2000 Kawasaki KLR650: Great Bike!!!

Tue, 16 Nov 2004 22:31:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author kold_hate - I got mine as a theft recovery that wasnt running. I rebuilt it, and now runs great! There are a few minor quarks, but all in all, there are WAY more good qualities. There is more than enough power to get up to speed on the highway (and a little...

2000 Kawasaki KLR650: Did the other guys mention it was big?

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author zodiac13 - I bought my KLR new in '98 for $5100, out the door. Not a bad price. First things first: this bike is big! If you are like me, 5'7" it's not the most comfortable bike in the world. If you are looking at doing some serious off road, or single trails,...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author steve_rolfeca - This is my 10th motorcycle. Over the years, I've owned equal numbers of trail and street bikes. Finally, I've found one machine that meets all my needs.

The KLR is more of a jack-of-all-trades than a thoroughbred. In fact, it's:

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author wiseguyinc - My Klr650 has been a pretty good bike. It's my first motorcycle and I have found it to be very easy to ride.Off road it's pretty heavy for any major adventures but on tar or gravel roads it works great.

There are quite a few aftermarket parts...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author vfrdirk - I'd been wanting a dual-sport bike in general, and a KLR in particular, for about 3 years before I bought my used 2000 KLR in January of 2002. I knew the bike had some flaws, but the venerable machine has fanatical adherents on the DSN-KLR yahoo group,...

2000 Kawasaki KLR650: KLR 650 Excellence

Fri, 4 Jan 2002 20:27:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author mackarcw - For mid to long range sport touring on a budget the KLR is an excellent choice. The KLR will transport, in good comfort, a rider and gear for a couple weeks worth of road time. Riding two up will shorten the trip but only due to loading capabilities. The...

2000 Kawasaki KLR650: 2001 KLR650. A better bike at $5000? This one's hard to beat.

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author turbohawk - Finally! Kawasaki produces a 2-tone color scheme that I like again. This is my third KLR. My first was a 1986 600 which was put through hell, has over 60,000 miles on it and looks like hell. I see it every week or so as my friend still owns it. In 1993 I...

2000 Kawasaki KLR650: Make sure you want a Dual Purpose!

Tue, 29 May 2001 19:12:04 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fastdraw - The first thing you notice when you swing your leg over the saddle of a KLR650 is that this bike sits high(37"+)! I'm 6'3 and my leg often hits the tail lights when getting on and off, and its difficult backing up while seated unless your wearing those...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author molespears - My wife bought me the KLR for my golden birthday! What a woman!!!! I compared it to the Honda and the Suzuki and the KLR had all that I wanted power, height, small fairing, liquid cooling, on/off road capability and a huge gas tank. All this and a...

2000 Kawasaki KLR650: KLR 650-A14

Tue, 20 Jun 2000 00:09:41 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author adamsr - This is my second KLR. I'd still have my first one(1990 Tengai) were it not stolen! I recently traded in my CBR900RR for my 2000 KLR. No regrets. I love it because after 10 hours on Highway #1 (Calgary to Vancouver) I'm not partially crippled, and...
