Hey peeps,
The verdict is in and I can buy the new yellow if I wnt but I think I really want to buy the Jaffa up north NSW but I need help to get it done.
The bike is located at Angourie NSW, about 185 ks south of Gold Coast airport.
What I am hoping for is some help to go check bike out (and buy it if all is as it seems). I will be landinh in Coolangatta in afternoon of Easter Sunday and flying out AM Easter Monday. I can hire a car to get there but it would be great if someone could come with me and drive car back if I buy it and ride back.
Also I will be needing a place to store bike until transport can come pick it up.. Should be that week..
If I can organise this then the Jaffa will be my next bike.
Cheers in advance for any help
my mobile is 0428 587 383 for quicker contact

Thinks that's bens?? The think is why would I buy that??
16500 + 500 (to go see it) + 750 (transport) + 700 (rego and inspection) = 18450
Virgin sitting in showroom = 17990

They rego is only good for 60 days here in Tassie, unless I know someone in Vic to keep it rego'd.
The transport just across the water is 460 non negotiable plus about 300 from Sydney to Melbourne. I have done that twice now, the 99 cost me 860, the 01 650 a few yrs ago.
I know that bens bike is a great but for someone NOT in Tassie, and I do really hope he sells it. But for me I would have to offer way less to makeup for it NOT being a virgin... Thought about it heaps cause it a great deal. Even the missus has said if I wanna spend that much then o the extra and buy my first EVER new vehicle.
BTW.. I can get a Jaffa for under 9k

Hey Batty I was trying to be nice (bad to be typing this out intoxicated in the middle of no where) I was under the idea that all states were on holidays a week apart on start times to make it easy on every one (that would be to bloody easy) I'm sure which every way you go a member from Melbourne May be able to help you out for a week or two especially if your giving a tour of your country early next year, which I can recommend highly,(bribe me later for that one lmao)and don't forget that Suzuki has an offer on at the moment for free on roads as well as being discounted a little bit AT this time.!!!hope you have a win soon and get on another busa soon
