Dreaming about adding to the garage; I have a soft spot for thumpers so would love to add a kawasaki klr...

My son-in-law just bought a new '06 KLR650 in that color about two weeks ago. I might even get a chance to ride it this weekend.

Give me a full report, will ya? In Canada, they are coming in a dark red colour, almost burgundy - it looks killer!!

Red, I just noticed I'm not even welcome on this BBS. There's no 650 cc mentioned in the opening credits on banditalley.com!!

Say it ain't so, Joe!!

I didn't know you had a 650. That might explain a lot.

Interesting post script.

The guy I bought my Bandit off of used the proceeds to buy a KLR650. He rides that more than his FJR1300. I don't quite understand the draw, but my cheesy butt hasn't ever rode a dirtbike before. He LOVES it.

Jim, on this side of the border, we get it in that same red, or you can opt for Kawasaki Green. According to Kawasaki Canada, you do, too.

My son-in-law could have got a much better deal on a red one. Seems every area Kawi dealer had red ones in stock, but only one dealer had one in green - and they happen to be the biggest and most overpriced dealer around. (Still puzzles me how they can be the biggest when they're the most overpriced.) He had to have green and didn't like the red at all... so they took him to the cleaners. He's happy with it though, and that's worth something, I guess.

gotta dream!

That's how it starts. Before you know it, you'll be looking for a new house with a big(ger) garage or shop so you have somewhere to keep all your bikes!

Oh, and I voted yes!
