A few of us are going for a ride tomorrow, 150- 225 miles, 50 miles to the twisties and through the mountains. My dilemma is which bike, never had this problem when there was no choice. I have a nice 2000 KLR that I've been riding to work and a 97 Honda XX. Kinda like the kinky thumper for the turns... such a problem (-: I'm starting to really like the KLR I guess.

KLR I guess. I've been having the same problem. I keep it narrowed down to two bikes for now even though I own three. I haven't taken the new Bandit to work yet, because people will say "Gee, another motorcycle? Where you getting all the money?".........whereas if I showed up in a new Ford Exploder or a Chevy Subturban, nobody would even notice, not to mention that one of those things costs over thirty grand most of the time. It's a nice problem to have, though, and I still really like the KLR.....it is one great and reliable bike (at least mine has been). It's been getting presents while it's sitting in the living room. New Explorer tankbag, yesterday. Backroad Bill at home, where it's Christmas all the time lately

Ditto.. using an old Ford van to haul the klx to the riding areas, '88 car and a '92 pickup... Ilike to have my money tied up in bikes...'98 Concours, '00 KLR, '93 KLX650R, '70 Suz T500 Titan For the weekend trail events I take both the kLX and the KLR so I can do 'different' kinds of riding.

Yup., very good chance that the 10amp fuse is gone. Replace it with a 15amp. No problems. -- Best Regards & Happy Trails Andy Chesley @ 57 and ticking in Jennings in SW Louisiana Y2KLR650 @ 7+K sMiles 97 R11RA (Amiga) @ 16+K sMiles So Many Roads, So Little Time http://members.deltech.net/aches/
