    this guy has the best Gumtree ad I have ever seen

    http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/noosaville/motorcycles/kawasaki-zxr-750r-superbike-status/1094632762



    CLASSIC KAWASAI ZXR750R

    LOW KMS

    YOSHI PIPE.

    SUNNY COAST.


    After being mucked around, stood up, lied to and told sob stories by, too many time wasting oxygen thieves, I have developed the below terms and conditions of dealing with me.


    1. Nothing I am advertising with this disclaimer attached is a massively life altering asset. I just don’t want or need it anymore. I want to sell this item, but it’s not going to ruin my life if I don’t.


    2. If you are interested in my item for sale and it is in your price range, contact me to arrange a viewing and conduct any negotiation if the price is listed as negotiable. If you get this far, show some common courtesy by actually turning up. If your Nanna gets run over by a rogue elephant or if for some reason you genuinely can’t make it, COMMUNICATE. If you are one of those people who regularly make commitments, and then all of a sudden just can’t be arsed, seriously consider if this is going to affect our amiable relationship before making such commitments.


    3. If you are NOT interested in my item or you can’t afford it, DO NOT contact me, have a nice day 


    4. If you have an intelligent or even stupid question about something that is not covered by this advert, FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME.


    5. DO NOT attempt to negotiate with me via text, telephone, email, carrier pigeon etc. I am a reasonable guy, but I’m also a busy guy. Spending time playing text tennis with some moron who thinks jerking genuine advertisers around by text is some form of perverted entertainment, is not how I wish to spend my valuable time. If you are genuinely interested, refer to T&C #2.


    6. I WILL NO LONGER HOLD ANY ITEM! The first person to actually comply with the T&C’s and get as far as actually handing over the cash, will be the proud new owner of the item. However, as stated in T&C # 5, I am a reasonable guy who also hates being white anted, and will contact you prior to finalizing any deal if we have previously made arrangements.


    So to simplify:


    1. See advert
    2. Check Budget
    3. Contact to arrange viewing
    4. Attend viewing – bring cash
    5. Negotiate
    6. Pay
    7. Leave with your new item.
    8. You happy. Me Happy. Everyone’s a winner!


    If you’ve made it this far without thinking I’m an unreasonable cretin and moved on to the next ad, I look forward to pleasant dealings with you.


    Cheers,

    Nice. Not keen on the orange paint. Prefer the original white with red flashes.

    Only reason I went that colour was because it didn't cost me anything. I'm trying to recreate the decals in a colour that should work with the orange.

    Any colour was better than the white with rust patches. :D

    Hi Kirk, Sorry I didn't mean to sound offensive. Orange is actually one of my favourite colours and your bike looks fine in that colour. I like the original CBX colour scheme, but anything is better than rust. Cheers Frank
