Isn't it a bit crosser rather than green lane machine? Not sure, suppose its not much dif to a CRM250 tho. I'd go for a DRZ for similar money.

Dont know really, they just come up. I have had two offers of DRZs at that money from people I know but I never bit. Your right tho it is hit and miss at that money. Maybe ask on the TBM forum.

Big prob maybe that its not registered. For any decent green laning there may well be road liaisons, so it needs to be road legal. Certainly is on all my green lane trips, a few miles of road so it will need (strictly) to be plated. Same for many rally's if you fancy those as opposed to enduros.

I didnt think it did :confused: Oh yeah (edit) it has in one of the pics. Odd one tho, a road plate rather than a little felxible one, but I guess just to show it is plated probably whips it off. Thats one thing to check tho that it is road registered.

yup..........

this is not ment to be a road legal bike,its been converted

,

it has no mot either, be careful with this

it only has a headlight, it will need a brakelight/tail-light & horn to pass the mot, it wont need indys

IMO if the police see/hear you on this bike you will get stopped. as its a 2-stroke,
