Early in the this riding season, i saw a new Katoom 300 roll into the riding area..  I asked the owner and he stated his 450 was for sale.  He had a 18 y/o coming over to look at it...  he couldn't wait to unload it, as he was all grins about being on a smoker again.

chump6784 I give you credit to standing behind the original sale.  I know it would have been nice to pick a few more dollars in your pocket, but I'm with you and would have also held the bike for the buyer.  The one thing to realize, if something happened to the sale and the buyer backed out, the bike will still sell fast.

Got a deposit. Thing is before this I only had 2 calls from people 10 hours away, one saying he only wanted to spend 3k and an email from another guy offering 3.5k so when this guy offered 4.2k I took it. I was prepared to let it go for 4k anyway.

When the guy came to look at it he told me I should keep it cos it will be worth more in a couple years when supply starts running out. Really I just wanted it gone

Grins is what its all about isn't it? And the thing is, you're not scared about screaming out the 300 either, well you'd be scared of the power but not of the cost anyway.

sure is. i was talking to my mechanic the other day and he asked how the bike went and then he commented on how everyone is getting back on two strokes and the tide is turning. i am just surprised it has taken so long
And after the success of the 2 stroke national at Coolum they're thinking of maybe 3 or 4 next year. Hope so..... Hopefully they have one here in WA!

The hardest part about riding a 4 stroke is telling your parents your Gay!!
