Welcome

We now have some great accommodation available just five minutes off route 2 and only five minutes to Waihi township or Waihi Beach.

We can pick you up from Auckland, Tauranga, Hamilton or Rotorua airports. You can stay with us while your bike is organised and we’ll make sure that you begin your New Zealand adventure tour well rested.

Read more and see some photos.

Here we’ve added some photos to see what you’re missing by not being here!  And of course, you can go anywhere on your Buy Back bike as you own it and can do what you like with it.  No hire or rental restrictions, go see the REAL New Zealand.  And remember, here in New Zealand, most beaches are treated as public highways, so you can ride on them.  But of course, normal road rules apply, so no drinking or speeding, but how cool is that?

With this page we welcome you to come over here, see the countryside and then send us your photos.  As long as they are not on the dodgy side, we’d love to see what your trip was like and what you thought.

Confirming the new levies today, Dr Smith said registration rates for motorcycles would range from $327.70 to $426.92, compared with rates of between $511.43 and $745.77 under rates proposed by ACC. But that is still an increase of between $75 and $174 for the owners of petrol powered motorcycles.

2000 model BMW r1150GS
Indicative price is $8000 nzd – $9000 nzd.

Update: This bike has now been sold.

We have a black BMW R1150GS available from a contact that Peter met a few months ago.  Anyone who knows bikes knows these are superb dual purpose bikes, one or two up.

The owner’s heading back home to Europe and is wanting to sell the bike so if anyone is interested please get in touch by filling in the form to the right.

We weren’t planning on carrying any stock just yet but this will make an excellent cheap tourer for someone to see New Zealand and maybe even Australia on!  So if someone out there is thinking about coming out to New Zealand and looking for a great motorcycle this will be a cheaper option than hiring one.

The details are;

2000 model BMW r1150GS
160, 000 KM on the motor (around 100,00 miles)
Colour: Black

The bike is in good condition and comes with factory panniers and top box. It has a 12 volt output for GPS navigator, phone, laptop etc.  Also comes with 2 different size riding suits (jackets, pants) and HJC Helmets. Sizes XL and M on both.  We know the kms are high, but the price reflects this.  And it has a full BMW service history with it, most of the kms being long distance in NZ and Oz.  So grab yourself a bargain, which of course we’ll happily have back at the end of your trip.

Let us know if you or anyone you know are interested. We’ll check the bike out and make sure that it’s as described, plus it’ll be serviced.

After years in the motorcycle business, in retail and also including bike tours in New Zealand, we decided to start a specialised motorcycle buy back option as we were asked on numerous occasions if there were options to do buy backs, instead of just rental.  No one was offering a decent and affordable motorcycle buy back option so we decided to start MotorcycleBuyback.com

This web site will show case some of the amazing routes that you can do on your own bike as well as show you any bikes we have in stock and a whole lot more. For now we have some information about the advantages of going with a buy back, how it works and what it costs.

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

All the best and we look forward to hearing from you .
