    EOI: I'm upgrading so I'm not sure if I should trade in or sell privately.

    Honda VTR250 2010

    Around 9000km (just under ATM, not riding too much due to the rain - I've been out when it's been lightly sprinkeling, but not in "rain").
    Black, no modifications
    Small scratch on the exhaust
    Tires are good. EFI model (so no messing about with a choke in winter).
    Naked, trellis frame, 90 degree V-twin, super stable handling. IMO - best learner bike in the sense that if you've new to motorcycling, you'll learn heaps and safely on this bike. Not just go fast in a straight line.


    Looking for $7000 ono. As it's an EOI right now, feel free to pm me with a non-committal offer.

    Considering they're only $8k ride away for a 2011 model, you'd be crazy to trade it in...

    I had one of these for my first bike, absolutely loved it, rode it practically every single day for the 4 months I owned it. Can only imagine how much better it'd be with EFI...

    Shame you traded it although I can understand that once the upgrade bug bites...

    I had the same bike in the same situation about 18 months ago (although mine had less than 3,000km on it - insurance replacement after some F***er tried to steal the previous one, writing off the frame in the process!).

    [BTW I agree that this is a great learner bike - although the CB400 would be excellent too]

    Given that I was happy to buy the new bike (2011 z1000 ABS) at the CMCC they agreed to sell my bike on consignment - I think that they had 8k on it and sold it for $7500 but I got the 7k I was after and it took 10 days! (From memory the trade offer was around $5500.

    Enjoy the new bike!
