Re: Pikes Peak UK

Yeah, but how much will you be riding it? You have to be going through withdrawals.

Re: Is a 2010 Multi S with 44,000 miles worth considering

Personally would take medium miles over ultra low as any issues would've shown and taken care of.

Re: WTB - MTS 620

I'm in the NW burbs and part of DRILL which I'd recommend, and hopefully will cross paths.

Re: Looking at options for a commuter

There aren't issues with the 10-12s any different from later models, and any that occurred should've been sorted out already. The 13+ have the skyhook suspension which some like but not necessary. Doing the 15k service if done by yourself (plenty of vids of process) will only cost you $200 for the ...

Re: 06 Multistrada 620, about to buy

Your asking the right questions. I tend to be more conservative in thinking, as I'm not a mechanic, but have been on this site for years. Ducvet is a well trained mechanic, so he can give you more accurate costs and possibilities of failure. Personally I wouldn't risk riding too far on old tires and ...

Re: 06 Multistrada 620, about to buy

I don't know, the 620 with no service, original tires, etc. seems like a money pit. I would not ride on 13 year old tires, nor start that engine until the belts are done.

Re: Potential new owner, 2011 MTS

If you have the aptitude, you can definitely complete on your own, and there's many threads on this site with info on how and settings. $1200 is about the low side at a dlr., but as I last did I found a local guy who did it for $350 + the belts I bought myself.

Re: First Bike 2010 Multistrada 1200s or 2012 Vstrom 650

My 2010 is my 2nd bike, and only had ridden for a year/5000 miles prior on a Shadow 600. It was scary for me to start, but such things as traction control and ABS saved my ass a few times. One thing though, my Multi has allowed me to become a better rider as it fits me well and puts me into proper ...

Re: www.strada-avventurosa.com for aircooled

Have you looked at http://www.altrider.com/ ? Not sure how much they have for aircooled, but pretty much got everything for my 1200 as they borrowed my bike for the IMS show and left it all on there.

Re: Eyes on the prize!

Welcome aboard, sounds like maintenance had been taken care of which any recalls/updates should've been done. You can check with your local dlr. to ensure that's true. Kinda weird that they didn't do valves when belts were done.

Re: 2010 1200ST low miles should I or not

Make sure all updates/recalls have been done. 2010 is a fine machine, but there are first year issues that should've been rectified by recall/updates.

Looks similar to the 1200's, but not sure if same.
