I'm gonna buy one, learn to ride it, and then head for Argentina by land in a year or so. This board has loads of information on the KLR650. One stop shopping for infoz.
Yo.... I had a 1999 KLR 650, and it was by far the best Enduro I've ever had. Compare it to the XL600R (Honda) and it's a bit heavier, and less off-road capable, but is it a lot more on-road capable, and with a 6.1 gallon gas tank you can go a long way. I should have never sold it. I can honestly recommend this bike as one of the best bikes you'll ever own. |
