when them cheap A$$ tires were out at 3000 miles upgrade to endoro tires it will tide better off road and on road. the stock tires are just $hi# ! I have a 2022 klr fuel pump died I changed it NOTE red wire on the pump motor in side the sending unit was lose, I didn't try it do to the labor timr I decided just to put the new pump in and criped the red wire to make it tight. fuel pump was $60 on amozon comes with new fuel filter the old filter was bad at 3300 mils dirt in it looked like paint over spray from when they painted the tank. off road my $2000 x-pro templar m 250cc ripps . I put on a smaller rear sprocket upgraded kick stand the one it came with bent like hot lead lost the scid plate 9 loc tight loc tight loc tight ) they should sell loc tight in 5 gal pals sadle bags rank bag upgraded headlight fixed wiring harness was just taped connections from new all bolts need loc tight added seat cushion replaced key witch and starter button upgrade carb so I could adjust carb to get the exhaust to stop glowing red replaced rear shock upgraded spark plug rapped glug wire to stop it from melting on the head speed O liyes by 5 mph your doing 5 under what it reads like the KLR also it is a 2023 with now 400 miles on it. I think I got the bugs worked out now, I road it 85 miles on road the other day like I stole it my son followed me on the kLr Both bikes got 48 mpg the @50cc would get better cruising Remember I ran it all out 9.5k rpm for 85 mile taering out after every stop.

Klx 300 is a better bike.. on the other end of the spectrum the versys x 300 is a better bike. Been following the klr for 5 years now. I own a klx 300 2024 model. My next bike will be the vx300. I dont forsee any need or use for the pig bike klr.

To be honest after owning a 3rd Gen KLR650 I can honestly say for what it was built to do, it is far more capable than me and most people I know. Most people that criticize it are not even capable to use it to its full potential.

I love my 2024 KLR! It's a simple, efficient bike that allows for great California moto camping. I have a 2nd bike (BMW R1250RS) for commuting and speed runs through the So Cal canyons. Everyone should own a KLR for the fun factor!

Love the KLR's. Sold my 22 about a year ago now and getting ready to get a new one for the early fall riding season. Only issue is that I've found some good deals on the first gen Triumph Tiger 900's 2020-2023, so I'm in the decision process, I know the tiger is better overall, but the KLR really is good and half the price.

The KLR is a legend. My buddy had driven one for 20 years. He beats the living hell out of it, the bike doesn't even sweat it. He changes the oil once a year. It never skips a beat.

I dont think Im there yet....but getting close. Rode hard offroad all thru my 30's, now in my 40's and settled on my KLX300 that can dual sport and single track. But starting to think of getting a KLR to haul my fishing stuff around. And putting on more easy miles, cuz I mainly explore Great Lakes area anyway. I still haul the KLX to the desert in winters and do some crazy sketchy enduro though...that would be tough to give up.
@Kawboy135 ай бұрын
If you end up getting a KLR DON'T sell the KLX! They are just such fun bikes. I have had more bikes than I can remember and my KLX has been my favorite. I have a Versys 650 for when I want a longer trip. I have also been looking at the KLR but not sure if I want 3 bikes in my basement? Although that would be sweet. :)

I have a xr650 with a lot of mods and all the bolt on power adders and it’s a awesome bike. My best friend just got a older 04 klr and we will have to do some comparison. I like the lighter Honda, I run Moto z tractionators so does my buddy on his brand new ktm 450 enduro, has a oversized 5.5 gallons tank I love the dirtbike look. I have led lights all around and low profile turns. Mx styled graphics kit. Rides soo much better for distance then my buddies ktm but not as adventure bike riding like the klr.
