Got the subscription last month. Got the Gino years. I highly recommend the Gino series for anyone that wants to either maintain their KLR themselves or wants to modify... Answers all questions like p/n's for jet kit, what's good luggage, pipe, handle bar, tires, shock, etc, etc. GET IT! And thanks to all that answered my chain question. Glenn Tompkins

I find the same discrepency between my gps (mounted with RAM and using bike power) and my speedo. The analog overshoots by about 7 percent or so. I believe manufacturers like Kawi do this to protect themselves from lawsuits about speeding tickets and what not. Or the government pays them to do it. Anyway, its nice to get that extra 5 or so extra miles an hour! Ian A7
