KLR 650 shopping

[stevewfl]

I'm shopping for a late model/low mile cheap frugal KLR 650 to ride to an ADV meet at Death Valley. If anyone hears of anything in FL/GA/etc worthy of thumping across the USA please let me know.

SteveJ of the C10 forum has been such an bad influence inspiration to me.  Shortly after purchasing my C14 and meeting SteveJ at some event or another listening to the wild stories, the sport-touring bug hit me.  3 years and 79,000 miles later its still game on. Then I saw an old dead-looking beater KLR in Steve's garage as we met there before a COG RTE. I asked "does that thing run"  He said yeah I'm riding that to California" (we're in middle FL).  I didn't believe him disagree but i didn't exactly buy into that happening 

So I was going to ride the Connie14 out west and try camping with the guys meeting at Death Valley and me stay on the tourist trap good roads .  Naw, I think I'll find a KLR.

Attn SteveJ:  I'm planning to do a bit more than just ride it out there, I'm going to attempt an Iron Butt on it.

So unless I fall in love with the KLR and decide to keep it instead of the Euro ADV bike coming in my future, the events will happen like this:

     1) KLR pic will be in this thread
     2) Pics of the ride out to Death Valley and tons of other places in the southwest will be in the "rides" section
     3) KLR pic will then be in the "For Sale" section

Good choice, KLR is hard to beat for the money. Here's a pic of a KLR doing what it does best:

Too funny. Sell that KLR out in LaLa land if you can make it work, you should get more for it.

I actually may not go over there this year for my annual California dose. Toying with the idea of sledding in Yellowstone instead.
