I've owned a 2003 since new. I bought it because at the time, and maybe still now, there were more people doing round-the-world rides on the KLR than any other bike. I've ridden across Canada twice and it definitely served the purpose. I was a lot younger then and said at the time I'd never ride that far again without at least a sheepskin on the seat. Still have it and will never sell it.

Soy de Argentina., tuve una de 1988 a mediados de los años 90. En el año 2012 tuve la fortuna de encontrarme y poder conversar en Cuzco, (Perú). con dos muchachos que venían desde USA en una KLR como la del video y una Honda Transalp, eran de Colorado según recuerdo. Tanto ellos como yo estábamos fascinados con esa máquina. hoy a mis 54 años sigo buscando una en buenas condiciones pero sus valores aquí son inalcanzables. Tengo una KLR 250 de 1993. pero nunca será lo mismo... Saludos!

I loved this bike as it was my first introduction to motorcycling. If you can find a low milage good condition gen 1, you can build up a nice fit for purpose bike at low cost. Just research the common problems and have them sorted out. Seeing this video made me long for my old one that served me so well. Safe

Looking fresh hardcore to i personally own a klr 650 C model dirt oriented and a lot of people be admiring the stock exhaust sound especially in road blocks where i just be sliding through. .

[DRAGONRIDER]

KLR is a great ride. Thanks for the video.

I had one when I lived in Africa in 1987, paradise on Earth!

Picking my 05' up in two days, I agree with you, most of these gen 1's have all the accessories and mods on, the previous owner did the Doo, progressive springs, pannier and crash bars, barkbusters hand guards, wider foot pegs etc...

[inglwud]

Wow I have the same 07 klr color and seargent seat kenda tires front n rear same guards and hi way foot pegs but original windscreen. I also have the tank bag and side bags that are on the crash bars and a luggage rack in place of the factory rack with bags. Everything else is stock with 17 k on the clock! Nice bike!

I had an 01 and put 50k miles on it in 2 yrs and I loved the bike took it all over the US and I have friends that still have them. I also have a 16 CRF1000 and love this bike even more and do a lot more off road then I felt I could on the KLR. 2 yrs ago Tym came for the weekend and I took him out on some of my fav trails he was on an 02 KLR650 and me on my 16 CRF1000 and he could not keep up at all. I switched bike and found out why. The CRF felt like it was 50lbs less then the KLR and it was so much easier to ride off and on road.
Not trying to piss anyone off but if you think you like or love the old or new KLR take the CRF1000 for a ride.

Keep talking your making my heart warm. Bike porn, but just the articles

[williamward]

Yea man !! I can never picture a reason to get rid of my '04. I'll maybe buy other bikes but not sell my KLR

[amado]

I own a 1988 Gen 1 and love my Bike, and yes the front break is mushy. Can someone please list the part number, or where to buy… for the front rotor, caliper if needed, and steel braided hose?

[jessbailey]

Nice job on this really made me think about this or the DR. Think I'll go with the KLR. Who makes those crash bars by the thanks!!!!

[guerguaa]

I like what you did to the muffler. What's that mod/part called?

[patriotrob]

Isn't that a 2006? I have a 2007 they came black and silver. The 06 was red and silver

[crypticreality]

Do you (does anyone) know why my front turning signals are reversed? When i push right, left goes on and vice versa.

[Solo_adv]

I live in Hawaii everything is more expensive here and i have a chance to get a used 2007 KLR 650 with only 2800 miles on it in very good shape. for $3, 500 the guy wants. Your thoughts I'm 56 years old and want to start riding again. Aloha

[spencervidal]

I have an 05, doing a total resto. mod. Biggest piece of shit I have ever owned!!!

[FelixBueno]

That bike is 400 lbs, why do you call it heavy?

[vironpayne]

I loved my Big Red KLR, squishy suspension and all. After it was stolen I rode a 650 vStrom for a few years. Now I am on a modded 2018 Camo KLR that is modded with over $3000 of parts, and I am loving it!
