Nice looking ride. I always liked the KLX. If Kawasaki put 17" wheels & sticky rubber on it I'd be seriously interested in getting one. Well, if I ever get my S40 paid off. :-/

That Bike is a beauty! Especially with the street tires on it ... if t'was mine tho, I'd loose the dirt-bike front fender and either run without it of fit a small bobbed street type fender.
Doubt if my short legs could handle flat-footing the KLX tho!

Yeah, but I agree with Perry about the front fender. I was looking at the Triumph 955 Tiger this afternoon. Nice Moto setup too.

Yep, I was in a Triumph shop today and got to sit on the Rocket III 2300. Whoa. What a drag bike.

I still like your bike, Clive 8)

I just saw an article on the Tiger in Roadbike magazine. That actually looks like a very nice jack-of-all-trades bike.

Yep, it kinda has that "Predator" look about it too.....

The one I saw had regular spoke tires, too. :o
