Hold out for a decent one at that price.

How do you get the Harbour Freight trailer across the border?

My nephew Ryan got a 2007 KLR for first street bike on PEI, and we did the CMG Dawn 2 Dusk rally on rural New Brunswick roads, with me leading the medium paced group on my Versys 650, and he kept on my butt the whole 600km day. I gotta tell you, I miss my KLR. It can do almost everything the...

Okay, back to KLR650... Stay away from the 2008 year due to poor rings that cause oil burning unless the guy did a rebore and did the 685 kit. As far as I know the doohickey for all model years is still an issue, and a guy up in puffer law, the Guru, has a few of them that broke and made a...

My nephews friend, Nate, has a 530exc. It's brilliant.

Is that LC4 with the 18 part oil change?

Yep, he drank the orange Kool Aid. I'm leery about the KTM maintenance, but most of my friends who ride serious off road ride KTM, Husqvarna, or Husaberg.

Touring. I wish I had more time and money for it. :) Whereabouts did you go?

Do not put a 16t front sprocket on the KLR for offroad use! The KLR is much too heavy and with stock gearing and suspension, much too fast without enough power off road. I had the 15t front, and probably would have gone with the 14t if I didn't do so much long distance touring on it. I would...

I moved to Prince Edward Island with my Versys, and while it works great on gravel roads, I wanted a KTM 990 with aggressive knobbies for the wet clay roads. Instead I got PR4s and a couple of squirts in my jockey shorts.

And get a bill of sale transferring it into your name.

Make sure it comes with oem charger and manuals for a start.

Same here, although my replacement was found on eBay and shipped from the UK. Pledge sucks @ss when it gets really cold out there.

The PR4s tend to wander on the gravel, but I'm happy with them. The 120 front is the culprit as it rolls side to side a bit. The asphalt ramping is limited only by my ability. :)

Think of us as concerned. :) I've ridden with a sticky throttle, and ended up in the creek because of it. The lessons a 13 year old learns on a dirt bike... :)

Like this high? The left mount he left stock, the right one had to be modified to avoid the exhaust.

For the KLR, get the IMS extended shifter. You can thank me later.

Try an exacto knife to trim off anything that is causing the friction and sticking.

Where are the pictures?!

Welcome. What does the Islander stand for?
