You're considering his 400 Gamma?

As for shipping, I sent an 87 RZ350 to Alabama last year using Forward Air. Cost was $800 plus $100 for insurance. Used their steel roll in-roll out motorcycle specific shipping container. Took 10 minutes to crate and arrived in Alabama 2 days later. No special handling fees and no brokerage to pay for. I don't know what the Quebec guy is doing, but his shipping methed seems pretty pricy. Google Forward Air and check it out.

A lot of the grey market bikes are coming into Canada through this guy.

If you're after that 400 Gamma ask how it ended up in Quebec. It looks a lot like a 400 Nuak had recently. Nuak has a horrible reputation
and has screwed many people over. A lot of the bikes he imports are real dogs. I just talked to a guy that bought an NS400R from Nuak over the summer. It came safetied, registered in Ontario, and ready to ride. Well, right up until the gearbox and engine fell apart. It needs a complete rebuild. Be very careful with any bike that came from Nuak. Many do and many are heartaches just waiting to happen.


BTW...What is upgrade to Walter Wolf supposed to mean? It's not an upgrade, it's just bodywork and his is likely from China.

I saw this bike last summer , it's a flip bought near Montreal , the original owner sold me a 1985 part bike and offered me the blue one for $3000. Nice one , not perfect but priced too high for the local market IMO .

The red and white is a nice one , on and off on Kijiji for more than a year and still for sale .

Rants are never wasted, they have therapeutic value.

Score! Always liked those, I think they only came to Canada for 1 year so you never see many of them, especially in that condition.
