Hi everyone... I just bought a 2006 KLX 250S with 1,000 miles.

A few questions... any help is appreciated!

-where can I get aftermarket radiator shroud decals for a different look?
-where does everyone keep their reg and insurance papers?
-can I lower the suspension? How?
-What is the best bag to mount to the rack for storage?
-anything I should do to fine this machine?

Thanks in advance!

Yes there are lowering links, and you can drop the fork tubes a bit. As far as what to mount to the rack, this is my setup. Also a small tank bag is the bomb! The case is the Pelican 1200, easy to mount.

 

An 06 with 1000k. Wow, what a find. Quick question, does the speedo look like it was tampered with? LOL. Sorry, just referring to a previous thread about odometer tampering.

Welcome to KLX ownership. They are a great bike. Enjoy!

 

Oh and front fender mudflaps are all the rage......at least in 1974...LOL

 

Here is is...

 

Looks good. My 2009 came with a bolted on little bag on the rear fender in place of the rack on the 06/07 model. In that bag I have a zip lock containing insurance and registration. I wouldn't be afraid to zip tie that zip lok bag to a place on the frame somewhere to be retrieved in the rare case that you get pulled over.

My bigger issue is carrying my wallet with license and cash. I don't want to put it in my pants pocket for fear it will push out. On real rides I have a butt bag with many tools and plenty of room for the wallet. In that butt bag I also keep an expired driver's license for identification should I become dead.

Deej, do you take that thing on big road rallies like the governor's run in Kitsap?

 

So thats what mine used to look like.....LOL

 

 

Eric....you monkey!!! LOL

 

No not really, I did a poker run back in 2006 and then I took a trip up to Vancouver Island. Here is the report on that trip. Was a lot of fun and ended with 700 miles.
