I have a question and want some opinions..
I have been given the offer to trade my Burg 400 for a Burg 650. Mine has about 2500 miles his has about 5500. MIne 2004 his 2003. He wants something smaller for his daughter to learn on. I'm trying to figure out if there is a reason why NOT to do this. When I bought my 400, I figured it was all I needed. I do love it.. and for what I use it for.. mostly local some day trips. and I plan on a few weekend trips this summer. I'm giving up better gas milage (gas prices are going to be a buger this summer) and a little cheaper insurance... I've heard such great things about both bikes.... The power of the 650 would be both fun and have it's practical side for touring. I don't want to give up something I'm satisfied with for that greener grass on the other hill... I'm half afraid thinking this is a " too good to be true" deal.. is there any problems that existed with the 2003 650 that I need to be aware of ? Oh.. and he wants $200 cash ( says this is his wife's "request")....
