a-17 for sale or trade ? re "a#" associations

Post by Michael White » Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:35 pm

IN reading from the KLR650 FAQ; Quote: What is this "An" people keep mentioning? This is a letter code that indicates the submodel and year of the bike. "A" bikes are for the US market, B is the Tengai, and C is the Canadian/European model. The number represents the year of manufacture, with 1 as the first year. An "L" at the end of an A designation means that it is a California bike (with a smog cannister). The first year of the A model was 1987, so an A5L is a 1991 California-spec US bike. I figured out that my 98 would be an A16? But in this listing the association of an A-17 is to a 2003? Will some one please explain this to me? Thanks Michael D.

I have this '03 model, great shape with new D-604's, Kawasaki high windshield, tank bag, soft saddlebags, JC Whitney trunk, custom built guards for the bags, throttle lock, just a nice bike with a couple small scratches. Not beat to death, I used this mostly on the street and highways, back and forth to work. 5900 miles, with 3 oil changes and dealer service. I have a clear Oregon title, but the bike is currently in Texas City, TX, about 45 miles South of Houston. Looking to get around $3800, but will be reasonable, or I'll trade up for a nice Jeep Wrangler. E-mail me off list if interested, I can send pics of anything you might want to see.

Thank you. I will try that when I try to install the carb again. I was wondering if there was some trick to make those grommet things more pliable. I tried oil but it wasn't enough.
