Been a while since I was on here - blame 8 rescue greyhounds, so little time for anything else, let alone bikes, together with the dreaded Brexit threads that boil my blood ....
Anyways, I've a 2016 Honda CB500X with very low miles, around 6,500 I think, bog standard (but can come with all sorts of stuff I don't/won't use that I never fitted, like chain oiler/heated grips/seat cover/soft luggage). I don't ride anything like as much as I did, some few HUNDRED (yes, you read that right!) miles in the last year, so I'm looking to sell or swap.
I considered giving up biking all together, but I know I'd have the occasional itch I'd still have to scratch, so it got me thinking. I'm considering a bike for the odd dash-or-bimble, either a 2 stroke endure (exc300 ideally) or a bobber (dragstar ideally). Long shot, but if anyone has one and is looking to change the other way, maybe we can sort something. Don't mind paying extra towards the deal. My CB500X is worth around £3,250 I'd estimate.
I'd also consider a van (small or medium, ideally scudo size) or a Zafira, to use with the dogs when I only take half of them out, instead of all eight, when I use my XLWB converted Renault Master camper, which isn't ideal for shorter trips.
So, if you've got out, or fancy just buying the CB500X, get in touch. I can provide full details of the bike and images if anyone's seriously interested of course. (image from google library but same as mine)

Me and Martin loved the greyhounds when we stayed with you in Germany, 'cwched' up on the sofa with me as we say in Wales
I can vouch for the van- it's an honest one, just like it's owner

Hi Paul, hope you're well, and Martin - yes, they are great aren't they? All the ones you met are long gone now and the eight we have are all in the last few years. Yes, I know the Welsh twang well - I was married to a valleys girl (Merthyr) for nigh twenty years! and spent many a time there. So cwched, along with ow be? and aghh, yak a vee and the like (forgive my spelling - that's how they sounded to me). Interestingly, cwched, as I heard it, isn't dissimilar to our own Northumbrian, bit like a fiess like a borst cooch. Gotta love our rich diversity of language and dialect here. Thanks too for the endorsement for Al's van.
Thanks g00ner, but if it's to be an enduro, it'd have to be a two stroke.
