Ok, the friggin paperwork that I needed to do with the court is now done, and I can officially sell Jake's KLR. I am informed that a fair asking price, as equipped, is about $3,500 (or reasonable offer). The bike is in my garage, in Northern Utah, and appears to be in great working order. I would guess that the doohickey surgery has been done. It has the hard traveling cases attached. Please email me at chris@... (my hotmail account is currently on the fritz), or call 801-388-8570. First preference will be given to the individual who contacted me earlier this summer, but whose contact info I seem to have misplaced. Thank you!
