I accidentally bought a non-CA tank off eBay for my CA-model KLR. I've arranged to buy the CA model tank, now I need to get rid of this one. If you want it, it's $100 plus shipping if you're outside the San Diego area. Some pics are at: http://home.san.rr.com/misc1357/klrtank/

Why not just use it? The 2nd tube only feeds back to the Carbon filter on the left rear of the bike. If your still looking for a CA tank I have a 2000 from my bike I can sell. Make me an offer. Denis

I am soon going to be the proud owner of a 2003 C-model (European) KLR 650. That is, as soon as the shop manages to "unblock" the engine. In Switzerland, engines can be blocked (chip, carb or flaps) to 25kW for riders under the age of 25. It's also cheaper to insure such bikes. I found a fantastic KLR but only realized that its engine was blocked the day I was going to buy it (I'm currently in Zanzibar, Tanzania and my father's doing all the dealing and buying, and he didn't notice the lack of power or speed when he tried it out for me...). Anyways, within a few days the drama should be over and done with and I should have it rightfully on my name. Now comes the tricky part. Before shipping the beast down to Africa where it'll feel at home on pot-hole laden roads and offroad tracks, I'll be touring Europe for approximately 3 weeks with it. I've been looking into bags and the more I look into them the more confused I become... To begin with, all hard cases are absolutely OUT! There is no way I'm putting a big ugly plastic blob on my bike... I need something soft, waterproof, comfortable and practical. My dilemma is choosing between the magnetic tankbag or the tailbag. And if so, which (hoping that it may be available in Europe). No saddle bags or panier bags either though! Anyone have any useful advice? I'm currently looking at Oxford and Givi bags (if anyone knows them...). Thanks __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
