I have a Bajaj Pulsar 180cc for sale in Chile around the end of February/beginning of March.

It is (a bit) faster than the 200cc chinese bikes. So quite comparable. Already with offroad tires, a great luggage rack and 2 35L side bags. In good condition, currently having a bit less then 15000k on the clock. So ready to travel!

You ask for a Peruvian bike, but north of Chile is not to far (I guess).

We want to sell it near Antofagasta half february (just before Oruro Carnaval) or the beginning of march (when we come back from Uyuni)
If you are interested to buy these bikes, don´t hesitate to contact me on my mobile or mail

200cc bike in northern Chile

Hi James,

I have a 200cc bike for sale in Arica, Chile - about 2 days away from Cusco. It's a Euromot GXT200 (a Chilean plated bike) - 200cc, great fuel economy (220kms for 9L tank), equipped with hard panniers, and complete tools you need to fix etc. There's also some spare parts, like innertubes, an extra sprocket set, wetbag etc.

The bike Plus tools plus parts = $1300US

I've got more information here: http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...ale-peru-59980

Pity - I was in Cusco in Nov trying to sell it too!

There's quite a lot of info on the Euromot GXT 200 on Hubb - if you want more in depth info check out Tenebra's reply on this post: http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...-reviews-52842

I originally bought the bike from him and so his experience relates to this specific bike.

Let me know if you're interested

Cheers
Susan

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.
