Wow amazing it sat for so long

OK, my birthday is coming up on the 25th, just in case anyone is feeling particularly generous this month.

I love the part about how the daughter hated it.

It's not a great scoooter for any new rider, boy or girl.

The tv200 is even worse.(my personal fav)

Do to the porting and carb set up you have to lay on the throttle for take off and shift high in the band or otherwise the bike will ride like a fart.

I rode a stock tv200 and was told not to be lazy on it.

I'd like that bike for some early rides to work when nobody is on the road.

Be a bitch to register in Ca with less than 7K on the odo.

That thing will be in England quick as hell. It'll end up somewhere aroun $8k-$9k US.

ill be lucky to get socks

Yeah, unfortunately currency is in their favor. Prolly end up as a cut-down or with engraved casings and some "Alien vs Predator" airbrush job. That bike should be in a freaking museum.

boo! not that I condone that sort of airbrushed and engraved nonsence. last place that bike should be is a museum. should be on the road. every time a bike is taken off the road for no good reason a baby otter dies

Best quote of the year

Cheers

son of a.... you beat me to it... I was busy laughing... Jackson.. Baby Otter? Maaaaaaan you made that shit up! lol

Def up there on the list of great ones... Baby Otter.. Sicko!

But, but, but ..... Vespa?

Holy cow, it's over six grand now


I didn't post this in deal o' the day, but maybe would go here nicely. Seems like sorta 'too good too be troo' a bit, so Caveat Emptor! Here, on ScootNet. Grab this for $2200 & flip it on eBay.

PS Save The Otters!

fwiw, nothing 'too good' about those prices for some messed with Servetas. probably worth it for someone with interest, but doubt that flipping would yield any profit.

HA that one popped up local too


a mate is selling a 200 original everything 14000

$14k?

That is getting into 69 CB750 Sandcast pricing!

$14548.80 - that would save a lot of baby otters
Crazy rich Aussies. Does Murdoch ride?

In 15 hours we'll know how crazy it is here.

This is why I stopped buying Scootering magazine awhile back. It seems that that's pretty much all they ever highlight. It's vomitous.

bless him. Please save him. No museum!!

Well, with 50 minutes left and the thing is still at 6100.01

With you on that I only buy occasionally but too much emphasis on the over done scooters and also more adverts than editorial.

Winning bid was 8300.00

Had the same scooter in '94. Payed 250 for it. Sure dish I still had it.

Interesting bidding. Bounces around, 4 or 5 ppl & stopped @6200 3 days ago, then 2 strangers show up, less than 10 seconds to go with 8222 & then 8322 wins.

Battling bid software, 8222 guy set the price. Wonder what 8322 guy's limit was?

I've tried to hold out longer, but usually get antsy & click soon after it gets under a minute. No bid software for ME. Yet.

The $8222 was an incremental bid, while the $8322 winning bid was most likely a ceiling bid like $9500. Seeing as the next highest bid was $8222, the next available bid was $8322. Winner.

I thought I just said that, lol.

Sorry if unclear to all.

Sorry, I was just saying it most likely wasn't as sophisticated as bidding software.

Just fingers coated in grease from a fish and chips order.

FOUR seconds before closing??? Better add a certified chronometer, T1 connection & nerves of steel then.
AND those slippery fast fishy fingers for sure!

www.esnipe.com is cheap and easy

Well they didnt buy it for me and it was my birthday!
