Luke,
I expect it will be difficult to sell in Europe unless purchased by an overlander who is happy to keep the SA plates. I kept an SA registered KTM 640 Adv in London for 2 years, during which time I looked seriously at selling it, and decided against it due to the hassle. I would think that you would open up a much bigger market if you transfered the rego to a European country, UK probably being the easiest, and then sell it. I decided the only thing to do was to head back down to South Africa. I am also currently in Morocoo (Fes) heading south, so if you are still around lets catch up for a  .cheers

Shipping...
Luke, what sort of prices were you quoted for shipping it?
The prices we got seemed really reasonable (especially since you don't have to pay any duties) - we even considered shipping bikes over to SA for a holiday! I reckon, used bike prices the way they are in SA - you'd probably make more money selling it over there. Especially a KTM, cos they're a bit gaga over them!

I'm leaving Europe for ZA in 2-3 weeks time. I'll be happy to ride it down for you for a "rental" fee if you're still interested in the option. I have a 640 ADV which I'm about to load on a plane from the US out to Europe, but picking one up in Europe would be easier.
If that's something you'd contemplate, let me know. Cheers! Assaf

In Storage Malaga
Currently the bike is in storage in Malaga, Spain.
I would consider renting it out, what would you consider to be a fair rate?? Contact me on my email lukefarren@gmail.com. It may be a mater of days before the shipping agent picks up the bike, but i could cancel the shipping if we come to an agreement. The bike needs a new chain and sprocket and a service, all which could be organized in Malaga or near abouts. Other than that the bike is ready to go. -The panniers are on -Airoh S4 helmet in crate. - 2.5kg tent - Fuel stove - Other spares, front inner tube... -I have the tank bag with me here in Cape Town. Cheers Luke
