[dsn_klr650] more bark buster questions...

[Jim Cunningham]

I assume you have to remove the stock hand guards to use bark busters. Most of my riding is done at high altitude (10000ft+) where it is often cold, so the stock guards are nice for hand warmth. Where can you get "bark busters"? -----Original Message----- From: jmcclure1 [mailto:jmcclure1@...] Sent: Thursday, July 06, 2000 16:43 PM To: jimc@...
