Hello all,
Just putting a feeler out there to see if anyone would like to check out my 2010 DR650SE I'm about ready to sell. Here's the story:
Link to Trade Me ad
- Bought @ 36000kms. I was 3rd owner (have the NZTA doc to show that). Toured the country on it last year. I'm Canadian and my working holiday visa is expiring so I'll be leaving the country in a few months and have to sell.
- WoF expiry 25/10/2018 (did it a month ago)
- Rego expiry 25/09/2018 (and you know how expensive regos are!)
- New chain/sprockets @ 50000 (have invoice)
- Brand new Pirelli MT90s were put on last week (have invoice)
- Center stand (not a stock feature)
- Skid plate (aka belly pan)
- Heated grips
- FMF Q4 exhaust. Just yesterday I went to Cycleworks and had Damon make a custom baffle to keep noise legal but same grunty sound and performance
- Good quality side and rear luggage racks
- Givi top box (think helmet + jacket + a few other things)
- Cortech saddlebags (these exapand nice and wide)
- Barkbusters
- Artrax handlebar risers
- Sargent seat (comfortable!)
- Lock (attach to rotor)
- Tank bag
- Valve timing just checked
- If you want it - A large Hunting and Fishing waterproof bag along with mesh netting to hold it, and some rachets to keep everything in place
- I've done regular oil changes, kept new chain clean and lubed, regularly cleaned/oiled air filter
This was my 9th bike and my first dual sport. My next bike in Canada will be dual sport again - probably the same DR. Yes, a badass Bandit 1200 is fun, but this thing can do anything and go anywhere, and after touring all of NZ during what seems to have been one of your worst years for weather, it can obviously handle a road trip too. I started on Shinko SR244s which were pretty good all around, but these MT90s are just beautiful - glad I didn't cheap out this time. 70/30 on/off road. Check out the reviews - they're great for the DR.
This was my original post on this forum before I came to NZ (the picture links are broken). I'm glad I chose a bike over a campervan.

It has one of those "$6" DIY windscreens installed, but it has a small crack and my girlfriend put a badass transformers logo on there. I can remove it first if you'd like - unless you have a thing for Optimus Prime...
I'm currently near Wellington headed to Auckland area for a week or so. After that I'll be near Rotorua (unless you buy my bike in Auckland first!). I leave Wellington tomorrow heading north, in case I should stop somewhere for an interested party.
Let me know what you think. I'm looking for $4,500 ONO. I think that's a fair price based on what you'd pay for a new DR, what's out there right now, the rego/wof status, as well as all the extra it comes with. But by all means if that price isn't fair please let me know!
Cheers,
Ryan
