Tank is way too small mate....but nice bike, that has been there for yonks? Wonder what is wrong with it...
The Southern bro's have successfully talked me out of the Tenere...
Been thinking about putting some dough into the DR and blinging up exhaust, maybe get the carbs, valves done and new feet.....Nothing wrong the Big... Will a DR650 or similar fit onto the Big? Maybe a old GSXR, lighweight?

This is nice....a better bike than the XR, XL maybe?

Small tank though, really small...

Hi Struan, many thanks for the offer mate....This morning Ryan offered and I dunno whether he can get out, but he was certainly looking for an excuse! I think it is cabin fever....
I am awaiting some more photos from the guy but he has offered me WOF, $2000 to the door here in the Waikato and he says there is a lot of interest. It could be a goodie or a pile of 'doggie do' as Jatz says...
If you wanna be nosey mate, head out for a ride....have a look, by all means....See what makes it tick..

Put a Versys 650 motor in the big.

Cabin fever alright but not going to happen sorry. Had things to do yesterday and we are shifting rooms around today. Sorry about that.

No worries Ryan. I have further looked at some more photos and basically don't need another capable adventure bike....Thanks Struan, Eddie for leading me up the sensible path...Although, these same two have umm, a couple each...
