The reason that it's FOR SALE, is because it looks like I am "hanging-up-my-spurs" after 60+ years of riding/racing motorcycles.

In the straight-up Versys universe Eddie must hold the record for miles ridden on the Verseys 650....
103,6xx MILES on my '08, 62,790 KMS on my '09, and 91,951 KMS on the '15 = 199,751 MILES among three V650s...!

FWIW: an '03 Bandit 1200S aprox 40K kms; and an '04 KLR650 aprox 80K kms, so APROX. 74,560 miles, which comes to a TOTAL of 274,311 MILES on motorcycles, since I retired in '03, plus "WHATEVER" miles BETWEEN 1962 and 2003....

Been one 'helluva ride'...!
