I've been riding XR650R's for the last decade or so I confess I've lost track of everything else out there.
Plus, been away from SA so not sure about the ins & outs of what's available here, what's good and what sucks.
Now the loony days are over, looking for for a sensible cheap/reliable 600-ish thumper for me and wife to tootle along farm roads and the occasional trip into town 2 hrs away. Tight budget, R25k range.
Kind of thinking along the lines of an old-skool 80's XT600 tenere.
Is there anything else in that category I should be looking at - similar pricing / durability? Older KLR? DR? Are they ok for 2-up?
I've owned plenty XT500 and 650R so kickstart-only is ok.
cheers
