale.  :P

Nice bike Hardo.I am sure it will sell.My take is bikes seem to take a bit longer to sell these days.

Wait till this happens to you Hardo

I took a bike from Sydney to Woolongong for a guy to have a look at. He informs me he had one back in the day and he wants another one to ride vmx. When i get there he says " Oh, It`s got a radiator. I don`t want a water cooled bike"

I should have jerry`d on to him when he said he didn`t know how to get to Sydney and he was living with mum and dad. The guy is as old as me.

Anyway...Offload the Honda and buy my high zoot KX 500......your kx250 looks lonely

Your therapist told me he doesn't like you either :D

And I've got a pretty big arse, it's going to take a lot of sueing.
