New Toy for my holidays.
 
Just paid a deposit on something to keep the SV company in the garage! :D

Will collect it this week

Thanks for xXBadgerXx for all the information about the bike and the seller, that made the sale a less stressful experience.

Will be kitting it out with hard panniers and a top box, and taking it down to Portugal via the Plymouth - Santander ferry in around March time and doing a few days riding mountain trails with a mate. Plan to make that at least an annual trip, if not twice a year. Otherwise it's going to be my everyday bike for commuting and trips into town and perhaps some light green-laning.

It's a 2002 XT600E on a 52 plate, with 8300 miles on the clock and FSH.

I nearly fell off my chair when you mailed me asking if I knew the bike locally ............... Know it , it parks next to mine sometimes and the guy works with me as well . The power of the Org eh . Seriously considered this myself but could not justify it . Glad you are sorted on it . Shame you have to pick it up , I was hoping you were gonna ask me to ride it over for you ;) .

Enjoy it Col , it`s in bloody good nick and a nice looking bike .
