I made the switch and have finished my test ride and have to say that this is way all road going KLR's should be. 65 MPH at about 3700 RPM's will work from here on out. Really doesn't kill the take off too bad either(you just pull those wheelies at a higher speed). __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Anybody have any experience with the new Acerbis "Flag" hand guards? The web site says they will mount to "any bike, any color" but THEN gives an application guide! Needless to say, KLR is NOT a choice. They come in a "YZ blue" that will with my army green as well as anything, and the price is right. Lamar A14 (stock handguards removed...too ugly)

I have a friend with a 97' who would like to do this mod but isn't having much luck finding the replacement sprockets. Local dealers are no help and even Dennis Kirk doesn't list the 16t in thier catalog. Any info out there on availablity? Stephen Easter, where did you get yours? Any tips appreciated, Steve Pye

you can get 16t sprockets from fred hink at arrowhead. that's where i got mine. as for rear sprockets, good luck. you might try sidewinder. here is their reply to my earlier inquiry about a non-stock sprocket. i never bought one (bought a klx300 instead), but they might be able to help for rear gears. mw ****** Dear Mark, We have it for $69.99. Give me a call at 630-513-1000.......Alex
