Hi fellow forumites, hope you are all managing to stay safe whilst the world spirals down the gurgler, although no doubt many of you (like me) are making the most of any additional enforced shed time.
Having had too much time on my hands of late has led me to purchase a very original DT175 from someone in SA and so I was hoping someone might be able to provide some advice or recommendations on who I might be able to use to get the bike back to The Central Coast.
TIA

Ohh nice pickup Mark, as you know I'd love one of those as well at some point.
Sorry no idea about transport tho.

Re: Help needed with transportation
Yeah Jon, a 175MX has been on my wish list for some time, so the opportunity to purchase a two owner bike with just 9,500 kms on the clock became too much to resist.
Now I just need to get the damn thing home....

Re: Help needed with transportation
Yes I remember you saying and this one sounds like a nice one. A good catch.
If you get totally stuck we do have a member or two in SA who might be bale to store it for you perhaps?

Re: Help needed with transportation
I think I am going to have to reach out to someone down that way to perhaps store it for a while until I can make arrangements to ship it interstate as the seller says he needs the space freed up. If you can suggest anyone down that way, I would be grateful.
Cheers

Re: Help needed with transportation
I’m in SA, will help where I can, have garage space until you can sort transport, and weirdly just bought an 87 DT175 yesterday, so if yours is unmessed with I can look it over for my own info!

Re: Help needed with transportation
Thanks D, long story short I thankfully found a kind fellow VJMC member to rehome the DT in Adelaide for a couple of months before a haulage contact kindly bought it back to Sydney via Parkes for me. So it is now here on the Central Coast safe and sound but appreciate you reaching out cheers.
Re: Help needed with transportation
Good luck with it and enjoy!
