Buying Used Dakar: what to look for?
 

Hello folks,

Looks like I'm going to buy a Dakar this week. 2003 w/9000 miles, ABS, dealer maintained. Owner lives out of state, bike seems to be in great shape, but he'll take it to his dealer to have it checked for me.

Is there anything in particular that I should ask the mechanic to look for? (bike has also been ridden off road quite a bit).

Thanks,

t
