Suzuki V-Strom Dl650 Blue39546 miles (I am still riding so this will increase)New heated grips (the old ones stopped working)brand new genuine rear shock at 38500 miles Michelin Road Pilot 3 tyres (sticky rubber)huge top box. big enough for 2 full face helmetsMOT expires on 30/8/2015 (willing to put a fresh 12 month test for ?100 above the auction price)Test pilots welcome with a cash deposit (crash it and you have bought it)THE BAD BITSI have used this bike as my only ride year round for the last five years. nbsp;expect to see a bike that's been exposed to the winter salt and rain. The Scottoiler is working however the short tube at the end of the delivery hose is missing. (these are available here on ebay). When I purchased this bike it had been dropped at 30mph and the guys wife made him sell. I intended to have the scratches painted but they never bothered me enough to take it of the road for that long ( I get cranky when I cant ride). THE GOOD BITSThe riding position is perfect for new riders or riders looking to take pressure off their back and wrists. It's also great for winter riding. sitting upright with wide easy reach bars and a large adjustable screen. It benefits from knuckle guards and heated grips (the heated grips were replaced at the same time as the rear shock and get hot enough in the highest setting to be uncomfortable through winter gloves. )Long range spot lamps mounted on the forks that turn night in to day. (seriously they are damn bright). It's not only a winter bike but is fantastic fun on the back lanes too. the top speed of about 125mph means cruising on the motorway at 70mph is like sitting on a sofa and then playtime on the b roads is great. ( It has taken an hour to get home some days because I was having so much fun)The rear shock has been replaced with a new original suzuki shock costing almost ?500. Pipercross performance foam air filter. Oil and filer every 6 months and service every 12 months.
