@jcstokes
Thanks for the tips. I noted all those things. Good to know even if I don't buy new and instead buy the 2012. Thanks.

Here's the status of my bike search:
- Going to look at a 2011 with 9K miles this Saturday
- Waiting on the owner of a 2012 with 3K miles to get his replacement title from CA.
I've also spoken (or e-mailed) with owners of a couple other used LS650s, but nothing came of those forays.
I will say this, this forum makes me continue with my search for a nice used LS650 -- thanks to all. I may not end up with an LS650, but it won't be because of this forum. <thumbs up>

Another point, which the techies may correct me on, if the 2012 is ex California, it may have additional emission equipment.

Thanks for the heads up. I may start a new thread with that question . . .

You mean a bike from The Socialist Republic of California?
Been there many times, beautiful place, but I can't afford to live there. No sense of humour about taxes. :'(

I lived in Monterey CA for a year while in the USAF. Beautiful. Wonderful m/c rides south on Hiway 1 to Big Sur and farther, to San Luis Obispo. I vowed then to someday live on the ocean -- well that didn't pan out.

Looked at the 2011 yesterday morning but that deal fell through. Also, I've been looking at another long-time Suzuki model, the DR650. I may go that route instead of the LS650.

DesertCat,
That area is one of my favourite parts of the country. Absolutely gorgeous.

OK, I still haven't purchased an LS650 so I will bid you all adieu until I do. I don't feel right hanging here without an LS650.
This is a great site and I hope to return . . . with a Savage.

DesertCat,
You are welcome to hang out even if you are a bit of an imposter.

The DR650 would solve your 34" inseams problem , and supply a few more ponies to play with. Heck ! I'd like to have one to play with .
