Nitpicking 101: The KLR600 was in production from 1984 through 1986. In 1987, the KLR650 was introduced. Although the bikes are very similar, I'm not sure if the forks are an easy swap between them. Sorry, no real help there. Do check the VIN and mfr plate on the bike to get a proper ID on the make and year. Good luck, MarkB

650 forks will fit on a 600, but I'm pretty sure you'll also need to use the 650's brake caliper. Mark At 12:09 AM +0000 10/1/03, kcuf_oohay_666 wrote:
