Title: Saying Hi.......again
Post by: Whitewheels on Sunday, 28 March 2021, 02:57 AM
Hey guys n girls, thought I would drop in and say hi.....I've actually been a member forever but not been on for a while..... I've had a k4 (Maggie) and had to let my k2  (Foxy) go lady yr, anyhow every time I think I wanna change I always come back to them lol, after all it is the bike I've owned over the last 17yrs 🙄😂😂.......so just wanted to say hi to everyone including some of the old guard like Dave (gsx barmy) and the likes if they are still kicking around, and also let you know, I'm on the look out for a k2 preferably in the nicest condition ever if someone is looking to let one go.....others considered but must be 👌 Just so....cash waiting.....cheers Stewy

Loads of the old guard are here plus lots of new folk too making this one of the best forums online .

G'day Whitewheels, good to have you along.
Do feel l need to point out that in the name of being PC and inclusive "black wheels matter"
Best of luck finding yourself a bike that's to your liking. Welcome  :cheers:

Got a blue and white K2 in mint condition which is obviously the fastest and most sort after model 🤗 Sadly for you it's going no where as it's one of the loves of my life😍 Good luck finding one Mate but they do turn up on occasion as I found mine last year. Getting one that is completely or near standard is difficult though. Be aware there are quite a few on eBay that are selling for very high values and described as mint. They are in fact refurbished bikes with polished forks and engine cases etc. I'm sure you know that anyway.

Gidday & welcome to the forum.  You & Speedy will probably be good mates, you both buy n sell 14's then buy 'em again.

come on Big Phil, time to let go......how much and when can I collect her 😂😂.....yes I've seen the ones that are"mint" and it just must mean a different thing to what it means for me 😳😳 I'm hard to please at the best of times haha......so if it's mint it's gotta be pretty dam special 👍🏻👍🏻

🤣😂🤣 I really hope you find one Mate. A guy on here got one a few months ago with something like 3k miles on it that was absolutely stunning. Never thought I would see one better than mine, as good as perhaps, but not better until I saw pictures of that one. So they are out there.

Welcome back and good luck with your search.

As yu say there is probably something out there if you are patient, but second hand values seem to be really holding up at the moment from what I can see on EBay.

Post by: Whitewheels on Friday, 02 April 2021, 06:50 AM
You probs do mate, used to have a S1 Lightning Strike and then bought a S1 White Lightning when I first moved to Staffordshire  👍🏻
Title: Re: Saying Hi.......again
Post by: Milts on Sunday, 04 April 2021, 10:58 PM

I remember you sending me photos of your K2 at the time, but l needed to sell my X1 Lightning before i could commit, It did look a lovely example l still have photos of it to this day  :onya:

I did manage to find a stunning K3 in the end but l much prefer the graphics of a K2 model.

Good luck with your search.
