[dsn_klr650]nklr- introduction.

[Michael Hoyt]

Questions regarding the Big Gun were posted earlier, but no one replied. I too am intrigued by the 8hp increase. They are offering the "quiet core" now, but how quiet is it? I don't want to piss my neighbors off. I'm concerned about the quality of the other choices though. The big Gun seems to be top notch. Any users out there have any comments? Thanks. M
