Just use Mobil 1 15/50 and you never need to switch. --- harleybob46@... wrote:

Howboucha Dual-Sporters! I am gearing up for a great trip of dual-sporting in Colorado on August 6th to....... I recently aquired an extremely clean 1981 KL250, and my buddies who have gone to Colorado before, have told me to take it instead of my KLR650. I could take both, but I want to eliminate pulling the bikes on my trailer, and just carry one on my hitch rack on my Rover. I am looking for advice on getting my 250 prepped for the elevation and terrain. So if any of you know of some great sites for KL250's, I would appreciate it. Also, I am getting ready to finalize the course for the Society for the Preservation of Motorcyclists, Howboucha.com TT200 Dual Sport adventure here in Indiana. It will be held on Labor Day. If any of you are interested in joining us, please send me an e-mail. The course is designed for bigger dual sport machines, and couples, etc. Basically a ride for real dual-sport machines, and not a KDX with a plate from your buddies gold wing strapped on. :) Keep two wheeling, Brendan Kearns http://www.howboucha.com bkearns@... 1997 KLR650 1981 KL250 and a bunch of other stuff.
