Guys... in May I cooked the engine in my car,and I'm now looking at a healthy whack of bucks to replace / rebuild it.
I'm putting out a feeler to see what interest there would be in my bike; details as follows
2004 Transalp 650
Approx 75000km
Piug touring screen - spare original screen to be thrown in as well
Touratech pannier racks and (I think they are) 32l boxes
Touratech crashbars
Givi topbox (just a bit too small for a helmet)
DNA re-usable air filter
X-ring chain and sprockets replaced +- 4000km back.
Fork seals and neoprene fork covers replaced about 4000km back
Cigarette lighter socket fitted to "dashboard"
Front tyre reasonable / Rear tyre would have to be replaced soon
The bike is old and used but has been serviced regularly. There are a few small scuff marks on the tank, from a tank-bag, and one or two scratches on the crash-bars and fairing, from where the bike fell over. The seat has a small tear (1cm) where my boot hooked on it, and there are a few small cracks on the one front edge.
I'm looking in the region of R35 000, but this is slightly negotiable. I would prefer to sell as a complete unit, and not strip the crashbars / pannier frames etc from the bike.
If there is serious interest I'll post some pics, but right now I'm trying to feel the market. (Also need to wash the bike :biggrin: as it's a bit dusty right now)
Hell, a diesel engine is expensive to rebuild...
