"obviously you could just get a new jet"..... This is why I love these Shlogs. I live in a place where I can't just go out and get a new pilot jet or any number of other new parts. On this channel I learn useful tips for actually repairing and modifying parts as opposed to just buying new stuff. I already knew the copper wire trick but I learn new useful skills every time I watch these videos. I never get bored or skip though any of these Shlogs. Excellent as always

[@highlandcycles]

Thanks so much

Larry McMurtry , We can't make it here anymore - nearly twenty years ago and just as relevant today.

[@zachfarkash6430]

Good stuff as always, that 83CR250 would be a great bike all fixed up 🤘🤘

Happy 4th morgie

[@shinyribs2178]

I was dead broke and bought a 2003 KLR for $900. Needed chain/sprockets ( as usual) and the oil drain threads were stripped. I dumped a pail of used motor oil through the engine while running a pipe tap in to the case to fix it. Put 10,000 miles on that thing in the year that I owned it. Kept a rock on the seat to beat the ice off the switchgear so I could push the starter button 😅 Other than the vacuum petcock it was flawless for me, but damn, I never want to ride one of those pigs again! Swapped on XR650R forks which finally gave the bike a reasonable front brake. Sold it for $2,000 plus a '98 CR250 that I sold for $2,800. That KLR is one of the best financial decisions I ever made! Keep plugging away, Morgan. You're doing great with your channel, man 👍

[@Josh-Silvia]

I have an epoxy on weight from Steahly on my 450. No issues so far.

[@d.brayman3165]

I love KLRs. I'm great at crashing them. Great Shlog!!!

[@GraySpoonJeeper]

I'm pretty sure if you run Rotella in Gen 1 KLR's, no air filter maintenance is required. It is advised to replace it after it has disintegrated though.

[@glennhaynes6332]

I'm curious as to why the handguards are mounted upside down on the tx?

[@highlandcycles]

Great question!!! He did that. I don’t like it. But to each their own

[@tnhighlander8662]

Pro tip on oven use, 90wt on a ring gear is not odorless.

[@highlandcycles]

Heheheh. I cleaned it well

[@tnhighlander8662]

@@highlandcycles good thing, my wife’s oven smelled like a leaky Land Rover for days

[@johnhead8567]

My Beta 500 runs hot all the time. Always over 200. Regular to be over 220 in slower stuff. Not uncommon to see 250 in the gnarly. I've seen 280 and still never boiled.

[@glennhaynes6332]

Same, my 430 runs hot.

[@highlandcycles]

Good to know

[@johnmerritt6670]

A friend of mine has a Beta 350, the fan rarely comes on. We ride mostly single track.

[@lucasmonks5767]

Get you some used guitar strings for cleaning jets

[@highlandcycles]

Ooooh good idea

[@sendit6011]

Sweet klr

Aaaaaaaa i LOVE your content nice tips

[@onthethrottle7104]

Good to know about the TBI TPI TSP reader non compatibility. Also, working on Beta's has lead me to think the quality is not great especially when dealing with anything electrical. Yes, all bikes have their issues. Would like to see what you find out on the Husky issue and the code that was flashing at one time. Love the shlogs along with all your content. Best site on the tube! I'm excited to see another new vid rating products. Keep up the great work Morgan, you really are good at what you do.

[@highlandcycles]

Thanks

You live in montrose ya do u know a crazy preacher dude named Jerry large ? He pastors a small church there

[@highlandcycles]
