sad, because I just traded in my GT650R...happy, because I just picked up a new 09 speed triple in hot matt black...
I won't say good bye as I will still be trolling around from time to time.
by the way....if there is anyone in Melbourme Aus that is after an exhaust....I have a Megacycle can in very good condition that I removed from the bike before I traded it.
pick up from Springvale South...asking $300....
PM for details

cheers guys....this is one of the best bike forums around...and the info I've got from here has been invaluable

Congrats on the new bike.

Noone can hold it against you for moving on from hyo... its a starter bike and thats it.


This can stainless steel i presume?


What sort of a trade-in value did they give you?

it's carbon fibre covered alloy...they (Megacycle) actually make the sport muffler for hyo aus

After selling mine privately, I'm really hesitant to go back to a Hyo. I absolutely loved the bikes but until people start to hear about them, they're doomed to the clearance bin.

I used my new found cash to build up the music studio I always wanted. Smiley

+1 to that bazza, and as far as 'doomed to the clearance bin' (see 2 post above) I bought my 2007 Hyo in 2008 and ran it for 2 years before looking in my local Hyo dealer. I liked the look of the 2010 so I part exchanged it - the dealer gave me exactly what I paid for it 2 years ago, he didn't know it though. Who says they depreciate in value quickly?

Well Mick don't be too upset when you go to trade the Trumpy, if you think the Hyo depreciated wait till you trade/sell the Trumpy. Know of a few shocker stories there  Shocked

Yeah I know....it's one of the things of owning any kind of motor vehicle...they usually drop a few $K when you take them off the lot...
