I am just back from shopping at Rimping Meechok. Saw a bike advertised on the board near the checkouts. It is a 2006 Suzuki DR 650 with extras such as a 17 front wheel, a supertrap system and a bigger bore header pipe. It also says it has a 40mm pumper carb. The ad says that all the original parts are included and that there is a 21 inch rim and spokes, so I imagine the 17 inch was laced on to the original hub. The ad also says that 200,000 baht has been invested in the bike and the asking price is 95,000 baht. I can't remember all the details except the ad was posted on the 6th July and the bike is farang owned. He also claims 50hp and a rather surprising weight of 120 kilos! There is a photo of it and it certainly looks like a 2006 model ( blue tank ) which I believe weigh about 147 kilos with all the road gear. Anyway it may be of interest to someone. There was no mention of it being plated but I suspect not at that price. There was no name to contact, but just a phone number, 0872162118.
