First topic message reminder :

If you had $4,000 to $5,000 to spend on a second bike what would you get.
1 rule, it has to be a different style to the Bandit.
The price may be adjusted later but thats what it is for now Wink

Yes mate, when they made me redundant owing to work related injuries. The injuries look like having put paid to any thoughts of paid employment, so they paid me enough to buy the Beemer without selling the other two bikes and as I can no longer drive I need some variety in my last few years on this Earth. The Missus is also not traveling too well so we plan to go out in style rather than save for a retirement we quite probably wont reach. The way things are going with this debacle of a Government, they will have jacked up the retirement age to 90 and my quack says a realistic prognosis is about 5 years which give me time to put another couple of hundred thousand kms on the bikes. That will be bike number 66 for me, a pretty full life in anyone's language.

Thanks for the leg work Reardo. I love the DRZ and the Husky looks like a old DR650.
So many options ............ Can't wait for some overtime!

I had a DRZ400SM and al I can say is boooooO! It was a heap of shit. I'd go that KTM 640 any day.

Mind you I sold the SM and brought the DRZ400E. Such a better bike. It's already broken my ribs Smile
