[kennyMoto650]

Haha.......yeah, i know it sounds like its got it a problem or sounds very old tech but it just does everything I ask it to, I love the low down torque of 650's!

I love this one valve engine sound!!

[ghotioutofh2o]

@AndreyLead Umm.... KLRs are 4-valve engines...

[AndreyLead]

@ghotioutofh2o Oops! I mean one cylinder) My mistake ha-ha!!!

[ghotioutofh2o]

@AndreyLead Haha. No worries. :-)

Any tips on getting the front wheel up? I've got a 94 and it just doesn't seem to have the guts left to do that.

[kennyMoto650]

@eveRideorg , Yep you gotta clutch it up with KLR's. best tip is to do several things at once, and that is: give it some rev's, drop the clutch and lean your body weight back. Helps if your clutch is in good working order and you drop a tooth off the C/S sproket and chain is adjusted.

awesome. If you ride a KLR it's good to know this. it just might happen!

[spacerconrad]

I used to do it all the time on my road bike (bicycle, that is...). Useful skill for curbs and roadkill. never tried it on on a motorbike though.

A good skill to learn. lots of guys hit the trails on a dual sport not knowing how to ride offroad. Simple but effective. video.

Nice work!

Now I wana see you jump it, land in a wheelie and ride it out ;)

[Propfrwrd]

Skillz...

[ghotioutofh2o]

You make that look so easy! Nice work!

Is that stock or have you done any engine mods?

[trabftw]

Not shabby man! I can't get my front end off the ground at all.

@trabftw Punch in "Longest KLR Wheelie" It'll make you sick!

[trabftw]

@captsullivan Wow... That's just ridiculous.
