Comments:
Kawasaki’s KLR650, take a bow. Come on, stand up and take a bloody bow. Yes, you’ve been derided in certain circles and far too often overlooked, but for sheer longevity and ability to provide faithful service you’re one of the greats. This low Klm KLR650 is ready for any adventure and features upgrades such as heated grips and top box. How many models can anyone name that have lasted as long as the KLR? It was released way back in 1987 which, to give some perspective, was the year the first mobile phone call was made in Australia. The KLR has survived all this time with minimal changes. And guess what? It’s one of the biggest-selling bikes in the adventure market year after year. Not even U2 have had chart success like that. The KLR is bigger than Rick Astley, who started and finished in the 80s. It’s more successful than grunge, which died out in in the 90s, and it’s lasted longer than the Black Eyed Peas. That’s means only the Red Hot Chili Peppers can compete with the KLR650 but they went through eight guitarists along the way. So, yes, please direct all applause towards the KLR650 in acknowledgment of its long and devoted service. It deserves it. It’s earned it. The KLR is surprisingly nimble, with an excellent and tight turning circle and easy to ride through slower speed trails and tricky terrain, but its true home is on the more open tracks where it’s pretty hard to pick holes in the overall ride.
