FOR SALE 2012 F800GS in Punta Arenas $7500USD

Hi all, I'm regrettably going to be selling my 2012 F800GS Trophy in Punta Arenas at the end of my current trip around March 20th. She's a great bike, and will have carried me over 60,000Km's by the time we are done. Everything that needed to be upgraded for a big adventure has been done to this F800.

The tires will be around 50% (Heidenau K60's) aftermarket seat for more comfort, auxiliary lights, It has Jesse Luggage panniers (very tough and secure) Handlebar risers (better offroad/standing up) expandable tank bag, upgraded suspension including the upper rear shock bolt brace to ensure that it can handle the extra weight without leaving you stranded with a blown and twisted shock, a 2 gal rotopak setup. The stator was replaced 15,000km ago, and it does have an aftermarket volt meter. Tomorrow I will be replacing the steering head bearings and the rubber shock absorbers in the rear hub. I have taken very good care of this bike and it is going to be ready to roll.

For the right price, I will include the GS-911 (reset service reminders, diagnose/test any computer issues) and include the priceless repair manual DVD. I would love to get $7,500 USD for it. Any questions? Please let me know! My time will be short to sell the bike since I will fly out of Santiago the 29th of March, which means the price will be negotiable! Cheers!

Yup, going as low as I possibly can go before having to suck it up and ride back north to Santiago instead of flying. PM me for details!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
