Kawasaki KLR description

This is a nearly mint condition 2008 KLR650 with all the add-ons one would ever need to create the ultimate "budget" adventure bike. I originally purchased this bike for local and solo dual sport trips. It didn't take me long to fall in love with the KLR for its ridability, comfort, versatility, and most of all reliability, so I decided to build the ultimate KLR650 Adventure bike out of it. I did all the research and talked to owners to determine exactly what upgrades were best, then I executed the plan over the winter. I blew the doors off the budget because every mod made the bike that much better, so the cycle continued. 

You can see in the pics that this KLR looks and turned out great, but the way it rides now, considering its anemic stock performance, is amazing. It performs on the street and dirt with confidence. You can do an entire day on this bike and still be able to walk at night (mostly because of the highway pegs, seat, and risers). 

The list below contains all the modifications made to the bike. Every upgrade has less than 100 miles of use except for the doohickey kit which was done when the bike was purchased. As you can see, this bike is built to go the distance. This is a bulletproof, nearly maintenance free KLR with every upgrade you would ever make already installed and brand new. If you want a purpose built adventure bike at a less adventurous cost, this is the bike for you. 

The build far exceed my expectations, but has unintentionally resulted in a bike so capable it no longer fulfils its original intended purpose for me, which is why I am selling it. It should be owned by someone who is going to put on the miles it was designed for.

Both races ended prematurely however with red flags during the final laps.

There was a time when Grand Prix racing was a lucrative affair, with the bikes and their riders resembling the fag packets that sponsored them. However, two unfortunate and costly blows hit the paddock; the banning of tobacco advertising in 2005 followed by the global economic crisis. The off-shoot saw grid numbers drastically dwindle with staple teams, like Kenny Roberts' outfit, and manufacturers, Kawasaki and Suzuki, succumbing to the events and disappearing.
