The attached website list bikes that have been repod or have been in accidents and have been written off by the insurance company as a total. There is a 2007 KLR in Georgetown Texas that doesn't look like it has too much damage on it, that is being sold as a salvage total. The sales are auctions, and the auction closes today at 12noon. Current price is $1272. I have no affiliation with this site, just thought if someone wanted a cheap bike, and could do some work it might be a fit.

Interesting as quite a few of these bikes have low, low miles and the photos for the 'Totaled' items don't look that bad at all. Must not take much for an insurance company to total a bike!

Oops! 6,500 miles (not 65K miles), as noted by Dooden. ________________________________ From: V III To: art ; DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, July 8, 2009 4:55:41 PM Subject: Re: [DSN_KLR650] 2007 KLR 7800 miles for sale- this has beenin an accident They also have a 2008 repo with appx 65K miles starting at $400 (+$350 transaction fee) in IN.

While I don't exactly share Jeff's disdain (grin) for hard cases - I had great sets of Givis on a Transalp & DL1000 - , I do agree that the added weight on such a relatively small bike like the KLR is something to be considered. A set of racks and hard cases weigh in as much as the tent, sleeping bag, cookset, stove, etc... I'd be taking on a camping trip. Maybe more. Or, like Jeff, I can cram a ton of gear in a nylon bag, strap it to the bike and be gone with ease. For little money and an uncluttered, unmodified bike when I don't need luggage, the price was right to go without hard bags for once. Last week, the shop got in a catalog with a neat nylon travel bag from Saddlemen : Their TS3200S Deluxe Tail Bag. {Going into commercial mode here, sorry.} It looked good on paper, so I ordered one. It's just under $100 retail and about $80 at cost. Once it arrived, I saw where the money went. It's big, expandable, has useful pockets, lots of included quick release buckle/straps for mounting options, D-rings galore for tying on stuff and even comes with a built-in water bottle holder that folds up and velcroes out of the way when not being used. The bottom has a channel down the middle so it sits over the back seat to help hold it in place. The cloth in that portion is kinda rubberized to keep it from sliding around like, well, nylon on vinyl. I thought it came with a rain cover in it's own little 4"X4" pouch. Only after I got home did I realize it's actually a small duffle bag that comes into being when you unzip the pouch. Need extra storage? Pop that sucker out, fill and tie it on the main bag. I put a Eureka Solitaire tent, my cook things, hammock, summer weight sleeping bag, ground cloth and a change of clothes in the big bag and it was nowhere near full. There's room for food, tools, water - you name it! Cinch straps compress the load to steady the bag on the bike and it even creates a slight backrest for me when I'm riding. eddie
