Was torn between this and the T7. However, I'm leaning towards the klr. This will do everything I want an adv to do, at a much cheaper price than the Tenere, as sweet as the Tenere is. It also has a larger tank for better range.

why no photo of you and the other large male on the klr650 LOL

I think if you switch sides that the extra strap may run around the rear to attach the bags together.

Is the neutral thing related to pegs/shifter gap? I did Nice CNC pegs which required that I change the shifter position. Later when I bought Enduro style boots I bought a Tusk shifter (longer) but that was because of the boot not the pegs.

I had an aftermarket exhaust on my KLR for one season. I put the stock back on, as it has a spark arrestor on it, and I didn’t enjoy the loud exhaust while riding forest trails. It didn’t seem to change performance characteristics, either way. To each their own.

Great video. Ive ran a lot of NiceCNC products. From the fender bag to thete mini fairing kit. Vid was pretty informative. Gave ya a sub. We gotta help each other out. KZbin hasnt been taking care of us little guys latley. Keep the vids coming.

Good video :) - Run the bags under the seat if you can - velcro will meet and the bags will hang lower - At least how that's how mine work but I don't have a KLR

Hhahahahaha The KLR is an antiquated turd!!!!

I swear you have a doppleganger on a youtube channel called that pedal show. Dan from the show does Brazilian ju jitsu as well 😂

I brought a 2015 model in Brisbane this year and rode it across the Simpson and down to Melbourne pretty much stock ( i added better pegs and usb charger). It smoked it. I would add crash bars, better exhaust and look into front shocks improvements to help out. They are great solid dependable bikes.

I’ve owned cruisers, sports cruisers old CB’s & ridden sports bikes for 30 years and there is something intangible about my 03 KLR it’s simple and makes riding fun again for some reason.

Where in Oz are you

The klr650 is fun to ride but it's a dog it's not for the interstate it's for back roads and riding around town

2016 Camo KLR. Old bloke, never been on a bike before. Bolted on racks and soft bags then panniers. Carry too much camping gear, I like to be comfy. Road trips and camping around Tassies lakes country. Does everything I need, and more. Learned early to not drop it. But she can be picked up, dusted off and away we go. Love it. Not getting anything else...

I got a set of the OEM pannier racks for US $37 from cycleparts nation. They're not as beefy as yours, but they have made a couple long road trips and taken a few falls with no problems. I had to grind off a couple tabs for them to accept my soft luggage. I would like to have the panels for the rotopax cans, though. Nice video!

Its a klr anything will work! Thats what makes then special!

Very cheap option brother.....keep up the good work

💯

Hello do u have the companies name for the fork brace that u got in one of our videos

thank you great video and very helpful

change the klr fender to a klx fender, will take the highway wobble away.

Greetings, As always another brilliant detailed video production 🇺🇲🍾🎉🇺🇲 Keep producing more videos about the KLR

Honest representation of this bike. I would rate it a little higher than you have. I’m 53 6’3 and just shy of 100 kegs. This bike has a very forgiving nature and is well suited for someone who wants a bit of everything. I went for a ride with some young guys last weekend and when we stopped for lunch they were amazed that I was never far behind and sometimes breathing down their neck. They were on enduros and it made me pretty happy with my purchase. A bit of a key though is to get on the bike and practice key skills such as obstacles and power slides. I can lift the front wheel when needed but I think I would really push the envelope with the rear suspension on a large obstacle. Great video Thanks

I’ve never seen a more perfect road for the KLR.

Great video. At 57 I've not ridden for twenty years, after always being on a motorcycle earlier in my life. A '22+ klr adv or crf 300 rally are at the top of my short list, and the klr keeps popping to the top.

$800 for a muffler !!!

Seems like a lot of money to spend on a theoretical gain of 10%. Is there even any evidence (measured) that 10% is achieved?

It came from the dealer, I can’t seem to find it. Thinking about the tusk Olympus

I had a Kawasaki tank bag on my gen 2, it was held on by magnets. I’m now looking at a tusk large tank bag. The bag is held on by traps

Ive fallen down the KLR rabbit hole. The ugliest, dumbest looking bike, but i want one SO BAD!

Clickbait. He keeps the KLR

How about a video on the riding gear you use, helmets gloves jackets. My Ducati pikes peak was delivered this morning. I have separate gear for each bike I own. I’m looking at a Klim You mention jiujitsu I’m also a practitioner

Thank you for another great video kawazaki

Needs gear selection indicator, needs 1 more higher ratio gear, needs less vibration........ to make it more than enough

I have the klr650 adventure 2024 and other than having to join a gym to lift this sucker up, it's a good all arounder.

We need a klr 450

Comfortable for old farts, good for dirt roads, not a serious off-road bike. Not too heavy, but NOT stupid heavy like some massive adventure bikes. Was also used by the military. Good street bike but not great. I guess if your done with serious off-road stuff, but just want an all arounder, it's outstanding. Good price point also. Sit on one in the show room and you will see.

Too bad the EFI reliability is questionable. "Not a single recall...."

Just got my KLR yesterday, it’s every bit as slow as I remember it but it like an ugly girl, a lot of fun until your friends find out

Picking the KLR tomorrow morning. What slip on do you recommend

You’re a good guy great video

What’s a kawazocky?

Oh shid , the recreation with the toy motorcycle caught me by surprise 😂.

Where's doge ?

I have a 2022 KLRs. Love it. It's a heavy pig, but I've gotten used to that.

Seems reasonable , louder, not loud.
