Wow.... not including fuel, insurance and registration, it cost that guy approximately $12.92 a mile to own it! I just love all the class-A morons who buy a new bike and sell it shortly after stating, "It's not what I thought it would be." I'm surprised he didn't also manage to take a hit on about $1,200 worth of add-ons & upgrades installed before mile 10. Mark At 7:37 PM -0400 6/4/08, Bob Monahan wrote:

I'm sorry, but the above information is incorrect. 15/43 is stock gearing. For more low end, DROP a tooth in front (14t), for lower rpm at speed, go up a tooth in front (16t). I've found the 15 tooth front o work best overall, I only go to the 14t for a ride I know will be a lot of off road and/or sand. I've never used a 16t, I don't see the need to ride my KLR over about 75 mph for a stretch, or 85mph top speed. It's not built for 100mph, I reckon. Thanks CA Stu A13
