2023年1月11日 · If you want a Japanese 650 that’s made for the dirt, this is the bike you want. The XR is light (349 lb wet weight) compared to the DR650 (366 lb wet weight) and KLR (456 lb wet weight). With 13 inches of ground clearance, it’s much better-suited for off-road than either the the Suzook or the Kawi competition, and the suspension is better ...

2024年1月16日 · A 2023 KLR 650 starts at $6,899.00. The KLR 650 is great value machine. And today, we’re super proud to offer our “home-cooked” KLR-based adventure touring sidecar, the LBS-Sidecars USA PakMul – a complete KLR adventure rig built to same standards and attention to detail as our BMW line-up, at one-third the cost.

2004年7月8日 · A DR650 or XR650L would be a big step up in off road ability from a KLR (IMO), but still very much dual sport bikes and very street worthy in stock form. A XR650R dual sported would be a bit more uncivilized, but is very capable off road, much more so than the XR-L or DR.

The old KLR was more than 20 pounds lighter, and even that bike was a bit heavy for a thumper. Would the new machine just be too porky? Once I got my helmet on and took off, I discovered the answer was—the new KLR650 is just fine, even with the added heft.

2023年9月18日 · The Doohickey is just a common name for the KLR650’s idler shaft lever. This is a stamped piece of metal that helps keep tension on the counter-balancer chain mechanism with the help of a spring. This assembly has been an issue …

2021年9月3日 · As typical for a KLR, gears shift smoothly, even without the clutch, though it’s a bit tougher to find neutral with the engine off. However, stated reliability improvements include revised third-gear dogs and shift fork, and a “shaved finishing” on fourth and fifth gears, which sounds like it belongs on a gentleman’s Monday morning face.

2011年8月25日 · The KLR has this same issue but at a different frequency. A set of ProGrip 714's reduced it to manageable levers. The DL is a bit tighter and cramps me a bit but is OK if I stop when I need to stretch. The fit/finish/quality of the DL is better than the KLR. The KLR is stone simple and can be fixed at any dealer or machanic shop though the US.
