    I'm looking for a KLR

    I have a mate who's keen on a KLR650. Any leads? Earlier or later model.

    where is he - welcome to take my old girl for a spin if he is down this way to give him some idea - she is a state of the art '05 (basically an '87 with new paint job i am told)

    just re read your post - he is not trying to decide betwixt the two he just wants a KLR? - smart man that mate of yours! - anyway if he is down here and wants a spin just for fits and giggles..................

    Is he still your mate?

    and no matter how much persuasion you offered, he still wants one?

    Not for me to tell him what to buy. The KLR fits his interpretation of adventure. As you know we all interpret it differently. KLR is more pillion friendly than most others also if you rule out the F650. Plus I was very impressed with the KLR leant to me when down in Nelson. Thanks Padmei.
