Default My new bike!

Only the one photo at the moment.
Needs a good clean and some tasteful mods, but WOW. She's awesome

2 owners from new. the first a lady who did 3000 miles on her and then chopped her in for a 650 as the 1000 was too much. The second chap only did 500 miles in the last year as he went touring everywhere on his Varadero

Guy wanted £3.5k for it. Probably about the going rate?
I'm well pleased though not only with the low mileage, but the fact that it was from a dealer near me who remembers the woman who bought it and when she chopped it in, the guy who had it after that.
The only thing that dissapoints me is that it doesn't pop or bang on the overrun
