Where's the ride?
Looks like it's living up to its name, BASHplate !!Originally Posted by Woodman
That does look like a good hit.
I'd often wondered why the mounting system for the bashplate on the 640 seemed so hefty, until I read recently an annual service tip of "check your bashplate bolts and replace the bent ones." When you think about it, the bashplate can cop a fair whack which is taken out on the mounts.

it was a smallish rock on the Maungatap. Front wheel ran over it and I think levered up the buried unseen part which hit the basplate and bloody near stopped the bike in its tracks.
Fastest the KLR has ever stopped.
I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

Fortunately i had my nads pre-retracted. Worse thing was when I stopped to see wtf happened I forgot (yes forgot) to put the side stand down and we both fell over in a heap. Thats how i bent my clutch lever.Why are my nads making a run for the safety of my throat while I'm reading this??

Wadaya guys reckon.
Got sick of breaking rear indicators, so got these WR ones cos they are way cheaper than klr ones. It may look a little dorky but the chances of breaking them now are pretty remote, and the best thing is they bolt straight on, all you need is a slightly longer bolt.
haven,t been for a ride yet but they look solid enuff.

Look like they'll do the job. Have you tried laying the bike on the ground (gently at a standstill
Fitted cheapo after-market XR indicators to my DR200SE, pretty much as soon as I got it. They were protected fairly well by the hand rails. OEM ones were on stalks and around 20cm long
