[dsn_klr650] air filter screen

[Rich Kickbush]

I wonder if its possible to interchange certain parts between the two - for example, are the frames the same? Could you take the entire fork assembly and change that over? Does anyone in BC know a dealer who has one on the floor? I saw it at the Bike Show and would really like another look. Rich Walter Lesnowich wrote:

I didn't have much choice on my 600, the parts where the screen was tack welded onto the filter frame rusted and the screen fell off in my hand.

Er, maybe. It didn't hurt my bike to lose it. Mister_T
