what's one more tire question?! i recently purchased a pirelli mt21 for
the rear; 130/90-17. is this sucker going to fit, or do i need to
return it for the 120/90-17 before proceeding any further? what i've
got here looks pretty wide...thanks in advance for your knowledge.

The standard size for the rear is 130/80-17, so you're very close to
standard. What size was on there before? Don R100, A6F

Not really. The KLR has enough room to let me pack a reasonable tool kit, as well as a couple
of changes of underwear. I wouldn't be cutting my tools back that much unless I were already
down to a single spare pair of skivvies.
