Actually, I was, but the original poster, Hailingfromcork is in Utah, who I forgot actually started this thread, LOL, which is why I was referring to you. You definitely want dual sport tires no matter which bike you go with, birdmove. I went to the local Honda dealer here in Yuma to get a few links taken out of my chain, and they had the 250L on the floor--very nice but quite expensive.Quote:

First, I'd have to buy plane tickets both ways to see the bike. Then, if the seller was willing, have him deliver it to the barge company on Oahu (I think that's where the bike is?). I'd guess $400-$500 to barge it to Hilo. Also, many craigslist sellers don't want to deal with selling off-island. Also, you have to watch for other things. Such as, I've seen quite a few ads for a "Honda" scooter, let's say. But I can plainly see that it most certainly is NOT a Honda, but a Chinese scooter, and they are trying to get Honda prices for it.
The DR200 is on the big island, Captain Cook
could be a typo with Kailua when it may be Kainalui?
actually Kailua is on the big island too as Kailua Kona
My mistake. I'd thought that one was one I'd seen that was on Oahu. Captain Cook is near Kona on the big island.
