Title: Wanted - White ST 1300's
Post by: Sabie on August 16, 2013, 10:29:37 PM
Hi Everyone

I'm looking for 2 White ST1300's for a business venture. I'm currently in the Feasability Study Stage of the venture.

So if you've heard of a white 1300 for sale or seen one on the Web please reply post the link.

Cheers

Sabie

Hmmmm.. maybe we could try and find some hens teeth as well..  :crackup

Maybe you could check out the government auctions such as Pickles at the Bohle, or even Grays online. I believe the QPS may be retiring some STs. I was talking to one of our local riding constabulary not long ago and he indicated he wanted to buy his ST as it was coming up for replacement soon.

I have a Pickles contact and will find out whether any more are likely to go to auction.  Good luck with the venture.  I'm also in the thinking stages of a bike related venture for the future ;-)

WA currently has ST13s so keep an eye out over there.  Police FJRs should be more readily available, but may not suit your plan.

No Still, no sidecars....

It may not get off the ground..... I'm researching the Feasability at the moment, but what I can say is I've only found 2 other businesses in Australia who provide a similar service to my idea.

Wedding Bikes.....very little call if any

Wide loads escort  ........ You need to undertake a training program and hold a permit, under qld law escort and pilot are 2 separate things. Already a heap of well established pilot wide load businesses around.

Urgent blood transfers ...... Little point in Townsville,  the district base hospital is here so there's nowhere to really transfer the blood to. Otherwise they use aircraft for outlying towns.

Sorry guys, good try....

Post by: Cerebral Knievel on August 18, 2013, 09:09:10 PM
That would require a refrigerated trailer i'd suspect.
So we are now looking at a B-Double set up ...
A fridge pan for the " final journey " & folding wing sided B trailer for general freight haulage.
Perhaps a government grant could be applied for to necessitate preliminary engineering designs ?
ST Haulage ( a division of Smurf Transport ) has a catchy name i think ....

Taking advantage of the "bum's on seat's" business model you are using,
perhaps making it methane powered will attract the green market segment & lower operating cost's   :butt

Got your message BB.

Still researching, I've found a bike that may better suit my purposes. Just got to contact a few companies to see if they'll use the business if I set it up.

So rather than $30,000 something each, the Kawa's are $13,000 each some even less.

Sabie,

There is a company down south that is trying to get this off the ground in Queensland also. There are a couple of issues that they are finding including police permission. I'd be happy to discuss this with you off the forum. Send me your number. I would hate for you to spend alot of time any possibly money and not be able to see your plan to fruition.

Update on the WA Police ST1300 I posted that was up for auction at Pickles, Welshpool.  Auction finished today and it sold for $6,800 (2006 model).  I was very tempted until the price kept rising!
