Contrary to what some think about the easy nature of the KLR 650, I'm sorry to say that the heavy weight and ass hight to a giraffe nature of the beast doesn't serve the broken or less physically inclined. It may be underpowered and forgiving, but still can be very demanding, expecially if your use to thrashin a little bike through the rough. If you get a Hoss KLR, take it easy and have fun, but take it easy.. and have fun.....but take it easy...... Have fun! HHHAAAAAAARRRRR! Rod, I am, and I'm pretty much decreped....and can't spell! --- In DSN_klr650@yahoogroups.com, "jamboazzr1200" wrote:

All depends whatcha call acting your age. Looking at turning 50 next year, my right ankle was rebuilt in '77, the left in '79, right knee in '89, left shoulder in '99, the right knee for a second time in '99 (*&%$#!*&^ cager) ad next year I hope to get back into dirt bike racing next summer. My last race was two days before being hit in '99 and I'm missing it. BTW, I've got a DRZ400 and KLR. Pat G'ville, Nv [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
