If anyone there in Sydney can help me out, I need a professional opinion on a bike, an SP-1, at Frasers in Homebush.
Can someone PLEASE have a look at this bike in the show room and tell me what its's like?

Here's the link.

http://bikepoint.ninemsn.com.au/market/UsedBikeDetail.asp?BikeID=53185&Year=2001

I just want to know if it's in good condition, or in other words, would you buy it?

I can get it to WA for next to nothing but I'd only trust you guys to have a look.

Email me when you can and tell me what you think. If it's good, I'll get it shipped to WA.

Thanks guys!!

As far as I know it's still up for grabs! I'm seeing a mate of mine today about it, he works for Frasers Perth. Thanks so much for that mate!

can i take it for a test run and make sure it wheelies?...see how well everything is sorted before you make the purchase....perhaps i can take it to the track and make sure it likes to be leaned over also? images/icons/tongue.gif and you cant buy a bike that doesnt do burnouts...ill test that also....

campo, keep looking, I seen better SP1's with more aftermarket gear for around the same price with low k's.

Hey mate! The main reason for this one is cause I won't have to pay for it to come over to Perth. There's not many here either. You seen any good ones in Melb?

Thanks so much for that! If you get the chence to, can you take it for a ride, take note of kms on her and general cosmetic things.

Thanks again, I'll speak to you soon!

oi campo...
i got a day off tomorrow...
i will ring them up now and ask if i can come in tomorrow and test drive it and have a look at it...
whether i can handle an sp1 or not... it will be fun to find out... plus i just love those fucking exhausts... the high exit look... love it...
if you want me to go out there and look and ride it... just tell me and i will go tomorrow for you... if not... i understand...

oi campo...
he said that its bacially being sold as a new bike because it has never been registered and was only used a few times as a demo...
he said it comes with the factory warranty and everything and its a little bit cheaper than new but it still needs to go through rego and everything...
he said i can have a look at it and ride it if i want but he seemed very curious as to why you wanted to buy it and how much frasers in perth had told you it was...
if you wanna call the guy... you need to talk to Kelly James in honda sales at the following number... +61 2 9764 3133
just get back to me and let me know what you want to do...

I haven't been told a definate price yet but seen the price of $17000 on the web. I've been offered a new SP-1 here for $17000 on road so I'm hoping they'll drop it by some $$$ fingers crossed. Go take her for a ride mate, see how she feels and take note of the kms if you can! Cheers!

my license is suspended right now...
what do you think the chances of them checking up on it are...?
i dont know if i should risk it coz any insurance is void and if i get caught... you can add 2 years on to my 1 year that i just started... images/icons/frown.gif
losing my license fucking pisses me off... images/icons/mad.gif
i will go out and have a look and might take it for a ride...

Have a great chrissy break and safe new years etc images/icons/smile.gif
