Do they actually make KLR 650's? If so, that is what I want. I dont care if it is street legal or not.

Looks like the KX500 is the meanest! Did you guys see that KX500 chainsaw on youtube? it seems that it makes one hell of a chainsaw too. Is the 500 meaner than the 650?

Hey Warlock, I don't have anything against any bikes, I love them all, but I would have gone with the Suzuki V-Strom or the Goldwing. I sat on every bike this weekend, including Ninja bikes and Hybusa (spelling) the V-Stroms, the Gold wings and every model from Crotch rocket to cruiser and I don't like the lay down types, but the cruisers were nice, but the Gold wing and the Strom we so comfortable it was not even funny. Did you trade in the other Harley? Oh and that model of Harley is one of the only Harley bikes I would really love to have. One of my IT guys bought one in black last year and its awesome. Remember: It's not having what you want
It's wanting what you've got.

Deejer,

Where have you been all day? And no, I could never trade my other Harley in because it was my best friends and I could never do that to him. Besides, it is haunted and I'm afraid that nobody else would understand that bike.
I agree that the Gold Wings, and other bikes are probably smoother and probably a little more comfortable, but the Ultra Classic has way more character than the others and it retains a lot more value than most.
It is sure heaven when you are clipping 75mph down the road all day as compared to the 14, or the Fatboy. I know that you are partial to the Gold Wing, and it is a fine machine, but it just isn't my cup of tea. They just look so huge!
Well it looks like you are destined to get a new bike because you have sure been looking around a lot lately. What happened to the beemer that you fell in love with? Are you going to buy it?
I think that the right bike for you will stir your soul as soon as you see it, that's what the Ultra did to me, and everybody get's stirred by something different.
I got stirred for 23,000 dollars!
