Trade '11 Kawi KLR650 for RRC or DI?
#1

I have a 2011 Kawasaki KLR650 with less than 350 miles on it.
It belonged to one of my clients who bought it, rode it once, then parked it. It sat for a couple years then he offered it to me as payment for a job. I took it, but found I don't ride it (it had about 20 miles when I got it) since I have a couple Triumphs that take care of my bike needs.
I've had it about a year and all I did was put in a new battery and ride it a little. It's not really my sort of bike.
I'll be putting it up on Craigslist sooner or later for $4200 but what I'd really like to do is trade it for an RRC or DI. Preferably a truck built for wheeling, so upgrades like HD axles, driveshafts, lockers, bumpers and armor, lift, tires, winch, etc are more important to me than cosmetics. I'm looking for a Rubicon rig more than an overlander.
Could go +/- with cash for the right truck.
I'll be gone this weekend but will get some pics of the bike when I get back.
I'm located in NorCal but may be willing to travel or ship.
I'm not on the forum every day, so the best way to reach me is directly through email zelatore1@gmail.com

PIcs. Gotta have pics.
I don't know if the hand guards are standard, but they appear to at least be Kawasaki. The crash bar I think is aftermarket but again not sure - I'm pretty sure it was added to the bike.

It's not perfect. There are some scuffs on the left side. I don't know if it was dropped; if it fell over in storage; or if some of the crap piled up around it for years fell on it. Since there are no marks on the Here are pics-
Left handgaurd. This is the worst place on the bike, though to tell the truth I didn't notice it until today when I got the bike out to wash it!

Left front upper fairing. This was either done before the crash bars were installed or by something falling on the bike - there are no marks on the crash guard and you would hit it before getting to this spot in a tip-over.

Left rear plastic. This pic actually makes it look worse than it is I think. Most people would walk by and never see it.

No scrapes on turn signals, pegs, controls, etc, so if it was dropped it was at a walking pace. I know he didn't ride it because he realized it was too big for him after getting it - he really wanted a dirt bike so he just parked this. Hard to imagine, but for a guy like him buying this was about as much of a financial commitment as me deciding if I wanted to upgrade from a tall to a grande at Starbucks.
