Yeah. . . it does look like a Honda but I LIKE IT! I'm not a big fan of the decals on the KLX's. I just went out for my first ride on my "06 KLX after doing the carb, Big Gun and KDX 200 snorkle and Uni A/F and found I got only35.7 mpg. Now this is riding it hard on Forest Service and singletrack but sure thought I'd get better mpg than that (I have a 130 main and 35 pilot with Kouba screw out 2 turns). NOW I really feel the need for a bigger fueltank! Anyway. . . I LIKE YOUR BIKE !!!!

Do ya see what I'm saying....I would give muzzy a call and see if they changed the diameter of the can for our bike or they sent you the wrong one.

Oh as far as stickers go.....I hate factory stickers on anything I own...I have no idea why folks like um. Bike looks sharp without stickers.

Yeah, the stickers look snazzy, but I like the ugly sleeper look too.

I also agree, that muzzy is HUGE! I thought fmf was the biggest pipe out there but your muzzy rivals it.

Yo, FM. What black headlight did you test fit, and how did that project go? Looks like my bike now, but my frame is black also.

Hey Finger_Mullet, I like that rear fender on your bike! Will that fit the 09s? Oh yeah when I got my exhaust, there was a couple of stickers on the pipe indicating its for an 09 klx250s! Im guessing it is! The fitment sucks! My bike pulls hard though! I get plenty of torque with airbox lid off! I dont really like the loud intake noise! I am gonna put a some decals later on. I am loving my bike right now!
