nklr who was looking for super sherpas?
I think it might have been Reverend Chuck who was looking for a
Sherpa. I was sitting around watching GP racing on speedvision and
saw an ad for epowersports.com and thought I would check it out. So I
go there, and what do you know? They are a m/c dealer. Looks like
they have 2000 Sherpas and KLR650s for sale. Follow the link to Dirt
Bikes and then Kawasaki ( I am sure you could have figured this out)
Good prices too. Sherpa $3495 and the 650 for $4447. I know nothing
about these guys or their shipping charges, just passing along what I
found.

Good Luck,
