Benelli bj600gs for sale Beijing

I am moving back to Canada so I need to sell my motorcycle.
Details:
2013 Benelli BJ600GS
26,500 KM
fully legal with Jing B public plate.
Insurance and inspection valid until 2017
asking 25,000 RMB or best offer.

Recent maintenance:
New OEM drive chain and sprockets
New imported NSK bearings in rear wheel
New front brake caliper
New right fork assembly
New air filter, spark plugs, engine oil and filter, coolant
lots of life left on tires:
Front: Metzler Tourance NEXT
Rear: Avon Trailmaster

Comes with:
rear luggage rack and aluminum side boxes
performance exhaust (in a box - removed because it was too loud for my neighborhood)
Many miscellaneous tools and accessories, helmets, etc (I'm leaving so don't need the stuff)
Blue book, Green book, original fapiao, all the legal paperwork.

Notes:
being a 2013, it does not have the overheating problem found on earlier models.

I bought it from a forum member in April this year (2016) and have driven it 12,000 km. I have found and corrected any bugs (like the leaking front fork, sticking brake caliper).

I added a rear luggage rack and aluminum side boxes. This is very useful for getting groceries etc, around town. The mounting system though is not designed for extended touring fully loaded on bumpy Chinese roads.

I am located in Yanqing county about 80 km NW of the City. The motorcycle is currently in a repair shop in Beijing waiting for the imported wheel bearings to arrive. So it would be available to inspect or test drive in the city on the day I pick it up (possibly Friday, November 25).

Here are some older photos. I will have to wait till I pick it up from the repair shop to post newer photos. The only difference is that that I( have replaced some of the plastics so now there are a couple of black panels that are not coated in grey vinyl like the rest of the bike. Also these photos show the race exhaust but now the bike has the original exhaust back on.

Bump. Spring is here and my friend is now listing this bike on zhuanzhuan.com, 58.com and taobao. If you are interested, let me know and I'll put you in contact with Jeff.

I was originally asking 25,000 RMB but have since learned the going rate for this model/year/mileage would be about 23,000. So, best offer still applies.

I'm permanently back in Canada now but the bike is stored at Jeff's house in WangJing (North-East Area of Beijing between 4th and 5th ring roads).

Bill, What plate was it?

It's Jing B public. so only a bill of sale needed to transfer ownership. If you want the plate registered to self, that would involve contacting the company the number plate is registered to. (an insurance company up by the resevoir in Northern Beijing area)

Hi Bill
Good to hear you are still alive.
Good luck with the sale.
The other day came across this Chinese ride on a Benelli bike loaded up.
Can't be a bad bike if the Chinese are using it for touring?

I just can't understand why people need to carry so much shit. My wife and I lived off a motorcycle for two months and carried half that. :confused1:

Because he is Chinese and thinks he knows best ? :lol8::lol8:

If you want to go motorcycle adventuring first try cycle bikepacking or backpacking so you can figure out what things you really need to bring, otherwise this can be the outcome! :rolleyes1:

Hi,


Is the bike still available?
Few questions (bear wth me, new in BJ ;) )

How many years remaining on the 11years lifetime of the plate? (Still no way to renew it after right?)
such a big deal if I drive with a Jin B downtown (I work in Guomao) or is it tolerated like Hu B in downtown Shanghai?
How difficult is it to transfer the paperwork to myself from a public plate? Why would the original company /owner help out after all?

Thanks

T.

is it not 13 years?
regardless of that point, the life expectation of a rider in China is only about 2 years if your lucky so I am sure the bike will outlast you IMO.

Yes the bike is still available. My friend tells me a Chinese guy came to look at it today and was quite interested - but has not bought it yet.

It was first plated in 2013, so it has used up 4 years of its life - however long that may be now.

I hear that one can often get away riding a b plate in the restricted area, but that there are times when they crack down. I would not do a daily commute. I lived way out in yanqing county so never drove it within 4rth ring Rd.

As for transferring ownership - I forget the requirements but it's not easy for a foreigner. I'll find the post from mjh that explains how the a and b plates work in Beijing. It is different than Shanghai. Public b plate is legitimate.

I'll pm you the phone number of the guy selling it for me

Looking forward to read this post you're speaking of, did some research on the forum couldn't find it...
