Please check out ebay for my 99 S3T for sale.

I have owned it for 3 years, it is a great bike and this is a great forum for me to lurk on.

Time to move on to something different (I am thinking about a KLR 650 this time)

Enjoy the ride folks.

Good luck with the sale of your Buell. While the KLR is a great bike, it's not the same as riding your Buell. I also own a DR650 and would prefer my S3T all day long. Well....except for those days were I feel like getting muddy : )

I want a KLX650(better suspension and a lighter bike overall IMHO) converted for street use.

So I'm with ya there. Street or dirt its ready for what ever you feel like.

Good Luck with your sale!

I have a KLR 650. I love the bike, it's a '99, largely converted to street use. I put a 17 tooth on the front, great for long highway runs, 16 is good for around town. There are awesome forums for the KLR. KLR650.net is a great resource for you. Do your research on the bike. There are lots and lots of mods, fixes, and improvements to be made.

As much as I love the KLR and will strive my best to keep it, (It's my first bike and the one I learned to ride on.), I was ready for something else as well. I take long trips, and while the bike does fine as it is now set up, I couldn't keep up with the Bro's when ever they decided to punch it, or when I needed to pass someone in a hurry. Plus I was just ready for a faster bike. The KLR is a fun and a joy to ride, but doesn't give you that punch and rush you get out of a Buell.

I wish you the absolute best of luck! Motorcycling is a wonderful thing with so many different ways to go about it.
