On my god...you're thinking.
No, I probably won't be getting one of these, but I did enquire to Scott a while ago- I noticed an old post of yours regarding it. They said that it couldn't be done on a KLR, something to do with the ignition switch and the angle of the triple clamp. Now we both now 'can't' is a dirty word when it comes to the KLR, and staring at it, I don't see why you couldn't work around it. I'll dig up the reply sometime, just thought I'd let you know.

Does anyone know if someone makes a steering damper for the KLR 650.
When I get up to speed my front end shakes. What should I do?

Check your tire pressure and get a fork brace.

First, I would check out your bike. Sounds like something is wrong.
Culprits include: worn tires, wrong tire pressures, loose steering head
bearings, loose swingarm bearings, too low rear preload, mis-aligned wheels,
worn wheel bearings, bent frame.

Devon,
Will you send me the link for the source of your steering damper I was asking about at NOAB?
TIA
Guy

For a stock KLR front end, you might need to drill your own mounting
plate holes. An RM250 frame bracket fits pretty well (needs to be cut a
bit to clear a dual-star rad bar).

carb removing procedure?

Hey Joan--
For what it's worth, if you disconnect the necessary
cables and hoses and remove/loosen the hose clamps at
the airbox and intake, you can usually just twise the
carb out from between the two rubber tubes (airbox and
intake). Be careful to not be too brute, and make
sure when you put it back that you don't get filth in
either tube... but removing the subframe etc is
totally unecessary. As someone else said, you can
also twist the thing sideways to access a lot.
And as Jeff said, the diaphragm won't make you puke
gas, a stuck needle or sunk float will.
