Dual Sport Bikes

[He Man]

I see. I think the prices are quite stable when there's a influx of bikes on the market. I rather have more options than having great deals on bikes setup otherwise. Also, being in the NYC area, most bikes are street oriented and I'm far more likely to buy a used stock than a good deal supermoto setup. Either way, I hope you're right about April. My garage needs a project.

 the 2007 bike owner backed out of selling it. Maybe i should look far far away and consider shipping...

cough... Xr650l Cough....
I freaking went to NC to get  a sweet deal.  Its seems here they are few and prices are high. Though I did see a 84 xr600 go for 700 or less with carbs needing work. dc

I found another 2006 10k miles bone stock for $2900.

but the 2003 30K dr650 dude is offering to sell it to me for $1300!!!  thats a big difference in price that can really bump up the motor!

He Man - I'm in western NC, in the mountains, right at the south end of the Blue Ridge Parkway.

The good thing, if the $1300 DR turns out to have issues, there is a HUGE knowledge base and plenty of replacement parts available.  It's mostly unchanged for a number of years.

A DR650 is on my short list for next bike.....good luck finding one!

how much is a replacement motor for a DR650?....maybe it is worth it based on buying a 2nd motor right out of the gate....even if just to have at the ready!

already tried this, i rather build up my own than buy one, but the motors are non existent.

this may be for 2 reasons

1) when they fail, they fail to the ponint where they are not worth recovering
2) they dont fail often.

Still have 5 brand new 2013 DR650's here in the Irvine shop.

That seems odd, are you nitpicking at issues on the bikes and trying to lowball the price?

I don't think it's him. 

I've been through the same thing and I'm not that picky.

It might be the season?

It might be the season?

I think so personally....

[He Man]

Heres my bare minimum requirements

2006+ DR650 in any color.
Target mileage and price, 5k @3200, 10k@2800. Bone stock. Farkles will be base on if they fit me or not. Obviously im not going to buy a $4500 DR650 supermoto mod even if its worth it. Im going to spend so much time trying to sell half the stuff.

Things that make me not want to buy it, dirt and rust all over the bike.

thatsa bout it.

i was on bikefinds.com and only 30 DR650s are being sold across the country! thatsi t!
