KLR 250 Project

Today, a 1989 KLR 250 followed me home. Looking all sad in the driveway, I took pity on her, and allowed her to come inside the garage. She has battle scars, a few dings and dents, but she has potential. Well, in my eyes she does. Needless to say, not all members in my household agree with me.

The little KLR came to mind when I searched for a smaller woods bike that I could still drive on the road to my destination. I hate dragging things on a trailer, so having a bike that can have a license plate makes things much easier. While the 250cc engine is no power house, I think it will do just fine in the woods. Right now, just sitting on her, the bike feels so light compared to my G650GS.

So, here she is.



Battle scars :)   

Okay, so now the decision has to be made.  If I end up not keeping her, I'm sure someone out there is looking for KLR 250 parts.

To rebuild or not to rebuild?
