    So what was the final answer? KLR? DR? XR?

    I wasn't thinking of the cub/CT/scootery things but the usual fun/ touring/road/dirtbike type thing.

    Any one particular bike?

    BTW not worried about the DR klr thing anymore.I'd like to have the DR motor in a KLR frame

    Pretty sure the klr is not purchased by the US military now in favour of a purpose built diesel so sales figures may have declined somewhat.

    Interested to find out though.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    I understand the diesel engine is not KLR (Hayes Diversified make it) but the rest looks pretty familiar

    or the petrol one

    And, Yes, I would like one, preferably the diesel...
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    Exactly! KLRistas seem to accept the bikes shortcomings, but love them anyway. DogRooters seem to have tiny-dick syndrome so have to put the KLRs down.
    And as for the Eurosnobs...
