It's not BAD...it's just not great at it. And the continual stops for fuel I'm sure got my ride partners slightly aggravated as we had to stop every 150-170km.Don't tempt me... now that you're doing longer runs I can see why you want something more suited to that - the Scrambler is not built for long distance.

The Reasonably Priced Used Motorcycles for Sale Thread
- Thread starter CafeRay
- Start date
So...that bike was up for sale in May...and it's still up for sale?
Having owned a 2019 Speed Twin (which I now regret selling and keeping a Suzuki GSX-S1000 instead ... what was I thinking!?) I agree but that was a 1200.
I love the Speed Twin 900 too which is more comparable to that Moto Guzzi but have yet to test ride 1 of those.

It's a tough time to sell a bike and not be disappointed in the return. Not just from a seasonal perspective either.
Making matters worse is you're selling or would like to sell a bike that appeals to a specific rider or has a narrow potential market.
I'm in the same boat. I love the way my KTM 1090 works and have set it up to suit my needs perfectly. When I ride it, I love it. When I'm getting on it, mounting it like a horse I'm not so fond of it. It's a 6 year old bike and it's just about time for a major service, but I'm comfortable doing everything but the valves.
I'm a chronic sufferer of different-bikeitis and flip through kijiji constantly. At least the KTM's paid for.

No, it is not. Sorry for creating a confusion. I tried to give you a reference point for how much a bike like yours with ~2k kms sold for a few months ago.
You might be interested in this one. I think it's the same price as the one posted, with a small fraction of the miles. Log into Facebook
I’m not in the market for a TT as I own a Multistrada. But show me one for even close to 4K and I’d find some reason to buy it.
I am not into Harleys, so one would be worth next to dirt “to me”. But saying so adds no value to a conversation about reasonable prices.
Oh buddy, if you're going to get upset every time people don't have a conversation on the internet the way you want them to, you're going to have a lot less fun than everyone else just speaking their mind and having a good time.
I’ve always been tempted about the adventure segment from Ducati. Gorgeous bikes but price is way out of my budget.
Saw a few nice older multistrada (?) but once again….not a baller so one bike needs to go so another can take its place.

There are some older Multis 1200 for similar prices as your bike. Last year I briefly rode one and sort of fell in love with the comfort. It felt so roomy compared to my motorcycle.

Saw this one in my ongoing hunt. Not a fit for me, but I think it's reasonably priced considering the mileage and the luggage:

That's a lot of bike for the money.
Thanks! Definitely looking for something like that...but Scrambler...

the 1000cc (up to 2009) were pretty ugly IMHO. I like the styling of 2010 and on.
I swapped bikes with some fellow riders (Jerry) on a late model Multi 1200 for a run up the 507. I found it roomy, very light, and it had good power - it was a delight to ride.
150hp so I would assume it goes very well!
Beautiful bike, but until the Scrambler sells...well it's just a pipe dream. I'm sure it's more fun / character than a VSTROM / VERSYS!
@Priller here you go! Buy it quick before I have to ask my wife for forgiveness…
