Author Message   Birdy Posted on Saturday, March 19, 2011 - 06:12 pm:        I needed a diaphragm for my KLR's carb...same one fits a Sporty as they both use the Cv 40. the Kawasaki dealer didn't have it BUT the H-D dealer did and a LOT cheaper too boot! One short drive later my KLR runs a lot better than it ever did! I can out run a kid on a Big Wheel now! Now do I have a Kawa-Davidson? Or a Harly-Saki?   Dennis_c Posted on Saturday, March 19, 2011 - 06:31 pm:        Birdy   Crusty Posted on Saturday, March 19, 2011 - 06:44 pm:        Now do I have a Kawa-Davidson? Or a Harly-Saki? Maybe it's a Suki-Harley?   Kyrocket Posted on Saturday, March 19, 2011 - 07:22 pm:        Harley-Saki? Don't give them any ideas or they'll be putting their name on Japanese alcohol.   Birdy Posted on Saturday, March 19, 2011 - 07:24 pm:        Willy Beer?   Whisperstealth Posted on Saturday, March 19, 2011 - 07:42 pm:        Thanks for the info Birdy. I have a KLR, and will file this away.   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, March 20, 2011 - 04:28 pm:        my buddie has an 09 KLR, he was having some starting problems with it. it ended up being something in the carb, cant remember what. instead of fixing the stock vacuum slide he put a flat side mikuni on it. he says it runs and starts 100x's better now than it did when it was brand new. just something i thought i would share if you ever want to change it out.   Birdy Posted on Sunday, March 20, 2011 - 08:05 pm:        The KLR is my beater, ride to work, get groceries, kind of a two wheel station wagon. ANY Hot Rodden'...well that's for the XB! I mean who's going to hot rod a station wagon?   Mnrider Posted on Sunday, March 20, 2011 - 08:38 pm:        Hogasaki   Nik Posted on Sunday, March 20, 2011 - 08:43 pm:        I used to have a Suzuki gs500 that used the same brakes as a blast. At that point in time it was easier to get stuff from a Buell dealer, who knows now...   Britchri10 Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 07:50 am:        Blast parts from HD dealers are not usually a problem as they run the Blast as their RE bike.   Pwnzor Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 08:35 am:        Did you seriously ask who would hot rod a station wagon?????   Preybird1 Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 10:32 am:        I hot rod my 06 klr all day long. It will run in the twistiest with the best of them. I got the 7 gallon ims tank on the beast.   Saxon59 Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 08:38 pm:        A friend of mine rides a KTM 950Adventure,he was having a hard time finding shims for his valves,I did some asking at the H.D.dealer,turns out the V Rod uses the same shims and come in half sizes and are cheaper than what he had to order from the KTM dealer.Oh yea they were in stock.So I guess if you own a Kawi. or KTM and need parts go to the Harley dealer?
