I wanted to buy a Ulysses, but the only dealer within 300 miles was no help at all. Didn't have any stock, wouldn't return my calls. And this was when I was a prospect, what would happen when I was a customer?

So today I bought a KLR. Then I came home and phoned Happy Trails and ordered up the aluminum panniers and a whole load of other goodies.

It's red and silver and I pick it up tomorrow.

This has been a great site and I've enjoyed the company of all the members, but I expect I will be spending my time over at KLR650.net from now on.

Adios amigos.

Have fun on your new ride. Pop in time to time. It's a shame when dealers act like jackasses.

Why sell a product your not into? I just don't get it. You don't like Buells don't sell em. Don't treat the people who like/want them like second class people.

Don,
Stay in touch, some day if I ever make it up to BC you can show me some great rides in your area. Too bad on the Uly.

If you're going to be riding on the terrain in your profile pic, you're better off with the KLR anyway...

Congratulations!!!

I really miss my old KLR650. Owned many different types of bikes over the years, but the KLR is responsible for the vast majority of my fondest motorcycling memories.

In fact, I ended up buying my X1 as the KLR I had been drooling over sold the day before. Glad I ended up with the X1 but often wish I had the KLR.

I rode a KLR all over the New York City area for a couple years. It was an incredible motorcycle, you'll have a ball!

I had a KLR650 once then sold it to get my Buell S1.

I regret ever selling the KLR but after a few years I bought a DR650 which I actually like better than the KLR. My particular DR has no electric start, liquid cooling.

I would definately own another KLR.

The KLR is destined to go down in history as one of the best deals in motorcycling.
