Hi there,
Testing the waters here before it goes on eBay / Autotrader. I really love this bike but its getting very little use due to a young family and new house etc. Seems a shame to have it sitting in the garage. I bought it Jan last year to commute on but have since bought a 2nd car (winter brrrr) so its getting a lot less use than intended. Great bike though and got me back riding after getting knocked off my Thundercat (RIP).
2006 Suzuki V-Strom 650
17,900 miles. Got most of the paper work but probably not FSH. Has ran fine for me over the last 18 months / 2.5k miles though.
New battery, rear brake pads and chain at last MOT (100 miles ago)
Just had an MOT at the end of April so that will be good until April 2018 (10 months).
It came with a colour coded top top box (but the previous owner removed the reflectors and it has a few scratches but works just fine when you need it). I also have some fabric Oxford panniers, tank bag, and topbox that will go with the bike if you want them. Two sets of keys. Haynes manual.
The bodywork is all in good condition. Some of the metal bits (footpegs, kickstand & centrestand etc.) have a bit of surface rust on that I intended to clean up but haven't got around too.
Some extras:
MRA Touring screen (HUGE improvement over the standard or so I hear)
Centre stand (Useful)
Heated grips (Oxford ones)
Hand guards (With scratches - previous owner)
Bash plate in black
Mudguard extender
USB port (Good for your phone if you need a satnav)
Good on fuel, runs well and very nimble. All consumables in good order, ready to go. A clean, straight tidy bike.
Genuine reason for sale.
I am just outside of Manchester in town called Glossop. Great riding!
£2,400.
