yep-heated agreement w/ Jeff; and 'did' as much on mine. Intructions are in the extra-fine print on the can as well--I had to ask my 14 y/o seeing eye dog to read it to me. 1oz/gal which ='s 6oz in the KLR650. 2.5oz in the KLR250. revmaaatin. snow drifts approching 5ft. KLR usage approacing 15 March. or 15 April

Google pat-man or Pat Man this guy is KLR community, just not here. He has published significant personal research on his KLR thoughts/findings. YMMV revmaaatin.

Thanks spike, I was leening for the 685 as the 705 is kinda new and maybe a bit much for the case, I have about 70K on it so if the original is still good these things can go forever. Thanks for the tip aabout the bolts, I'll likely have someone else do the engine, but I'll let them know about that, probibly go with all new bolts for the small cost of them. Engine: check for now unless I hear any cons to the 685

I'm not planning to open up the top-end again until I see blue smoke, a clear oil-sight glass, or a big BOOM. At that point, there is a minimal cost difference between and OEM 0.5mm / 1.0mm overbores with OEM rings & piston and going 685 but if you go 685, there's no going back and only the 705 to look forward to (bigger incremental cost). I haven't really 'studied' it but it seems you might need a mechanical engineering degree to balance the in/out aspects of the 705 versus the stock settings used for the OEM 651 and the 685. > > Don R100, A6F > > --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "David H" wrote: > > > > I'm looking for sugestions for parts to start compiling a list and an logical order in which to so as not to have to remove anything just put on or replace any new parts because some other later upgrade wants something else there, ie if I replace the exaust with a new OEM then go with a 705 I need to replace the exaust again, so I want a plan in place before I start any of it, most of this rebuild will be across a few years, so small groups of parts at a time, then the engine last, unless it goes in the middle. > > Looking for pro/con on > > :Suspension > > :Exaust > > :Brakes > > :Electrical > > :Engine > > :Transmission > > :Dash > > :Lighting > > :anything else > > Any help is appreciated > > > > --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "jeepaviation" wrote: > > > > > > My vote would be a rebuild if all is well with the frame, engine, primary parts and such. Most all of my associates that ride keep hassling me to buy another more capable bike. But, mine is paid for, the only additional costs are those farkles that I choose. My 06 is at 30000 miles and it is down for deep maintenance this week. When the top end finally goes I will rebuild to the same 650 cc if I can. If the taper is too much in the bore I will upgrade to the 685/705 kit. However, I think that time is a long way away. > > > > > > Good luck. > > > > > > --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "David H" wrote: > > > > > > > > Kinda my thoughs on the rebuild, mine is still going strong, for now, just looking for ideas for the future, it is getting close to needing some stuff soon, instead of replacing with kind, might as well upgrade and trying to get a plan so as not to repete anything. > > > > > > > > --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "hal gainous" wrote: > > > > > > > > > > I bet you can find a pretty new klr for $3000.(less than 10,000 miles) > > > > > somebody's always getting out or upgrading. > > > > > I found a 2006 with 3000 miles and $1,700 worth of nifty upgrades > > > > > for $3000 in mid 2007. > > > > > rebuilding one would be very educational. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >
