Jim, Get pissed. : ) My factory manuals are: '84 KLR600 Motorcycle Service Manual Part Number 99924-1050-01 1987-2003 KLR650/KLR500 Motorcycle Service Manual Supplement Part Number 99924-1080-59 These are the manuals sold by Kawasaki in 2003 for my bike. I think the base manual is the same but the supplement gets updated each year. I'll send you a picture of the section off list. Best, Jeff Saline ABC # 4412 South Dakota Airmarshal Airheads Beemer Club www.airheads.org The Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota 75 R90/6, 03 KLR650, 79 R100RT On Sun, 8 Jan 2006 13:12:33 -0800 jim bush writes: Jeff. What a bummer. I don't have a Clymer's Manual. But I had conflicting info. I bought the PDF version of the manual on ebay. Page 11-9 of this Base Manual, DOT NUMBER 5 says, "With the fork fully extended, insert a tape measure or thin rod in the fork...". If this is wrong then I defiantly overloaded. The front cover is that of the KLR 600. Since they came together I assumed that the 650 was built off the 600. Is yours a KLR 650 Base manual? If so I'm going to be a little PISSED and spread my lack of joy to the company who sold it to me. Her is a pict of the manual.

If you like reading about trust-funders crashing expensive bikes and inflated ego's you'll love AdvRider.com It is a nice site if you don't mind wading through all the fluff though. West
