Title: G'day from Brisbane
Post by: BNE-Tim on Wednesday, 28 August 2019, 06:00 PM
My '08 14 I've had for 7 years. Bought it from a bloke in Kingscliffe NSW. He was doing them up for fun - he was a local retired school teacher. This one was a repairable write off. Its got ~40k on it. Every time I think about selling it - I jump on and have a ride and  change my mind. Now that my kids have got licences, I'm not driving them everywhere, I've taken to riding more and  doing minor mods. I'm really enjoying it again.

Not serious serious Peter but I'd consider a low mileage Blue and White, "those Black ones are way too slow"  :stir: :stir: :stir: :stir: It does look in good nick and price seems about right  :onya: :onya:

Chris, you are so so right.
My current 1400 was black.
I put on b/w tank and duck tail, removed the black front mudguard and it took off like a blue and white.
Unbelievable.
Tell that to the kids today ....................
That guy also does the same with Hayabusas and a B Kings.
Just in case.
