    XR650R

    Sold! My XR650R has got to go . I bought it to ride with a friend to Morocco but he sold his bike and bought a road bike.To be honest,that is not the only reason.The XR is an animal so when riding it it is too easy to break laws as it will pull wheelies in three gears (without using the clutch). I have not used it much since buying it but when I did I enjoyed it very much.

    2002
    Less than 13k kilometers
    MOT and Tax
    New (less than 100miles) oversize front disc and pads
    Good rear pads but new spares
    New clutch kit bought and to be fitted
    New graphics from America (B52 Bomber,nice) to be fitted
    New and expensive rack from America
    Bar risers
    Good tyres
    Good chain and sprockets
    Ali bash plate (sump guard)and original
    Spare side panels

    All in all,a very nice bike.Oh! I'm the third owner.Last owner did not have it long then bought a quad?*?*?

    Re: XR650R

    Thank you Andy.Kind words.I've since fitted the clutch,now it's even wilder.I'm collecting my VFR 750 ON Monday and unfortunately don't have space to garage two bikes,otherwise I would keep both.l love the XR650R.It takes me so close to death,it makes me feel alive.

    My intention was to ride the XR to Morocco but realized that the only sane way to do that (without six weeks to spare) would be to trailer it or take it in a van.It would do 100mph for 100miles in the desert (Baja rally style) but my bum is not really up to riding it that far on the road.I have a brand new decaled up Accerbis large tank,never fitted too. That will be sold separately.Possibly to the bikes buyer but not in the original price.It cost me a fortune to buy from America but a little bit cheaper than buying from a UK dealer.

    The decals on the large tank are very smart.Oh,did I mention that I bought a seat cover from America? It's fitted and looks real cool.I also bought from Australia,a clutch cover protection plate.Made from aircraft quality aluminium.Should help if the future buyer decides to lay it down?!?!

    I know folk like to see pictures (thank you Jonny Boxer) I've been so very busy,I have not had the time to fit the B52 bomber decals,so the tank (original tank fitted) looks boring.I would only like to show my girl at her best.If your visiting Devon,give me a call (invite to all),if your looking for a XR650R mine may be the one for you.No harm in looking.

    Anyways,going to get ready for work now.When I get some time I'll post pictures here,put an ADD on Gumtree,Ebay and maybe MCN.So if interested fellows,come and look.............................Jim.
