wow, how can the dealer sleep at night knowing he sold you a bike with no seat strap lol. nice ride.

 

hahaha, a miniature ninja with a huge radiator! Congrats on the ride,

 

I never had the chance to ride the first gen KLR. A16Tony offered me a chance but i declined.
I am extremlly impressed as of now with this bike. I can not wait until I get some more miles on it to really open it up. And it is so much more comfie then the KLX do not get me wrong the KLX will always have a home it is a great short slab bike that is setup nicely fore the trails.
I just needed something more and I feel I found it with the KLR

 

Very nice!

I just got my July issue of Motorcyle Consumer News and they did a full road test on it and gave it rave reviews.

They summarized it by saying:

"Remarkable confort and versatility, from dirt to freeways"
"Greatly improved suspension, brakes and seating"
"A terrific value for the money"

Their only complaints were:

Expected originalrear tire life of about 4000 miles, non adjustable shifter, and a speedo error of 10%.
As far as I'm concerned, those would benon-issues.


EDIT: Oh by the way, you did pick the right color.

 

Alright now you did it, I'm gonna look into one soon.........yea right, my wife although cool, and loves to ride too, would slash my tires if I even mentioned it. I gotta pay off some bills first, by that time I'll be looking at the 2020 model. Nice bike, and of course you got the right color. Man I'm jealous.

 

Nice! I'll bet that bike is an awesome street bike. It looks like you could ride forever on that big nice seat. Congratulations on the new addition!

 

You said it,The seat is a whole lot better then the iron slab they put on the KLX.

 

Hey scat did Tony sell his KLR?

 

Oh and after buying the new bike,......are you still married?

 

I saw it listed on craiglist last week if i recall but not sure if its been sold ?
