Kawasaki KLR description
2009 Kawasaki Klr 650, Jesse Luggage Systems Odyssey II, MEFO Explorer tires with 80% tread. Powerlet power port near dash on faring for cell phones, GPS, radios, grips etc. New battery last season. DG Aftermarket Exhaust (will include two stock exhausts, one in great condition, and one opened-as well as DG Quiet-Core insert). Eagle Mike Engineering and Mfg. Doohickey mod. What is that?-simply put, the Kawasaki KLR engines come with a tensioner spring and lever that loads the timing and balancer chains. On the older models (pre-08), the lever has been documented to give out under very extreme stresses. On the newer AND older models, the cam tensioner lever spring has been known to be too long from the factory and ceased to apply tension to the chain after the first couple adjustments, resulting is a sloppy chain. I have replaced these potential problems with Eagle Mike Mfg cam chain tensioner lever and heavy duty torsion spring. This will outlive the engine itself. I will also include all the tools that I have acquired to do the job-rotor puller and rotor holder wrench. Watt-man Thermo-Bob (T-Bob) mod. From The Thermo-Bob is an external thermostat with a coolant bypass. It allows coolant to bypass the radiator during warm-up, eliminating the surges of cold coolant year-round. It also raises the operating temperature at the top of the cylinder to 195F from 160F. more importantly, it raises the operating temperature at the bottom of the cylinder to 185F from downright cold, (ie as cold as 30F). It should eliminate the out-of-round cylinders that are common to the KLR as it ages which usually results in increased oil consumption. The warmer temps should extend engine life as well as increase oil change intervals, and improve economy by a few MPG. High and Low beam 35W HID headlamps with dual digital ballasts-5000K Temp (White light, not blue, or purple, or yellow. White). I've done this for two reasons. One, It only loads the stator with 35 watts of power as opposed to the 55W of a single halogen lamp, and two-for increased visibility and awareness. I've had zero problems looking ahead while cruising on the country roads at night. Original halogen bulbs included and can be swapped quite easily. Added third LED tail light under rear luggage rack for increased visibility to other drivers. This bike always starts, always performs, and has never let me down. The only issue it has cosmetically is a scrape on one of the boxes, and a spot on the fairing from where it was dropped on an asphalt driveway. It is hardly even noticeable. All photos show the bike AFTER the damages have occurred. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to text me, I will try to answer them as best I can. Calls are hit or miss since I am at work all day, texts or emails. $4,300.00 440-308-9107

Japanese jokes: Kawasaki introduced the "new" sports bike Ninja ZX-6R
Thu, 11 Oct 2018The quotation marks are not accidental - the old ZX-6R is hidden under another dress. However, there are still some innovations. The first thing the 2019 sportbike differs from its predecessor, which debuted in 2013, has completely different lining and LED optics in the spirit of the younger Ninja 400.
Tested: Maxxis Supermaxx Diamond
Fri, 23 Sep 2011Well Maxxis were bang on with their mileage claims, 6500 miles on the rear and it looks as though there is another 1000. Not bad at all for a set of tyres that cost less than £200. Having lived with the Supermaxx’s Diamonds over the past few months the best thing about these tyres is the mileage range they offer vs cost.
