A total fluke!! I can offer you one for sale right here. 2003 just 5700Km from new, two owners and it is equipped for adventure riding. Fresh oil and filter change, brand spanking new Acerbis long range tank on it, pack rack just bought as well and all ready to go. Brand new tyres on it too...brand new battery in the box just waiting to install. Send me a PM, I am looking for offers, my situation has changed and I am looking for the bigger bike...The same day I see the Africa Twin for sale someone wants to buy the exact same bike I have set up for riding...:)

How much for your one dude (im yet to sell the R1)

PM me please. I would like around $6800, not really flexible on the price as there has been a bit spent this last month :) Acerbis tank just installed, 23 litres, new fuel lines, brand new tyres just 500km on them. Oil and filter change, brand new pack rack installed. Battery is brand new in the box, haven't installed it yet, the old one is okay with more constant use. reg until Dec, warrant current as well. Runs sweet and only looking to flick it off as there is an awesome couple of bigger bikes I am after..

I still have fond memories of the 40,000+ kms I put on my 05 XT600E. Good bikes. Made a large mistake selling that and getting the R1100GS. While the 11GS was a good road bike it was too limiting when it came to adventure. Have since redressed that folly with the ultimate adventure bike the 640A :)

Good on ya Tony. Welcome to the adv scene!
Knew that getting a DR650 would just be too uncool when you come out with me and Ian. 3 matching bikes would be a bit too gay!:facepalm:
:sunny:Would've been a good weekend for a ride as well...ah well, soon!:scooter:
Somebody hurry up and offer this guy a great deal on a great bike :drinkup:

You'll be sorry :innocent:

You'll do so many miles that you will use up all your Brownie Points at home. They are a hard bike to get off :yes:

Enjoy the ride :scooter:
