Owned a KLR before, nice rides but this time around plan is to stay with something lighter and less complicated. The 650 is air cooled so one less thing to worry about.
Tons of nice adventure bikes but don't want to go above $6k so that rules out most everything except the KLR and DR650. Plan on watching the sales and will most likely pick one up in the off season.
Rhino,
Love the ammo cans! Cheap, strong, waterproof, what a great idea.
