FWIW, it is my favorite bike on the fleet for yay-happy-fun-days off. I just have to be more aware of where the gas stations are when we are in bum-fuck-nowhere. Well, maybe it's just my love for it as it is the bike that got me this job...

I will agree I was disappointed in the fact that the tank is so small... and damn the TT tank is 1. but fucking ugly... and 2. ungodly expensive.

to be honest... throw the Verseys motor in the current KLR with some upgraded suspension and you have a PERFECT bike. 6 gal of gas, a Twin that gets 45-60mpg (again varied reports) throw in a 400W stator... and boom..

if Kawi could do it with out making it hideous... I'd buy it! FWIW I think the current KLR is a good looking bike. (just wished both headlights came on for Hi and low... isn't that a weight saving thing from sport bikes anyways?)
