Selling my nice, old 86 XL600R. It has been a great bike for me but I decided to upgrade to a newer XR650L. I rode it all last summer... on the roads and on the trails. It even handled some single track stuff nicely. As you can clearly see it has been repainted. This was done by the previous owner. From what I can tell, the tank, exhaust, motor, and possible the side covers have been painted or touched up. It never bothered me, but I will include an original tank and the used, original blue seat cover if you want to restore it to stock. I pulled it out of the shed tonight and it started on the first kick! That is after a 5 month hibernation here in MN. The carbs were drained and the tank filled with stabilized gas, so I guess the winterization effort paid off. And it ran strong during a short test ride. It popped a little as I would let off the throttle to shift. It did that a bit early last year too, but it went away once I was riding it more frequently. It doesn't smoke or leak. It is ready to go... all the electricals work and the battery (stored inside) is fully charged and relatively new. The tires are a fairly aggressive tread, but were surprisingly good on the pavement too. Lots of miles left in them. It has current MN tabs through Feb 2016 and the MN DNR trail sticker though Dec 2016. And it has a clear MN title in my name. Everyone needs a nice thumper in their stable of bikes! Ride it as is! Restore it to like new! Or turn it into a sweet cafe race or street tracker! And now for all the other stuff... Shipping is your responsibility. Buyer pays for all shipping costs. I will happily work with your shipper to make sure you get your bike as soon as possible. A PayPal deposit of $500 is required within 24 hours of the auction ending. The balance I would prefer be paid in cash upon pick up... but I am open to full payment via paypal within 3 days.
