It's got all the good stuff on it like crash bars, bash plate, Scottoiler, heated grips and chunky Dunlop 606's.
So what do I do with it now?? Where should I go??

I was trying to get it dirty on some of the back roads near Ngaruawahia yesterday. Think a trip to Riverhead forest might be on the cards today.

nice work...go join the Auckland Gravel Riders Club they'l look after you. On and i think the green ones are the fastest KLR's, could be wrong though?

Sick bike- nice photo, too. If I were you I'd make a beeline for Woodhill.

Enjoy.:cool:
You have reasonable taste. It's not one of those hidieous new face lift models.
Still looks like a sickle, not a buzzard that flew into a plate glass window.
(Somebody had to get the early KLR sledge in):rolleyes:

It was hard but I managed to resist the temptation and say something nice...even if it was a blatant lie:innocent:

KLRs rock my friend & that one looks like it has all the necessary fruit on it :niceone:
Just don't go thru too deep a sand dune in it will you.

Thanks for the compliments guys. Took it for blast on the twisties that go round and through Riverhead forest. Couldn't figure out how to get into there (does anyone know?) so headed north toward Puhoi and went along Ahuroa road cause I knew that was a gravel road. Then headed home. Getting used to the knobbly tyres now. Amazing amount of grip they have, some crazy lean angles you can get with them. Although they might not last too long riding like I was.
My job for next week if to find more gravel near Auckland.

forest access is closed in there - you just missed Kaipara 200 Saturday which was all through there and beaches etc - still good places to ride thereabouts Chatham Rd etc, and look out for Port Waikato - Waitomo ride on the Akd Gravel thread next weekend, taking all the delicious south Aucks gravel
