Ok Charlie, you can't just post a pic like that without more info! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

Just picked up my (new to me ) Toy. Just Sold my 89 NX650 Honda with 29,000 miles for 1900 bucks. Bought my 2001 DR650SE with 8,330 miles for 1800 bucks! Not bad! also has few few aftermarket goodies like Corbin seat ETC.. looks kinda like this one. never seen dirt stored in Climate controlled building. http://www.koups.com/sales/suzuki/specs/2001/DR650SE.htm

Riding season is year-round here for the most part <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Sold my '92 Yamaha Seca 2 a couple months ago and picked up an '07 Hyosung GT650 that had been laid down for $1800. Just about done with fixing it up and am ready to ride!

So what's the story with the Hyosung bikes? I've never heard of them or seen them before. I googled what you said you bought, and it was sweet looking. Post up some pics...I'd really like to hear it running too...crack it open some. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Broke mine out over the weekend and took it for a ride. Love this time of year.

Hyosung is a long-time manufacturer for Suzuki in Korea, specifically the SV650/1000 models. They made alot of the SV parts until recently when they added motorcycles to their scooter lineup. Been importing to the US since '05. The GT650 is basically a copy of the early SV650, 650cc Vtwin etc. It's a great bike and I'm really enjoying it!

Need to get some pics with the new bars, stainless lines etc. on it. The clipons killed my old man back so I put some risers and bikemaster superbike bars on it, which then led to the stainless lines when the master cylinder line wouldn't reach on the new bars <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

The Yosh exhaust sounds awesome, here's a clip of someone else's:

Right after I posted my questions to you, I emailed my buddy that owns a bike shop. He said the same thing you did of course. Man, that's a cool bike at a killer price! What will you have in it total? Still gotta be a great deal! I thought my $600 '83 Nighthawk was a good deal. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Nice! I like the dual headlights. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Post some pics with the superbike bars installed, I love that look. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />

Sorry for the crappy cellphone pic but you get the idea My braided brake lines should be here when I get back from vacation next week, I'm ready to ride it!!

I sold all the busted stuff I took off the bike (got $30 for the dented tank lol) as well as some extras that came with it and I'm in about $2300 now. Should be able to get $100 or so for the Woodcraft clipons too. Blue book is $4750 so I'm pretty tempted to sell it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/oink.gif" alt="" /> I almost bought an '03 Kawi z1000 that needed some work last week but decided I would probably kill myself on a 130hp bike...

Got out for a ride around town, and the next day we got more snow. Its been snowing on and off since, and temps have been on the negative side (celsius) ever since so the KLR is back up on her stand. Talk is for nicer weather on the weekend, so we'll see...

Nice bikes above lads. Very nice. Definitely puts a fella in the mood to ride!

Here's a pic from last March, when the weather was much more agreeable than this year:
