Ok, so Ive been thinking . . . specially after Dux's advice . . .
I bought the XLV to make a quick buck ( :imaposer, . . yes yes Lecap, I remembered your advice too . . eepwall:
Ok, so as soon as the XLV is sorted, Im gonna sell it and then I need to make a choice.
The limit here is $$$, dont want to spend more than R50-55k, finish!
What do I want to do?
Just some nice adv riding, gravel routes, tar, pillion perhaps 10% of the time, not into enduro and mx at all.
Low maintenance and cost factor a prerequisite, dont you think?
There is a lot to choose from, like:
Used, XT660, DR650, 1100/1150GS, KLR650 or perhaps the new XR650L? What else?
Which one is the lowest of them all? Not a deciding factor though. I rode my GSA quite capable after the seat was cut away by 20mm or so.
So gooi some raad there dogs pls! :mwink:
Ok, so the thing that i Want to do is : tour tar and gravel with Muis, my pillion, low speeds, no enduro or neervalpaadjies, thats why you okes adviced me according ly, hence my new liking in a TA.
But see my last post and my Q is what if I raise the amount to R75k? For that I can buy a NEW TA or a used 1200GS!!
CHOICES CHOICES! :drif:
