Hi

I’m just about to put mine up for sale... I’d like it to go to a good home.

13 plate. I bought it from local main dealer with 12 miles on it, 12 bikes went to Dave Thorpe Adventure Centre, he picked 8 and the other 4 went into the dealer network.

16076 miles, as I type, this will go up as it’s used daily.

Mods: Full Yoshimura exhaust. EJK controller. 13/42 Renthal sprockets, DRDSpeedo adjuster to keep speedo and mileage correct. New Michelin Sirac tyres.
Bash plate. Hand guards. Smaller mirrors.

EBC updated clutch plates and springs. HEL braided lines with CBR300 front master cylinder.

I have a notebook with date/mileage of everything that has happened to the bike, every drop of fuel or oil that has gone in has been noted.

I might have forgotten something, ask any questions. It’s never been down a green lane.

(I got mine new in 2016 but it's a 2015 model [with no abs] ) ?
Think it was launched with ABS in December 2016, I know in France it came a little later around Spring 2017.
Definatley my 2013 model doesn't have ABS but don't really miss it.
But really think it's a great little dual-sport bike.

thanks for that Will ... I keep thinking I waz dun,
getting a 2015 model in late 2016 for some reason (I think it was offloaded onto me after sitting at the back of the showroom for a year?) .. but, tbh I don't think abs would make a lot of difference to these soft brakes ... but would have been nice to to have had the choice?

I often think, crawling pathetically down a steep muddy slippy slope, "I wish I had abs on the front"
as I seem to be always (wrongly) gripping that front brake lever desperately but tenderly :lol:

@cone
Good question. There’s lots of mint very low mileage STOCK examples around. Quite frankly, the stock bike is err... lacking.

Mine - suspension aside, I’ve never taken it off road, so was capable for what I needed - is fully sorted.

I think it’s worth £3500 <prepares to be shot down in flames>

Whenever I look at classifieds I realise I might as well run mine into the ground. I do more miles in a month than some people do in years
