shocked you havent sold it yet
It's a buyers market right now, one of the reasons we are looking to trade up. You can easly haul this thing with that F150 and it will fit nicely next to the double wide and with 15" of lift you can haul it into the back county Open to offers.

I have replaced my Action Packer with a Caribou setup. Let me know if you want it. The price is $0, or I'll trade you for your rack pad. I'm in Kitsap County (Port Orchard), face to face only.

The bike is worth a shit load more than that.. but not looking to profit, just moving it out of the garage is all..

Needs nothing but a kickstand. Everything else is dialed in.. Runs awesome, tons of fun, plenty of power.

Located in Duvall..

Hey, uh Thanks. I think.
Not sure I'm ready to try the freeze on a set of NLA 4S headers, and I will be a vendor eventually. Filed the OBL-EIN forms last week.

Apologies all round for posting in the wrong thread.

I like this setup. I have a KLR650. Do you think I could do something similar to this? Did you use a full size Action Packer? Do you have any type of bracket or plate reinforcing on the inside? I just got my bike and could use some tips for fashioning a carrier.

don't know the year, but U-haul hitches work real good and are not too expensive...one that fits a 2006 Passat is $170.00.

They also do installations and not a bad job.

Problem is they won't do it if it comes up on their computers as "not recommended". You have to do it on your own. My SPG is the same way. Any standard 900 is capable of towing up to 3300## with a trailer brake. 1000## without. But the SPG, though it has a more powerful engine and better brakes, is "not recommended" for towing. Maybe because it is 1 inch lower than the others?

AWSHOUSE,
Find yourself a peterman. While there is only one, he may have a doplleganger near seattle.

Good luck!

WTB Tow dolly or car trailer

Bought one.

I need a car dolly to tow my kia to Ar. Could use a small car trailer also. Anyone have one that is cheap and close to Redmond I would appreciate a call.

Need it by Monday.

would like to be in the 4-600 range. Looks are not important just needs to be able to make 2000 miles without issue. I plan to sell it when I get there.


there are a couple on CL but, seem to be quite a distance and kinda High for what they are.


OR if someone has one that needs to go East I could deliver it to the new owner if it was in one of the states touching Arkansas.

WTB DR650 Stock Rear Grab Bars

I am looking for a set of stock rear grab bars for a 96+ DR650. I have an OEM Rack but just bought the Ebay BBQ rack and it requires the stock grab bars to mount it.

I also have a brand new never mounted Shinko 244 17 x 5.10 rear tire for sale. $50 delivered within the greater Seattle area.

What is this rack of which you speak? Are we talking trade here? I have an '09' DR do I have the rails. Depending on what this rack looks like I may swap???

This be the rack:

ebay link



So the PO put the OEM Suzuki rack on. This replaces the stock grab bars. I don't have the stock grab bars and the ebay rack requires the stock grab bars.

As luck would have it, a fellow ADVRider in GA has the nice purple ones to match my bike.

If you want a larger rack, the ebay rack gets great reviews.

I've had very good luck with trailer hitches from these people. It's worth taking a look at their site >>> http://www.autoanything.com/towing/61A3389A0A0.aspx
