Had an adventurous trip on my KLX..56K Beware!
At exactly around 3am on the last Saturday morning we left for a place called Buttala which is exactly about 265kms away from Colombo (the capital of Sri Lanka.. Where I live).. My dad was leading in Vehicle and another of our vehicles was following me..
We left and on the way I got 171kms out of one full tank before I switched onto reserve. I rode another 30kms on reserve!! Pretty good actually..On usual rides get only about 130kms before I switch to reserve.. Bike performed great too!! Here are the pics.. On the way.. About 160kms away. http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...981325_384.jpg In Buttala after having some fun in the mud. http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...5981358_46.jpg My uncles XR250 Baja And My Klx. http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...981361_916.jpg http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81362_1212.jpg http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81364_1505.jpg Just riding http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81462_8115.jpg Arrived at the lake to have some fun! http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81463_8420.jpg http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81464_8736.jpg Having fun in the lake! http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81465_9049.jpg http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81472_1346.jpg http://photos-d.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81475_2343.jpg http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81476_2675.jpg http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81480_4049.jpg http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81481_4413.jpg http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81485_5853.jpg Burning through the water! http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81493_8766.jpg Playing with the defender too! http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81494_9134.jpg Giving the KLX a break! http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81495_9500.jpg Going deeper! http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81501_1792.jpg http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-...81502_2197.jpg Heres a video of me going through the water and I park the bike, then I show the cameramen lol.. Then at the last part he suddenly get excited because the ground where I parked my bike wasnt hard, the stand went through the ground and the bike tipped over and completely went under water! The airbox had about 2 litres of water and the carb had water in it too!! BTW I went so deep in the water by taking the two carb vent hoses and tucked into the hole in the side panel.. Never stalled.
