DR650 Pre '96 vs Post '96...
Hi,
I've been lurking on Hubb for a while, reading and dreaming but now that my situation has come together and I'm almost ready for an adventure I figured I'd join up.
I'm pretty keen on getting hold of a DR650 for an indefinate RTW trip but as I'm in the UK and the imports are out of my price range I've been wondering about the pre '96 models as there are plenty around.
What's the deal with these, can they be upgraded for sensible money to be as trusty as the newer models? What are the differences between them?
Failing this approach, is there anywhere else in Europe with a good post '96 Dr650 secondhand market?
Last resort I will travel to US/AUZ and kick of the trip from there...
It was just some romantic notion I had of seeing England off in the mirrors.
Cheers.
