Hello List: The the past 4.5 years, I have learned that there is an impressive depth of knowledge/experience about many subjects among the readers that I have found to be very useful. Knowing that as a given, I come with an non-KLR problem, er, at least, it is problem of this KLR rider, that I am certain someone here has encountered, and successfully overcome. I have been given a Dr's final diagnosis, "no physiological reason for your (belly) pain." sigh. Not very useful to the KLR rider...who is not so easily convinced. I won't bore you with the details, suffice to say, I been poked and prodded, and have had an extensive wallet biopsy done as well. These are my questions: Is there a protocol for obtaining a 2d medical opinion? How do I get the recent 'stress test' and cat-scan and other blood test taken by one doctor forwarded to another? Does the Dr./ medical facility that did these test now 'own' those images? Is it normal for a 'clinic' to not allow you access to your own chart? ie, they will not allow you to see/read what is written in a record about yourself? How do I get a copy of my chart? Thanks. Please respond off line. revmaaatin.

FYI, Just received my newest issued of Cycle World and they have an article on a diesel 650KLR. It gets around 100 MPG...however the bike is not due out until next year at an est. $18K plus cost. I believe they said there would be around 200 made. You would have to put a lot of miles on it to make up for the purchase price cost difference.
