    Cheap Dual Sport

    Just when I said no more motorcycles . I get a hankering for a dual sport.

    XL XRL DR DRZ XT KLR ect... Projects Ok. Not looking to break the bank since I will probably will hardly ride it like all my others. In fact, the cheaper the better. If its pre 2000 I dont need a title.

    Anyone?

    OK, I'll respond. The prices on used dual sports like the ones you mentioned are obscene.

    Meanwhile, here's some recommended reading --

    Great little bike from what I hear. If you can find one.

    I've been looking, not finding much, even the junk is 'way over priced.

    My latest bright idea: pick up a Ninja 250 for under $2K, add dual sport tires, call it my dual sport.

    My TW sold last spring for what I paid for it without advertising. The buyer stated there was one other for sale on the east coast.
