To be honest, the DR800 is giving me a chubby, but a Wee-strom for a few more $$$ will be more sensible..... But I don't want to be sensible..... And I haven't seen many DR Bigs for sale.....

Looks better and has more character than a baby wee....
Cheaper too.

I had to do this for the WoF, it would have failed. It turns out that the spade wire connection on the bars had broken.
It has been replaced with a new one, everything all good with the bike now

Due to the overwhelming interest, the DR800s is still for sale..
Thanks all for the interest, some real and some just testing their options....(tyre kickers...)
I will allow rides from serious interested parties but she isn't a bike to see whether you want to try out
your yearn for adventure riding...
or pique your mid life crisis...

Fresh warrant today, so the price has increased...!

**Waihou Thumper** · 31st March 2015, 18:34

My DR800s is coming back home to me and I am going to keep it
Due to unforeseen circumstances the previous owner has to sell it, so I bought it....
He has only done approx 500 km on it, so all good as far as I am concerned.

The bike was picked up this morning, I got her home and cleaned her, patted her and gave her a little once over...
Looking good and just as I left her, apart from the side-stand switch isolated (good thing) and the flood lights on the engine bars removed...
I was going to remove all of those things anyway as all of those electric farkles plays havoc with the charging system in as much, it don't.
Hence flt battery when riding!
Heated grips are now plug and play when required, the GPS will be wired and that's it.
