I stopped by Engle's and picked this up. Now I'm ready to ride it.
It's an '09 with about 30k on it. The six speed is nice, shifts more like my Husqvarna, and way less of a step between gears than my R1100. Feels lighter, the book says about 30 lbs. Cant wait to get it dirty.
Without the luggage...

No kidding! I am still puzzled on how you can put that many miles on a dual sport bike and have it look that pristine. This a very nice bike!katbeanz wrote:That is one beautiful machine! Congrats!

I think those miles were on the street. I kinda like bikes that aren't shiny any more but I'm looking for crash bars anyway. The bash plate looks a little wimpy to me as well.....

Looks nice! Seems to be a cushy looking aftermarket seat on there as well.
