Do any of the following sound like you?
"I want to rally but it's too expensive"
"I want to rally but navigators are annoying"
"I want to rally but roll cages are for pansies"

Well, congratulations, here's your vehicle! A fresh off the truck from Black River Stages (not even washed) 2000 DRZ400e RallyMoto Bike. It has all of the following:
-Kick and electric start (redundancy is reliability!)
-Awesome LED lights
-Trailtech Vector computer w/ handlebar controls (odo, speedo, clock, etc. Works really well as a rally computer)
-Rollchart holder, first aid kit, triangle, etc... everything you need to be rally legal
-Kenda Trakmaster tires (1 rally old) with nearly indestructible IMS ultra-heavy tubes
-Single rimlock front wheel, dual rimlock rear wheel (you can ride 15 miles on a flat rear tire, I have tested this)
-4.5 gallon Acerbis tank
-Seat concepts "tall" seat (you butt won't fall asleep on transits)
-WER steering damper (so you don't die when you land a yump all crossed up)

This has been a super reliable bike for me, but it could use some going through- at the very least, a carb rebuild and a look at the wiring is in order (it turns out that "waterproof" is not "80mph in a torrential downpour proof").

The "fresh off the truck" price for this monster? $2000, including everything you need to rally it other than your personal safety gear. Trades for rally car parts and other dual sport bikes considered.

No interest? I guess it's time to clean it up and throw it on craigslist.

If you had posted this a month or so ago, hell yeah I would be interested. Unfortunately, I just bought a DRZ400... and even more unfortunate, is not in as good condition as yours for the same $$ and and yours is already set-up for what I want to do (basic trail riding).

Hell... if you can wait a bit for my bank account to recover from shed building and Mini repair, I'd buy yours and sell the one I have as it would save me a berk-load of time and effort.

Trade for 2008 Husqvarna SM610 plus cash on your end?

How much cash are we talking? Lots of want for that bike, but probably can't afford the difference at the moment.

For GRM I'd say $1500 on top. We may also be geographically challenged as I'm in the Chicago area and you're... Not?

I'm in eastern PA, so we are indeed geographically challenged. If the extra money suddenly appears (possible, I do have a few things for sale) I'll let you know and maybe take a roadtrip.

If you strike a deal and need someone to transport I have a lot of vacation time I need to burn.
