KLR 650´s for sale

Hi,
My friend and I are currently making our way down the Western coast of South America. We are riding KLR 650´s and plan on making Tierra del Fuego by the middle of March! If anyone is interested in buying or knows where we can sell them, please let me know!! My bike is a 2000 and will have 15000 miles and my friends bike is a 1991 and will have around 20,000 miles. Both bikes have performed well the entire trip from New York State!! My bike is equipped with nerf bars and aluminum panniers. Thanks for any help!!

Dave W.

don't know if it is against policy to mention price, but if it is allowed, letting us know how much the bikes are would be nice.

absolutely no restrictions on mentioning price here, in fact it is recommended to simplify things for those who might - or might not if the price isn't right - be interested.

Hey,
my bike currently has 12,000 miles and I would like 3,500 for it. Simply because I have the nerf bars and panniers. They are nice to have for South America! My friends bike has about 20,000 miles and wants around $3,000. We are currently on the island of Chiloe, about 700 miles south of Santiago! We will be in Ushaia on about March 18th! Thanks for the interest!

Hi,

I would potentially be interested in both bikes. I will arrive in Santiago on 15th May if you are still around.

Where are the bikes registered? If registered in New York State, how would the transfer and registration work for UK residents?

Waz5,

been quiet for a while. Completely forgot to reply to you...Sorry.

5 April is to early for me to be in SA. I have been discussing possibilities with Power of Attourney with other people and it would be possible for you to sell your bikes even when you are not in country.

For me, I think I am settled for bikes!

Do you have a blogspot somewhere?

Cheers

Jens

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
