XR650L
« on: March 03, 2015, 02:25:43 PM »
I picked up a Honda XR650L from a friend who had it in storage for about 10 years. To say I got it cheap was an understatement. ($500) I actually did very little mechanical work and mostly just some cosmetic work. I took her on her first road test last weekend. Now I have that ADV bike I always wanted!

Great deal!  You cleaned it up nice.

That tank runs $200 on its own.
