Mine's a 2002 and I'd rather stick wasps up my 'gearbox' rather than get a new one!
There is wisdom in the devil you know!

hmm I know.. the only problem with that is that ... there is no Dakar available in Rio. There is not much choice in term of travel bikes here unless you are a 6 feet something giant!
SO still wondering about the G650GS.
The Honday XRE300 is superb... but way to high for me... and as for lowering the bike, it would be trivial in the UK, but nothing is ever obvious or easy in Brazil 
Especially if you do not speak well the language (NO ONE speak anything BUT portuguese!) or know where to go or who to contact!
Cheers,
