every time i see a pic on-line of this bike, it has a screen as part of the nose-cone. My 2001 model (Australian) doesn`t have this and all the aussie kwaka dealers just say "Duuuh, I don`t know," when I ask about it, so, does anyone know.. 1. Where I can get one? 2. Why my model doesn`t have one as standard?

Screen ? Windshield or the little plastic vent thats under the headlamp or a wire mire headlamp cover ? Dont think the Euro models have windshields, which makes me guess there are no mounting holes formed in the plastic. Just guessing however. Dooden

Sounds like you've got the C-series KLR650. This is the model that is exported everywhere *but* the US. I think that Canada is the only country that receives both our beloved A-series as well as the C-series. Does your bike have a 6.1 gallon tank? Or single piston front caliper? If I am correct this is your bike, right? http://www.kawasaki.com.au/mc/offroad/klr650/main.htm I don't think that the c-series frame has the fairing mount tab on the headstock for the A-type fairing. Consider yourself lucky, you've got better brakes and front suspension than the A-series. Z DC

Hey Frank, if you get an off-list reply, maybe you could post that information to the list? That DOES sound very useful!
