I was looking through my pics tonight I came across my KLE 500 which I sold for my DRZ. I started to wonder why we don't see more of them on the road ? Granted it's slow and not alot of ground clearance but for a beginner or commuter it's a perfect bike. The motor is very smooth and has a nice beat to it. And it can do some offroading as well. I rode mine from George to Pretoria and it ran great. Seems more people prefer the KLE 650 as they are about the same price.

Taken near Uitenhage

I think Kawasaki should put that new 650 twin motor in that frame and put longer travel suspension on there and sell it for 10k less than a V-strom 650, bet it would sell then.
