I checked out the KLR Timeline link that someone put up. Is it just
me, or is the A1 the hottest looking KLR? I've never seen one
before - I wonder how many are still kicking around? I'm not going
to comment on the model year that I thought was the ugliest - I don't
want to offend any fellow KLRers out there.

Dang right it is. Kinda sorry I sold mine, but it had too many things
that needed fixing. The A2 wasn't bad, either. Now I've got a boring
color that even purple fork booties won't liven up--but she's a
strong runner.

Everyone knows the Malibu Ken A9 model was the ugliest...

But I do belive that was the year the KLR got some mechanical
modifications as a saving grace...hehe

Welllllll, I didn't want to mention it around such a bunch of macho
dudes, but I've got the purple grips, too. And white Acerbis hand
guards courtesy of the former owner. It's kinda Easter-Eggy but at
least I can find my bike in a crowd. Nobody's made fun of it...yet.
I checked Pat's site and I could live with just about anything but
the A9.

As the owner of an A9, I'd have to say it is the ugliest my far. I bought
the thing to ride, not to look at, so appearance isn't that high on the
list........ Besides, from a rides view, I not blinded by yellow and purple,
so no big deal.
I've gotten rid of the purple fork boot recently when I did the seals. The
next to go it the purple seat when it gets redone. Next spring I'm going to
ditch the yellow and purple graphics. I looks like Walt Disney puked all
over my bike!
Anyone ever experiment with making there own stickers? I'm know my way
around Photoshop and have some ideas, but am unsure how to get them on the
bike. Any ideas?

Subject: $1 Pay
A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot. One day a
construction crew turned up to start building a
house on the empty lot. The young family's 6 year old daughter naturally
took an interest in all the activity going on next door and started
talking with the workers. She hung around and eventually the construction
crew - gems in the rough all of them - more or less adopted her as a kind
of project mascot.
They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and
lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here and there to make her
feel important. At the end of the first week they even presented her with
a pay envelope containing a dollar.
The little girl took this home to her mother who said all the appropriate
words of admiration and suggested that they take the dollar pay she had
received to the bank the next day to start a savings account. When they
got to the bank the teller was equally impressed with the story and asked
the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a young
age. The little girl proudly replied, "I've been working with a crew
building a house all week."
"My goodness gracious," said the teller, "and will you be working on the
house again this week too?"
"I will if those useless cocksuckers at the lumber yard ever bring us the
fuckin' drywall," replied the little girl.
Was gl nzt, is f r den Augenblick geboren,
Das Echte bleibt der Nachwelt unverloren.

Ugliest? What with that high vis neon turquoise contrast with the royal puke
purple retro 60's color scheme? Fashion for the starving.
