where to find if parts fit

[Don Montgomery]

Small O-Rings in carb - size and source. These are the ond in the idle scew assembly, the fuel and vent assemblies and the idel air valve assemble, May have missed one. If anyone has this info at hand or a link, I'd appreciate knowing what the sizes are and if True Value quality o-rings would be fuel resistant?

I am looking at a kl600 front wheel and the micro fiche doesn't look the same as the klr but there photo looks like it will work. They say the pic is of the item so not sure they know what they have? Are the 250 and 650 klr's some what interchangeable, wheels body parts ect. I did do several searchs before posting so hopefully I am not being redundant. > > I think you will find a lot of interchangeabilty between the 600 and the 250. Body parts, in particular, will swap right over. Controls, ditto. Wheels, axles, controls should go. I don't recall if the 250 has the nice alloy swingarm and eccentric adjuster of the 600, but it resembles the 650 not at all. > > Between the 250 and 650, there is a lot less cross-over. Almost no body parts, The front wheels will swap but the 250 brake rotor is slightly smaller. The 250's rear brake is a drum. I don't know if the main frames are similar, but the swingarms are entirely different, and I don't think the shocks will swap. > > You may be able to glean some info from parts lists and fiches, but the only way to know for sure is to try the parts for fit. >

To re-inforce Judds obsevation: The maintenace base manual is KLR600 with a KLR250 suppliment. The 97 has a eccentric, or snail-chain adjusters. Left and right controls look exactly like a 650. Wired the same? don't konw It also has a tiny 2.49g or 11L gas tank--except for the one in SD. It now has a KOLPIN 1 gal reserve tank as well. It does have the heart of a lion and very enjoyable to ride--even 1725+ miles in 5 days. revmaaatin.
