front end replacement (the new klrf-carpet)

Post by elblody » Mon Apr 19, 2004 6:22 pm

Gentlemen: I just finished the first part of the "KLR Better Front Suspension & Brakes Project" From the very begining I complained about the KLR650 front suspension bottoming , wobbling etc. (you know the feeling!!!) First I bought the progressive springs upgrade and after lots of hours working on the oil grade and level settings, I decided to change the front. This is, front forks/tire/rim/brakes. One ebay day I saw a complete Honda CRF450 new for sale "without" engine. ummmm Who is going to buy a chassis with no engine on it? Then I started to see a real bunch of CRF parts on ebay..... Well guess what? some people buy the CRF to build a quad racer out of it. And then Then I saw it clear....My KLR with a Brand new set of Showa Inverted Forks. This weekend I had opportunity to test drive my KLRF. The thing not only brakes better, but handles better in the rocks , mud, Sand and also the highway. Now I ride more comfortable, secure and happier than before. The second part is to install the topeak panoram computer and do the cosmetic job for the wires sw. and tach...and send you guys pictures.

Just ordered a couple items from them........should be here any day now. Really looking forward to the tapered sheepskin seat cover that Tumu liked for the long ride across Pennsylvania next week. Steve The Mule A17
