Although the 2022 Kawasaki KLR650 has been refined from the second-generation model with Keihin fuel-injection, ABS options, and an updated rear frame and swingarm, we knew there were some parts and accessories that the KLR needed to make it a more comfortable and capable adventure bike.

Still a KLR. Lovable, workable, two wheeled utility tool.

I installed the low profile drain bolt and marked it to which side points forward. Then ground a sloped edge. It slides over rocks even more. Doesn't effect using a Allen tool to remove it.

I am about to purchase a 2023 KLR650 adventure. New rider, new owner, very excited and great video. Thank you for posting.

Perhaps the biggest surprise is that a young rider is riding one 😊🇦🇺 looks great.

i thnk first thing i would change is the exhaust the stock exhaust weighs a ton and gets super hot

[sportstermissions]

It's not all of the test rides, or the reviews of the KLR, but this video right here that convinced me to buy a KLR! Iove all of the customization options! I checked the prices on your website and they are pretty affordable too! Great video! 👍

You guys HAD to post this video! I'm ordering these accessories as we speak.

Can confirm the IMS shifter was a game changer. I tried several (as I hadn't seen this video), and it was the difference of being able to fit my Corazol boot in there or not.

This is exactly what I'm looking for. One of each item please! lol I have a '22 KLR and am starting my build. The only thing that I've seen on other builds is the suspension upgrade. I guess that makes a huge difference. Glad you covered the seat concepts seat. That stock seat sucks and is my first thing to change. Thanks for a great video.

Moving to Utah in September and plan on buying & building a KLR...Can't wait!!

I just purchased a 2024 ABS. Never rode a bike before in my life. I'm very happy with my purchase and looking forward to training and training and practicing until I'm a fully competent rider.

The D sports are awesome tires. The front can be a little “wandery” for lack of a better term in the first hundred or so miles, but I’ve literally dragged foot peg on my klr with them on the street. And when I say “literally” I mean *literally, * not exaggerating.

I’m looking forward to trying the 2 tracks, especially when a klr sized rear tire is added.

[rebelarcher]

Definately you should up weight the suspension, and some braided steel brake lines to get the most out of the average at best calipers

You know I saw that intro pic of this KLR effortlessly on the back wheel and I thought to myself, "Well there'd have to be a decent lifter there." :). I have a fondness for this bike, but power is not one of its strong points.

[Heartlanddualsport]

Nicely done guys. I think you did a great job on this video and build. I agree with most everything you have installed on this bike build. Thanks again Josh and keep up the great work on this bike.

Great build as always RM ATV! Going to be purchasing another KLR soon. Will spec with many of your suggested upgrades. TUSK products are exactly what I am looking for in my build. Cheers from CA!

[thorsmith]

Just bought a 23 KLR. This video is just what I was hoping to find. Would be nice to see a list of all these mods. Now about those performance

[onerider]

Glad to hear the Olympus tank bag is good; I bought one with no experience of it. I’d get the soft panniers if I didn’t have Kawie hard cases already.

[AR-egwe]

Upgrading the top plate is pretty helpful.

[sanatandharma]

Excellent additions Gentleman! Discreeet, functional and aestheticallly pleasing.
