New Rider - Oxfordshire
« on: January 10, 2024, 19:41:36 »
Hi there,

I'm Chris, just passed my test in December and looking for a DL650 V-strom for my first bike. I've test ridden one and liked it for my tallish stature, so am now on the hunt.

Cheers!

Hello Chris and welcome. There is a cheap and well looked after bike on this very site, have a look in the for sale section. I'm not the seller and haven't seen the bike but I would have it as a first bike.  :welcome2:  :thumb:

crazyhorse is the seller.
