Happy to be here couldn’t pass it up.
Recently picked up a great deal on an 07 DL650. Great condition, 13,000 miles and a ton of farkels for $2500. Full factory Givi luggage and crash bars, heated grips, mastad bracket, aftermarket scream, center stand, fog lights, volt meter, fuse block, looks like beaver relay thing. Someone must have been an electrician or something wiring for everything is pretty awesome. New anakee 3s, great maintenance records and probably a ton of other stuff I havnt noticed. Bought the factory service manual from a Suzuki dealer on eBay for $40 and the clymer on amazon. Just picked up a seargent seat for $50 on local craigslist (almost as rare of a find as the bike itself). So far it seems like the perfect bike for me. I’ve had Harley’s, an XR650l, motocross bikes etc. This seems to check off a lot of boxes and saved me a ton as I was ready to buy a brand new Yamaha MT09. I ended up test riding one after I bought the strom and while I did like it’s pep, it wasn’t nearly as comfortable as the strom. I don’t need to ride wheelies anymore at nearly 40. Anyway great site. I had been lurking for awhile when I was looking at a few different storms. They intrigued me by their bulletproof reputation and low cost of ownership (depending I guess lol). Looking forward to being able to participate in the various threads.
