Good choice

Dress appropriately , looks good, did you add the gear or does it come with that package?

Came with it all. The hard bags are meh, but at least it had the pannier racks so I can just add bigger bags.

Looks like fun.

Hard bags AKA coolers. Just sayin, what could possibly go wrong!??

Gas? Electric?

Gas.

Nice! The ADV bike before ADV’ were cool

Nice! You'll love it. I had a 2017 WR250r that I bought brand new and enjoyed for quite a while. Nothing tops being able to go off road wherever and whenever you want to. Mine started to sit when I got my Ducati Monster so I ended up selling the Enduro.

I do miss riding. I just got tired of almost being run over every time I went out.

70 some miles so far. I dig. My arse hurts a bit. People in cars can fudge off.

Should have got the diesel. Close to 100mpg at 60mph. But I have heard they can be problematic. The gas ones are pretty foolproof and run forever. Buddy has one he commuted to work everyday for I don’t know how many years bike has like 60,000miles on it. Never a single problem.

Pfft. My WR seat was like sitting on a piece of lumber. I even bought those biker shorts with the ass pads in it.

Happily fudging off in air-conditioned splendor.

That was a military bike. They are beyond expensive to buy and maintain.

Already have some from my cycling days.

Excellent choice. The KLR-650 is the ADV Bike that invented the segment, and dollar for dollar is still the best choice out there.

Now you’re ready for the Trans America Trail.

I had dreams of riding across the country while stopping at various national parks and sites while camping along the way. Then I remembered that im diabetic with a family and responsibilities. I seriously envy the people that are able to do that though. There's a guy on YouTube that rode a Honda Trail 90 from the most northern part of Alaska to the most southern part of South America. Took him a few years but he recorded and posted it all. I live vicariously through others.

That machine looks like one of those offroad/touring hybrids. Should be nice if you want to hit the trails for a change of pace while out riding the pavement. BTW, I bought some of those padded undershorts specifically for taking long rides. They work pretty well for my kind of riding. Without those pads, my ass would be in excruciating pain after 125 miles. I can ride about 50 more than that before it gets really uncomfortable.
