Don't forget to delete that deceleration vacuum valve garbage from the carb.

Great video, very clear, thanks for sharing.

It's a very easy bike to ride even for a newbie. Not that powerful at all compared to newer stuff.

Great video thankyou . I’ve done a bit of riding down there , you’ve inspired to go back again , nice to see a video without shit music . 👍🏻👍🏻

I bought my 1st KLR650 on July 20, 1999 off the showroom floor. I sold it this past April. I did a lot of mods. From bigger front brake, Sargent seat, doohickey failed Eagle mike kit., MCP carb kit, subframe bolt, It snapped on one side. Lowered front fender, Regular maintenance, All LED lights, Off road lights, Progressive springs. Never dropped and I am the only person to have ridden it. 59,872 kms. It left me stranded once in 24 years, 10 months. I told the dealer. Fill the tank. I ran out of gas 2 days later. Dealer did not add gas. Dealer left petcock on RESERVE. I am still emotionally unstable over this. lmao. I bought a 2016 with 12,420 kms. And I have heavily modded it. I am still waiting on stuff. lol

I have the Alpine Motosafes, and they are great. I don't leave home without them!!!!

Hello EscaoeArtist, do you think this bike is suitable for a complete beginner with zero experience? If not, what would you recommend as good adv/dualsport to start with?

Good video. I just picked up a 2008 with 21,000kms. it was smoking on trade in, dealer put the 685 kit in, jet kit, airbox mod, new cam chain and cam chain balancer... its already got d606 on it, shes gonna be a fun summer!

5:30 good point on that, for the reliability you got to be able to recover 50% after 8 years is pretty decent. buying used you'd probably get your money back

Great honest review. Thank you 🙏

What windshield are you running?

I had the inreach for 2 years, it SUCKED! 100 different location tests, 64 went through! You wanna bank on a 64% hit rate if your life is on the line??? Also, the PLB has a MUCH better and robust satellite network worldwide! You want both? Have at it, but i would NOT rely on that inreach for safety! Beware!

Thx im pickking one up for 1700

you doubt the bike because you are brainwashed by brands

my klr 100k love it

Yes the stock screen sucks, but maybe it was designed for a rider who is sitting in a fully tucked down postion. 👍

Thanks again for another great video. Are you still filming ? Mark from Maryland

Thanks. Simple, honest review. I think the basic PLB seems a great option without all tech and messaging options. Great vid 👍

What are the name brand of the bar guards?

Plastics are shit...this is 10 years old😂😂😂idiot

I literally parked my 08 on the stock bash plate (not by choice) and it survived. The stock handguards are still the originals at 37,500 miles with several big offs.

Thanks cobba got me thinking this did. Particularly being stuck out the north west bush with a spot tracker. No joke if the lats and longs on the wife's receiver are your only lifeline and the b*tch can't even read them off the screen. PLBs👍

New brand? I rode a SWM 175 enduro bike back in 1981, so the brand has been around for a while.

i got one month of heavy use out of them. will get pricey eh

If you prefer IN THE BOOT pants, you can use goretex mountain/brush gaiters to protect the gap as well as be waterproof.

I'm looking at an 06 klr with 14k miles for 2000$ is it worth it??

Great video the best i have seen. Thanks

I have a RS500 r what an awesome bike , power ,breaks , suspension. Handling , what an awesome bike. I love it .

Excellent review, Thank You! I`ve been searching for a quality ear plug for riding my touring bike while communicating with my wife on intercom and also listening to the stereo at times. I`m gonna give these a try, I ordered a pair of the race plugs. Thanks again 😎

Been an owner of three 990s, but all have been the standard. Is the 2007 Adventure S a rare bird? I assume the R replaced the S.

I’ve got exactly the same model and year, I live in the UK and have done Europe many times, CANADA and the US , 80k miles on original clutch and going strong to this day . Great vid buddy & you should buy one . Billy 👍

I bought a stock 2008.Kawasaki green.Changed the tyres big time.Some decent Nobby tyres.Where can I get a engine crash bar kit,Looked ar Amonzon/EBay.

What did you change the suspension to.Did you do front and back.

Nice review. First time on your channel. I ride an '07... Upgraded the suspension with a RICOR Duel Sport shock and their Intimidator fork valves; and, it has made a big difference. There are other options, of course, but they worked out great for me. You didn't mention what your suspension upgrade was... Or, I missed it. I had minor oil consumption issues, but noticed I didn't have a o-ring seal on my oil cap. Replacing that halved helped a lot. And since I did a carb rebuild... No issues, at all, so far. Yeah, the brakes aren't great, but I ride it more like a cruiser than a sport bike... Usually :-) ✌️

Spot on mate..cheers 🍻

Good one… simple yet informative…

What I love about this, aside from the useful info, it comes without the other 9 minutes of complete bulls...it 99% feel the need to include

By chance do you remember the make and model number of the extended shift lever? That short one bugs the heck out of me. Every time I stick my toes down under it I think of hitting something and breaking my ankle.

what mirrors are you running? looks really good

PLB 4 LIFE! But really, the garmin and zoleo are so gimmicky and clearly marketed as feature packed, and they both have ridiculous subscription fees! PLB is a stronger signal, military use it, no subscription, are good for 5-7 years. People really think they need a screen and texting functionality over signal strength lol

Hi, awsome review, I'm going to add a PLB to my emergency equipment - however, tell me, why would it be a problem to get the exact LAT/LON position from the Garmin Inreach, when you press SOS I thought the position were part of the SOS package which is transmitted?

This wasn’t even on my radar. It looks a lot more comfortable than I expected. I’m getting one. I just bought a 2011 KLR and plan to travel and camp on it.

Being in the US everything that I’ve priced is way cheaper than you mentioned. I bought it used and it already has crash bars and solid hand guards and a pretty good exhaust. The brake lines indicator lights are a good idea. I’m also looking for rear crash bars that don’t block the passenger foot pegs.

Thanks good info

Great review

Nice job, well done.

2022 The KLR is Back ....

Simply a go anywhere machine . And it's going to get you back . Most videos done by mommas boys. Dougnut boys. Finally a true experience video.

Never had oil issues either . Synthetic never an issue. Long runs hot runs no oil issues.

Great video 👌👍
