I had one for about a year. To tell the truth, I don't know why I got rid of it. I miss going off road every now and then. The black one is looking good. I might just be back on a KLR soon.

I have changed mine. It was fine, but I feel better. My buddy wanted to change his as well. So we did the job. The hikee was fine and the spring was fine, but. The aluminum case where the hickee is supposed to slide against when you go to do an adjustment was nicked. Probably by the factory because his bike only had 3000 miles and the case had not been opened since it left the factory. You could take the adjustment bolt all the way out and the hikee would not move. It was captured by the nick in the case. We did the upgrade and got a fine file and took the nick/burr out of the case to make the new hik slide easily, like it should. Just one more reason to open up the case and take a look at what you might have going on inside. Regards.
