Hello

Did you buy a bike in the end??

I have just posted my one for sale ... with some hesitation TBH

Looking at a 690 but it will cost me a ton to add the necessary parts to make it travel-worthy like the XT

Not sure why the link was posted - but since we are here ....

That bike is a bit newer than mine but .... it has over 36,000 miles on it and no way near the same spec (ie not travel ready or off-road fit)

On top of that look at that scabby engine which is a common problem with these bikes

Mine has a few flaws on the engine cases (both sides) but it is miles better than that one

Thanks for making mine look as good a deal as it actually is !!

The one that I originally posted is now sold

It had less than 1500 miles and was an 08 I think

He was asking Β£3500 and it looked like new - However it had no extras and it is no longer available
