KTM Adventure 2004, all mot's and service records. 10700miles. Immaculate condition for age. KTM Tank bag, headlamp protector, twin vision spotlights, centre stand, touratec rear carrier, ortleib soft luggage. £3600 ..

IS THIS A FAIR PRICE?
IT REQUIRES OIL AND FILTER CHANGE.
CHAIN AND SPROCKETS ARE 4K OLD AND REQUIRES NEW TYRES
THE BIKE HAS DONE A MOROCO TRIP
APPEARS TO BE IN REASONABLE ORDER
WILL IT DEPRECIATE SEVERELY?

HAVING SOLD MY 990 RECENTLY (WHICH I MISS) I WOULD LIKE TO REPLACE IT WITH A BIKE I CAN USE DURING THE WINTER MAINLY FOR BACK LANE RIDING AND HAVING FUN.

ANY INPUT APPRECIATED ASAP PLEASE:thumb2
 
Stop shouting ;)

Good likes - grey HiFlo engines are better than black ones I hear

Change was about 2003/4

Very vibey, some say

Others don't

Most owners love them
 
SORRY, my ear piece is playing up!

.....thanks JB. I really enjoy winter riding but finding a fun bike for not a lot of money isn't so easy. For an hour or three I guess I could cope with the vibes.

Do I go £3200 for a bog standard 11k bike with only engine and pannier rails and owned by an enthusiast.

OR

£3600 with 4 previous owners, 11k, KTM Tank bag, headlamp protector, twin vision spotlights, centre stand, touratec rear carrier, ortleib soft luggage??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

God I'm a crap decision maker!

From memory it's very tall bike but I guess you have already sat on one by now.

Have you considered the 950SM, some really good ones around.
 
..thanks for that suggestion, will go and have a look around. I like the off road capability option so a jack of all trades is my pref.
 
Nippy Normans supply Touratech, Wunderlich, Desert Fox and many other makes of accessories.
