*Deleted wounded the non-active members post for being off topic Razz*

Yeah thanks Cos, it looks good. Im looking at probably a 2005 to 2008. Willing to spend up to 10k. The new models come out with that trumpet muffler which looks pretty shit, but Id go a new pipe pretty quick.

i lost my first licnce on my cbr250rr, so cut. and some1 said that you can replace ferrings lol. wen i came of my bike for the first time that was more then i paid for the bike.

they are shit bunch of bikes but great learner legal bikes

hyosung = CHEAP korean bikes but they are V-twin so they have a good sound for a 250 and actually look pretty decent (thats the one i would get)

cbr250 = are everywhere should be able to find one at everycorner under 20,000k's (the quickest learner legal bike ive heard of). or the cb250 which is shit but can get you to a to b...

aprillia = my uncle ken has one rs250 << not learner legal for a 250 but fun as fuck, 2 stroke screamers <<< the best 250 ever been on..............if you can get away with it SO WORTH IT.....

and my mate rides a wr450 and somehow is legal for learner, thats a dirt bike though..... darwin road law as well!!

^^^ thats all i know, from past experiences, hope it helps^^

boots

lol@boots
Bob is lookin at a 1000cc Kwaka boots not a 250 Learner.
With the mods, like pipes etc get em overseas n shipped. I got my Akrapovic Carbons from Canada shipped to the door for $500 cheaper than i can get em here. Especially since the AU dollar is 92 US atm its def worth it. Just have to be carefull on the price as you my have to pay customs duty if over $1000.


mmmm check this out same brand on mine in carbon looks sweeeet


lol here am i posting pipes for ya and ya havnt even got the machine yet rofl
I love mods Twisted Evil

p.s got that info here:
http://www.z1000.net/accessories.htm

Check out this $1000 US
Akra titanium/carbo slipons
http://www.motomummy.com/store/product.php?productid=17610&cat=0&page=1
motomummy is a great place to order shit.

Found a nice 05 model Z1000 in QLD with only 2750kms on it for under 10 grand!!
looks like a great buy from a dealer also so ya get warranty!

Have you thought of a Yamaha FZ1?

The 06-07 model looks nicer than the new models imo and go for 10-12 grand

Yes wounded, if it is a topic which concerns me I do try and keep it clean. If it bothers you so much, feel free to do the same.

@Cosi
Your getting excited mate Very Happy
Yeah had a bit of a look at the FZ1, they look pretty nice but they copied the kwaka naka. Good to know about shipping for the pipes. Its all just a matter of finding one local now. Then we can get quacks and gazz and go for a FTW ride day.

@boots
