    The FT500 has the XR500 engine stuffed into a road frame

    If 3 TV presenters can never agree on what is "cool" there's a snowballs chance in hell that hundreds of opinionated Kiwi Bikers ever will.

    I had the 175s big brother. Totally original, pretty cool as well. Sold just prior to getting the KLR.
    Started missing it about 5 minutes after it went...

    Any IT is sub zero imho, i had the 175j version, the first with the non triangular swingarm. Can,t remeber how many times the frame broke or how many hare scrambles were finished with less than 6 gears, but every time I see one my eyes go misty.
    I mentioned vegetables once, but I think I got away with it...........

    Yep that will fit in well beside the FT. Hope it doesn't prick it with those sharp exhausts.
