Please keep your eyes and ears peeled for my 2002
KLR 650 which was stolen overnight from the
Bothell, Wa. area.
License #702766 VIN JKAKLEA112DA02370
It is basically stock with the following
upgrades:
Dual Star radiator guard
Dual Star master cylinder guard
Dual Star brake pedal bracket
Dual Star shift lever
Dual Star low vibration mirrors
420 shock
Renthal aluminum bars
Black gel grips
Progressive fork springs (obviously can't be
seen)
Two outer case bolts have been replaced with
stainless steel hex head bolts (I gave two of the
stock ones to Greg S.)
Thanks for your help in keeping an eye out for my
bike.

Wow Kelley,
I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Hope you can pull some strings to
get it tracked down. Was it at your house or elsewhere when it got
pinched?
I can't beleive the criminals will even steal from a m/c cop!!!!
Here's hoping your search goes better than mine did.
dat brooklyn bum (seems like a real waste to risk jail time for a
bike that can bought new for $5k or used for as little as $1k but
then again, maybe that's why I'm not a thief)

Tumu,
The bike was not parked at my house or it would
have been in the garage. Austin had ridden it to
his mom's because I was working on the 89 which
he usually rides. Not much string pulling can be
done. I would guess it's in Yakima or somewhere
like that by now. Now comes the fun part of
haggling with the insurance company and trying
not to get beat up too bad. Oh well!!! Life
continues. Take care.
Kelley.........

might go vigilante on them for my 89 that was stolen. Brian A

I've been fortunate as well in that the stock seat is on amicable terms with
my arse. I do the same trick with the passenger pegs and have always used a
sleeping bag for a back rest. Since '96 I have done at least one officially
certified 1000 mile day and haven't had any problem getting back on the bike
the following day. Then again I did the Six Days of Michigan ride without a
hint of the dreaded monkey butt so maybe I have a bit of an iron arse.
