And the Lord said, I will build a motorcycle for the tall and the large among you, and I will make it a bargain for the soul. I will call it KLR for "kinda large rider" and it will come from a faraway land in great multitudes. There shall be hardship, it will be born with an original shortcoming called doohicky. Smart men will pray for tech days and bless those who minister to them. People will wonder if it is fish or fowl, arguing it's virtues for generations. Wise men will understand from whence it came and what it can do. The competition will try to copy it's strengths but fail. False gods from Germany with boxer engines will imitate but cannot compete for the heart of the common man. People will doubt it's claims but become believers in their own time. And it shall reign for ever and ever growing in wisdom and farkles, and the fairing will point the way of the road less traveled. Capt. Bob in Durham, CT. USA Capt. Bob in Durham, CT.

Nice verse Bob, but you're re-writing a bit of history. The boxer- engined R80G/S predates the the mighty KLR, debuting in the year 7 B.K. __Arden

Hi Chromatech 1, Sorry, Not Just Buddhist Japan, from ~2003+, It is Thailand. Stop kicking sand in the sandbox: The KLR chaplain thinks that these are Kinda harsh words for someone hiding behind a moniker. Bob was writing a lyrical prose, not theology. Just curious, how much/how many of the things in your home were made in child-labor sweat shops of Japan/China/Mexico/Pakistan/India/adnaseum? revmaaatin. yes, that's my title-name and mjearl is a real person.

Sorry, hit the wrong button. As I was saying: Let's not get to serious guys over my waxing poetic. If I thought that I was going to publish a serious work, I would have taken more time. My post was meant to be funny, not factual, not serious, not informative, and certainly not worthy of serious criticism. I am comfortable in the role of "Court Jester", we all should laugh at ourselves from time to time...prevents really taking ourselves too seriously. For the record, my post was certainly not blasphemy as I would never do anything to insult the best friend that I have in the this world and the next. Capt. Bob in Durham, CT.

John, Thank you for the response. From the previous response(s), I was unable to connect all the thoughts, made clear to me now. We are in heated agreement, and my apologies if I appeared to be over zealous in my last response. Congratualtions on your 10 years of success. Just curious, what is a Chromatech? revmaaatin.
