Thread: Bike... what to buy?

Still got my eye out for a bike but I am thinking that perhaps 600cc would be a good thing as above that I SA the rego costs go through the roof!
The TRXs' are nice but a bit heavy on the arthritic left wrist.

Aye, thumper funduros are fun and pretty easy and comfortable to otherwise sore wrists.
If you like, check out some more FAQs and bike stories of the thumper genre.

This is my bike i bought it in Feb this year for $1600, with 12 months rego and roadworthy, new brakes.
My mate resprayed it and i am in the process of getting new stickers made for it.
1995 ZZR 600 very nice to ride light to turn around in the driveway (pushing), and all the power a 50 year old wannabe needs. Yep it will break the speed limit too - and doesnt leak oil.

I'd buy that!!
An air cooled Honda motor is usually a good thing, very reliable. Low k's and looks in good shape. the best bit of info in all that waffle is the last line, "Make me an offer!" means he doesn't really expect to get the price he's asking for.
Doms were a good bike, a little heavy for off-road but thats not what you want it for anyway.
Along those lines, keep your eyes open for Yamaha Tenere's. Similar sort of bike, probably my pick. But that Dom looks good.
Happy trails,
Peter.
