Greeting,

I am in the process of buying a very lightly used 2011 DL650.

If you had to travel a good distance to see and pick up the bike (i.e. far away as no good ones are available locally), what would you do to ensure that the bike was honestly represented (i.e. pristine, never in an accident, original owner, broken in properly though it only has 300miles on it).

How could one verify such things sight unseen (aside from pictures)?

How are long distance purchases amongst unknown individuals managed to be fair to both parties?

Thanks and I am looking forward to joining the stromtrooper community?

If you're getting a funny feeling, go with it. There's usually a good reason for it. I'd forget the White Wee.

My suspicious mind is thinking that perhaps the bike doesn't actually exist......[no proof of sales invoice...hmmmm?]
