A bigger displacement bike will me much nicer on the highway, with the added power, and the added weight. However, you will lose some of the dirt prowess of the sherpa when you switch to a heavier, more street oriented motorcycle. For a great overview of the klr, check out the FAQ at http://www.bigcee.com/klr650faq.html . If youre doing more street than dirt riding, or youre an experienced thunmper rider, dont hesitate to get the 650. But if youre new to heavy bikes in the dirt, be careful with the 650. Also, 2 up riding will be much more feasible on the 650 than on the 250. 250=dirt bike 650=dirt and street bike. Welcome to the board, the klr community is a friendly and helpful one, and youll like it if you stick around. See ya.
