Hello to all, I am posting this for a friend that is just starting to shop for a KLR. He is located in San Diego. .... "Hi all, I'm in the market for a recent previously owned Kawasaki KLR650 dual-purpose. I went down to SD House of Motorcycles, who are advertising one. It is a 2001 model, with some paintwork damage (looks like sun-fading) and which had clearly been down at least once (what did I expect, it's a dp bike?). But they were asking $4,600 for it - for a complete stocker! The list price for a new bike is $4,999, and Kelley Blue Book reckons it's worth only $4,225 in pristine condition. If anyone knows of an alternate source, I'd be very interested, and grateful. Simon"............................. I agreed with him that I thought that was a bit high! Thanks for any help, Kathleen Lake Elsinore, CA. A13 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Hi Kathleen, Callaway Motorsport in Riverside has a used 2002 with 1100 miles on it, they were offering it for $3800 I think. Guy bought it thinking he would do more dirt, changed his mind and traded it back in for a streetbike. Thanks Stu Mumford Riverside CA

The 2003 models are coming out in July (next month). $4600 seems way too high for a used droped KLR especially in San Diego. I have seen other used bikes as much a $1000 lower then here in SF Bay ARea North California. My local dealer still has two 2002 models for sale. I think out the door price is $5750.00. He's the cheapest and best Kawi dealer around.

Kathleen, tell him to check cycletrader.com. I found mine on there for a great price. I had to drive 150 miles to pick it up, but the deal was well worth it. You might get lucky and find one local. Ed A15

After 2 months in & out of hospital, I guess I will sell my 2000 KLR? NEW condition with around 3300 miles and kept in my home garage. Extra's include: SuperTrapp ISDN Quiet Series Exhaust/K&N ReJetting/Russell Daylong Touring Leather Saddle(just dyed Black) / Tims Highway pegs / Tims Pannier Racks/ Clearview 13" Taller & wider Fairing . May be more, can't remember? Dealer serviced. Bike never scratched or abused. Used mostly on road except for a few fire roads around Lake Elsinore area and Ortega Highway. Pictures are at my website at: http://members.cox.net/oldtimer2/Motorcyles.htm (but the seat is now Black). Price $3995.00 FIRM. Mike Cartwright

A big thanks to all who responded to my earlier post regarding my friend looking for a used KLR. He just e-mailed me that he got one. Stu, Callaway no longer has that KLR for sale. And I sure would like to be able to tell this new KLR owner to subscribe to the list. Kathleen Lake Elsinore, CA. KLR A13 TDM '92 CB400A '78 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Good for him. Now maybe I won't really sell my beloved KLR! I hope he get this group as well. Learned so much here! Mike

How funny! Did he buy it? I hope so, and I hope he calls them and tells them Stu Mumford sent him, they have my KLR in the shop and I am going to owe them $1k. (Oversize piston, new valves, etc. etc. basically a whole new top end). Help! It was in the classifieds at recycler.com today, and is in the current print edition of Cycle Trader! A guy that works for me had the Cycle Trader, and of course I gotta check up on them used KLR prices...

I think a whoole lot of members found this list on their own, and are darn glad they did. Me for instance. Thanks Stuart Mumford

I'm planning on buying a new KLR650 in a couple of weeks (when I have the cash) and the dealer will give me 15% of any accessories I buy at the same time. I know some of you in the past have suggested some mods, but I was wondering if there are any that should be done immediately. I rode one with a supertrapp exhaust on it, but didn't like it because of the noise. It seemed to have a lot of power though. Thanks for your help everybody and thanks to those that replied to my other recent queries. Rob
