    I thought I'd write one of these as all I've been able to do over the last 4 years is piece together feedback from miscellaneous sources on the comfort of this particular seat. The seat: Tall Comfort | Kawasaki (1987-2019) KLR650 Complete Seat / All Carbon Fiber SKU: 27-0652-30-2000 Width...

    Trying to figure out what gas stations get the best mileage for the 2023 KLR650. My dealership recommended 91 grade gas or higher. Kawasaki advertises 45 MPG Most online reviews say they are achieving an average of around 50 MPG. I want to see if we can achieve getting more MPG.

    Need to replace an old YB14L-A2 battery. Would like to have lithium, but after reading a few forums, can't wrap my head around if this will work. Could get any size that fits into the housing? Do I need special chargers? will the alternator recharge correctly? Does the battery have to be exactly...

    I am going in a couple days to look at a 2015 KLR650 with 11k miles. It has a rebuilt title. He said his friend rode the bike and hit something and had to get new forks. The bike was rebuilt at a Kawasaki dealership and payed for by insurance. The bike is listed for 3 grand. I am wondering what...

    Yesterday I was riding to town, a 20 mile ride, ran out of gas just before I got to town, turned gas to reserve and made it to the gas station and fueled up, first time ever running out of gas and having to use reserve on my bike. Rode acrossed town and back with no issues and then made it about...

    Hey everybody. I’m excited to connect with you all here. I’m Ben. I live in the PNW USA and have been riding for a little over three years. My first and only bike prior to the 2022 KLR I’ll soon be picking up was a 2019 g310gs. I liked my GS. Bought into BMW thinking the brand would be...

    So I have a 2022 KLR Adventure that will not turn over. DISCLAIMER: Part of this may be my fault. Purchased new at the dealers here in Bangkok. Drove it to the gas station to fill the tank to the top, and theres where I screwed up. I thought I read 87 octane.... But it was B7 (diesel). Made...

    Stupid question, probably stupid move too. I took off the lower fairings. Worried about radiator and anything else. Should I put 'em back on? I don't see "worrisome" movement but the radiator definitely travels back and forth a bit in the wind at freeway speed. Thanks all.

    I’ve got an 00’ klr 250d and would like to do some adventure touring on it as it is a capable and light off-reader and can keep up on country highways. Are there good options for panniers out there (preferably hard shell and lockable)? or is that overkill and a soft bag is a must? should i get a...

    Hi there! I just bought a 1987 KLR 650 and it has some trouble cold starting. I was aware that many KLR’s can be temper mental when it comes to cold starting but i’d love to be able to get it going without using any throttle. I have tried full choke, half choke etc. i have cleaned the carb, air...

    Hey everyone, I'm new here. I just picked up a 1984 KLR600. It has a PWK aftermarket carburetor. I'm having trouble making it run well. Not enough gas/too much air. I'm still playing around with the A/F and the jets and I'm getting closer but I just realized that this isn't the stock carb! The...

    I have a 2016 klr 650 with only 1600 miles on it. Last weekend I went and did some hard trail riding with my brother and all was fine. A couple days later I was riding to work and it felt jerky. I had steady throttle but it kept jerking. Then a couple days later I went to ride again but this...
