is it really a KLR if there’s no milk crate?

 

[timtune]

I guess a Rubbermaid "givi" box just doesn't cut it.

Not on a klr. That would be socially acceptablemon a weestrom .

I actually have a set. The one pictured is the "daily driver" box and I have a second larger one for touring that will hold my camp chair and ukulele coffin.

And you can tell it's a real KLR if you look close. The rad guard is both stitched together with and held on by zip ties.

I always wondered about those EMS fuel tanks. What's your range ?

add them to a KLR and it doubles the value

”do you have some highway pegs for a KLR650?”

”sounds like a fair exchange!”

relax...I like KLRs. I just adapted the joke from Lada cars. “do you have a gas cap for a Lada” says the guy walking into the parts store “sounds like a fair swap”.

or...”how do you double the value of a Lada?” “Fill the gas up”.

The KLR gets pretty good mileage. If you're careful 200 miles.

The pegs are for when your in touring mode. With those pegs I can ride all day.

why do ladas have a rear window defroster? to keep your hands warm when you push it

FUNFACT - Back in the day (in russia) a used Lada was worth more than a new Lada. The reason? You could sell a used one immediatly but a new one you had to wait years for.
That said screw Ladas. Trabants are the cool commie car. 2 stroke motor and dura plast body.

Friend has a DKW. It has a can on a chain in the gas tank. Pull it out, fill the tank with gas, fill the can with 2t oil, and drop it back in the tank.

Did Trabants have a papier mache body or cardboard/something odd?

It was similar to plastic but with cotton filler.

Did the luxury version of the Trabant have a higher thread count?

Kind of like FRP (fiberglass) or maybe RTM (resin transfer method) layout the fiber pack and inject the resin but not 100% sure. GG is right the filler was second grade. Cotton or jute.
