so you are selling one sportbike to buy another....

Good luck with the sale although I suspect that with the current market you may be being a little ambitious on price

You may want to keep an eye on this one then to see how the market views them. it started with a $1 Reserve

Best of luck with the sale

Agree with the guys above. I can't sell my KTM 950 Adventure at $8750 and almost had to give my GS away. It's a hard market out there. There's a lot of bikes just coming up again and again and not selling.

Thats why i won't sell mine. Just not worth anything at the moment (or ever). Even with the farkles I,d probly be lucky to see $2k. better off saving my pennies and getting a second trailer trash bike.

Tied it to the bench and waited for the lightning?

Just buttoned the beast together and took it for its first run with the 685 kit installed. Definitely goes better and makes a different noise too. The tappets are a bit rattly, but I expected that cos I set the exhausts at .0015" above maximum, will see how that progresses.

The thermobob took longer to fit than the head. Pain in the ass fiddly bloody job and luckily I had some spare 3/4 heater hose floating round the shed. It seems to be doing its job though.

I gotta say that a klr engine is one of the simplest and straight forward engines there is to work on. Nothing hard at all, it just about fell together.

let the riding begin. (after running in of course).

Do you find it comes up to operating temperature quicker and remains at that point?

Yes it steadily rises to 88degrees C and pretty much stayed there. I went for a 30km road only run in ride this arvo and it didn't move. Even when the road turned to deep mud and river bed and the going was slow it only went up to 89.

I put the wonky radiator back on and it will have to do for the winter, and I will get it recored for the summer when my bikin fund gets a bit healthier.

The 685 kit really changes how the bike goes, real smooth too.
