newbie's first impression gets reversed!!!!
Posted: Sat Aug 18, 2001 9:45 pm
Ok, earlier this week I posted my (mostly) negative first impression of
the klr650 after testing riding one in Conroe, Texas.
KLRLista Jim Barthell in nearby Flower Mound, Texas read my note and took
it upon himself to "show me the way". He invited me to test ride his bike!
I did and I was very quickly won over. Jim's obvious efforts to "perfect"
they bike showed, as his bike ( which was 2 years older, but only 2,000
miles more on the odo ) was what I was hoping to find - a bigger, better,
newer bike than my departed nx250.
And then Jim quoted me a price that would convince him to sign the title
over to me. Very cool!
I slept on the offer and then emailed him to find that title because this
was gonna happen. We met Friday night and exchanged dollars for hardware.
Consider me to be one convinced newbie.
