Hi Ken,

I have a couple of bikes, so no problem on that side regarding timing but I have a planned Holiday where I plan to be away from the 13th of July to the 25th of August, this could be a limitation but it seams that I may get my vacation canceled.
Do you have a number I can call or a skype account? Google Hangover would do it as well.

Best regards,
Joe

If not, I could offer Africa Twin or CX500, in Germany, close to Frankfurt. My dad was a cop, he can find EVERYTHING you need to know ; )
Let me know.

Hi Ken
I posted before you on the bike swap page re looking to swap my F650 (800 cc twin) in NZ for a bike in Australia just for ten days in late June. No-one has replied so I thought I'd ask if you are interested in renting for that period? Hiring an F700 costs around $136 per day including insurance. My brother and I (two mature and responsible guys) are looking for two bikes suitable for touring. Thanks for your reply. Rick
