I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I greatly appreciate the sub! More to come!

Right on!

@@Sventy11 The Africa twin is awesome, you will like the 650 because it can do road and highway pretty good, but when you get offroad it feels like a big dirt bike where the Africa twin feels more like an adventure bike

@Advrich yeah thats exactly what I'm going for! I really like the AT offroad. It feels good to me. I had a crf450rl a couple years ago but I couldn't stand the throttle twitch. I'm thinking the 650 will be nice power and a good old fashioned bike.

That works!

Thanks for watching, we have great roads and scenery, I decided it was time to share it! More to come, and racking up the miles and smiles lol

That would be great, I'd be happy with 100 by then!

Thanks!

I agree, it can do very light trails/ gravel roads ok, but more than that won't go well, that's what I use my trail bike for, I like the klr on the backroads and to ride an hour away to an ohv area with alot of flat logging roads

@@Advrich I acquired a 05 first gen bike down here in Guatemala and have been building it up on a resto/mod. And riding it around down here. It has not faired well and I believe the bike as a whole is way over hyped. Having spent the last two years constantly working on this bike I would NOT recommend this antiquated turd to anyone..

@@spencervidal3168 I agree, this is the first klr I've owned and it's not at all what I thought it was. Just got it a month ago with only 8000 miles on it but it needed a ton of work right away. I have a love hate relationship with it but will probably sell it after making some content with it. It honestly sucks at everything, I thought it would be better offroad, never expect to take it on gnarly trails, but it doesn't do well even in the basic trails where I thought it would shine. It is very comfortable and nice for cruising around on road, but it doesn't respond well to being ridden even a little bit hard on road, it doesn't like to down shift and brake hard is what's bothered me the most, the wheel hops if you downshift "too hard" or even slow down hard in too high of a gear, it's borderline dangerous if you aren't aware of that issue, and when I say too hard, it's a level that should be perfectly fine to not spin the wheel, but it does. I've ridden many bikes and never experienced that before, you should be able to shift from 5th to 4th and brake with the engine braking without skipping a beat. Have you experienced anything like that on your klr or is there something wrong with mine? It's like the gearing is always too high and doesn't fit offroad or on road riding.

@@Advrich Well The brakes are spec. for a 125 cc bike. I go through pads every couple of months. The suspension is a joke. Soft wallowing sponges all around. I have replaced the front fork seals three times as the bushings once. The rear shock seal twice. The "Doohiky"/ balancer chain tensioner needs to be replaced to prevent catastrophic engine damage and the thermo bob for the cooling system as well.. The weight, north of 500 lbs with an absurd high center of gravity. Hard down shifts will chatter the wheel on asphalt as well as dirt kicking the rear out every time. I went down one tooth on the front sprocket and get a bit better throttle response on and off road, but then there are only 5 speeds.. It burns oil like a diesel truck as well. My seat is a brick and replacements are ludicrously expensive. I have been a rider for more than 40 years and this is the single worst bike I have owned.. PERIOD. And I have owned some shitty Chinese bikes down here. People need to STOP waving the KLR flag it is an antiquated turd and always has been. And in this day and age there are similarly priced much better bikes than this thing. I would recommend that you get rid of that thing before it turns into a hole you shovel money into. There are NO redeeming attributes to that turd and spread the word..

@@spencervidal3168 well said and all facts! So it's not just me with wheel chatter/ hop on downshift, so weird that it does that, you need to be able to downshift hard for engine braking while braking hard in an emergency stop situation, like I said it's dangerous. I'll be listing it for sale soon

It is what it is, most idiots around here don't even wear a helmet, I wear slide pants, gloves and a helmet every ride no matter what

Very astute observation.. If every on else were riding around in boxer shorts, this guy would be ok with tights, a T-shirt and flip flops?!?!?!

What are you talking about? Lol sounds like you've never ridden a day in your life? Would it be better for the engine to keep it pinned all day? Lol, I've had this bike for years and have ran all my top ends to almost 200 hours with no failure, opened it up to swap and the piston still looked great, and my bottom ends go to 500 hours with no failure either lol, I can and do rebuild engines from top to bottom

@@Advrich how would I not have rode a day in my life if Im giving you advice on how to not blow up your fucking engine smart guy?

How about not be an asshole at least, smart guy.

@@DirtRoadChillinsounds like he doesn’t need the advice and you’re being a douche

@@Advrich bro you put this dude in tears lol💀

Thanks! Beep beep mfr lol

I'm glad you like it, more to come and many improvements coming to my videos, stay tuned and thank you for the support!

Wow, I can't believe you happened upon the video! Had to hype up the title for more views lol, we'll have to do it again sometime, Interlake is the best and it has even more to offer than I knew about, I really liked those trails towards the middle where it was single track but not as challenging, but there's no growth without a challenge, I really enjoyed this ride, you know those trails well! Next time I'll be more prepared for that type of riding

Thank you, I appreciate the view, more to come!

I jus traded my quad for a 250 n I love me my 2 stroke now

Yeahh, was gonna rebuild the rear suspension soon when I tear down the bike to rebuild the engine and check everything else during the winter. Good ear man!

@@Advrich I added grease to my new 2021 125, hardly any from the factory, check the headset bearings too. The exhaust port of the cylinder needs polishing too way too rough from the factory. You'll get a cleaner smoother powerband. Leave the intake rough but smooth out any sharp edges. Planning to match the cylinder to main cases, had spotted some casting globs through the intake port. All about airflow on the smokers!

Thanks alot bro! Trying to keep it up, winter is here, alot more and better content coming this Spring!
