Bought one twelve years ago to recondition & flip. Unfortunately, critical parts were unobtainable even then. For example, I  was only able to unearth one head gasket in the entire country; despite the fact the same engine was still being sold in Europe at the time. No notion from the ad what this one may need, but be sure you can get it before you get it.

Nice smooth little engine.

I didn't know that they had an automatic tranny in the transalp.

You can get the new Africa Twin with a DCT automatic. Dont believe that the old TransAlp ever had an auto...
